[Reoperations for mechanical complications of femoral osteosynthesis. Analysis of 20 cases].
Based on a study of 220 femoral osteosynthesis, the results of 20 second surgical operations because of mechanical complications sat in 19 patients. These complications occurred on 15 screwed plates (6 breakings, 6 angulations, 3 dismounting) and 5 nailings (4 proximal migrations, 1 angulation). The critical analysis about the first osteosynthesis showed some technical error in several cases. Pseudarthrosis (9.2 p.c.) was observed in all mechanical complications at the plates A second surgical operations, thanks to a new osteosynthesis associated, in 8 cases, with a cortico-spungoïd osseous graft led to 85 p.c. of good and very good results and 15 p.c. of satisfactory results. No post surgery complication was observed.
