Study Design: A retrospective analysis of patients with subcondylar fractures treated via a transmasseteric anteroparotid approach by the Oral and Maxillofacial Department at the University of Oklahoma. Objective: The goal of this study was to evaluate complications, morbidity, and safety with the transmasseteric anteroparotid approach for treatment of subcondylar fractures, and compare it to other findings previously reported in the literature. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted that consisted of 23 surgically treated patients in the past 2 years for subcondylar fractures. Only patients with pre-operative malocclusion and who underwent open reduction with internal fixation with the transmasseteric anteroparotid (TMAP) approach were included. Exclusion criteria included 1) patients treated with closed reduction 2) patients who failed the minimum of 1, 3, and 6-week post-operative visits. The examined parameters were the degree of mouth opening, occlusal relationship, facial nerve function, incidence of salivary fistula and results of imaging studies. Results: 20 of the surgically treated patients met the inclusion criteria. Two patients were excluded due to poor post-operative follow up and 1 was a revision of an attempted closed reduction by an outside surgeon that presented with pre-existing complications. There were no cases of temporary or permanent facial nerve paralysis reported. There were 3 salivary fistulas and 2 sialoceles, which were managed conservatively and resolved within 2 weeks, and 2 cases of inadequate post-surgical maximal incisal opening (<40 mm) were observed. Conclusion: The transmasseteric anteroparotid approach is a safe approach for open reduction and internal fixation of low condylar neck and subcondylar fractures, and it has minimal complications.

The Bosworth ankle fracture-dislocation is a rare injury and is often irreducible because of an entrapped proximal fragment of the fibula behind the posterior tibial tubercle. Repeated closed reduction or delayed open reduction may result in several complications. Thus, early open reduction and internal fixation enable a better outcome by minimizing soft-tissue damage. We report on a 27-year-old man who underwent open reduction and internal fixation after multiple attempts at failed closed reduction, complicated by severe soft-tissue swelling, rhabdomyolysis, and delayed peroneal nerve palsy around the ankle.

Objective High-grade pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures are commonly treated with closed reduction and internal fixation with percutaneous pinning. When this fails, open reduction followed by internal fixation is the widely accepted procedure of choice. Use of a lateral external fixator was recently described as an optional procedure, but evidence is scarce. Methods We investigated the outcomes of upper limbs treated by either open reduction with internal fixation or closed reduction and external fixation. Results Twenty-one patients completed the long-term follow-up; 11 underwent open reduction, and 10 underwent external fixation. Most patients in both groups reported excellent satisfaction. In both groups, the modified Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score was extremely low and the average elbow range of motion was almost identical. Radiographic analysis consisting of Baumann’s angle and the carrying angle revealed no statistical difference between the two groups. Discussion Optional treatment using a linear external fixator for complex nonreducible supracondylar humerus fractures yielded acceptable clinical and radiographic results, as with open reduction. Our sample size was small, but the promising results may assist in the implementation of an alternative surgical procedure, especially in more complicated cases involving flexion-type fractures or severe soft tissue damage and swelling.

Background: Supracondylar fracture of the distal humerus is one of the commonest fracture in pediatric age group. Though there is consensus of treating type III fracture operatively, no study has compared the outcome between Closed Reduction and Percutaneous Pinning (CRPP) and Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) with k-wire in our setup. Materials and Methods: Retrospective comparison study was done on eighty seven cases of Type III supracondylar fracture of distal humerus underwent operative procedure. Fifty four (54) cases underwent CRPP and 33 cases were managed with ORIF with k-wire, and they were followed up till 6 months post-operatively. Results : The mean time for radiological union in patient who underwent CRPP was 4.37±0.94 weeks and that for the patient who underwent ORIF was 4.45±0.13 weeks, the difference of which was statistically insignificant (p-value >0.05). 83.3% of CRPP group and 78.8% in ORIF group had excellent functional outcome and only 3% in ORIF group had poor functional outcome. Conclusion: Though both the group don’t have significant advantage of functional outcome among each other CRPP with limited attempt should be preferred to ORIF with k-wire for the advantage of avoiding surgical scar and reducing surgery time and exposure to anaesthetic agents.
