refracture

None of the patients whose plate were removed had any report of refracture up to 6 months after removal of plate (last follow up).

The unique advantages of unicortical LHS, which have been proven beneficial, include preservation of endosteal blood supply (Goh et al., 2009), simplification of the plating surgery, avoiding potential over drilling or oversized screws (Dona et al., 2004) and reducing the risk of refracture after removal (Overturf et al., 2014 and Pater et al., 2014).

The patient who developed refracture and treated with hemiarthroplasty was not excluded from the evaluation because he had fracture 3 months after removal of the fixator.

The full year plan for 2018 includes drilling 49 SLH production wells, minor workovers on existing wells and minor refracture works.

Stress shielding produced by rigid plates can lead to an 8% refracture rate after plate removal.

However, PMMA has been reported to be associated with undesirable properties such as high setting temperature, leakage (7-10%), lung and distal emboli, lack of osseointegration, and significant stiffness mismatch with bone leading to subsequent adjacent fractures or even refracture of the augmented vertebra [1].

Subsequent formation and progressive growth of pseudoaneurysm resulted in pressure on the medial femoral diaphysis with scalloping of the cortex and an increased risk of refracture (Figure 3).

(5) report on 1049 patients with the overall complication rate of 18%; of the 245 patients in this group, the most common reasons for reoperation were nonunion (24%), refracture (24%), aseptic loosening (21%), and recurrent dislocation (16%).

You don't want him to refracture it and then end up with Fernando needing surgery, because a sixweek injury can then become a six-month injury."
