However, every day, children present in consultation for knee trauma. Conjugal plate fractures are by definition single to children. Any break in any solution of continuity of this plate is called an epiphyseal fracture or detachment. Objectives: To evaluate the results of surgical treatment of traumatic epiphyseal in detachments of the distal femur recent in children and adolescents. Patients and Method: This was a 13-month prospectively collected longitudinal descriptive study from September 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017. We identified and reviewed 20 medical records of recent traumatic epiphyseal detachments of the distal femur. The parameters studied were sociodemographic, lesion, surgical technique and evolutionary. Results: During the study period, the most affected group age was 12 to 17 years (85%) with an average of 14.65 ± 1.61 years (6 and 20 years). The victims were male (95%). The most frequent etiology was road traffic accident (95%), with a mean time to care of 26.42 ± 10.21 hours and Type II was frequently encountered (85%) with 35% of immediate complications. Cross-bracketing was the most commonly used surgical technique (85%). The result was good (65%). Conclusion: This study allowed us to observe a significant hospital incidence of epiphyseal detachment fractures of the distal femur. Cross pinning was the most commonly used surgical technique with fewer complications (35%) and a satisfactory result in 90% of cases.展开更多

Pelvic limb fractures may involve one or more of the bones. They constitute a real public health problem, which requires the identification of the factors inherent to this phenomenon for better prevention, but also for quality management of fractures and sequelae. Objectives: Were to describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic profile of pelvic limb fractures in Timbuktu Hospital. Patients and Method: We conducted a prospective, descriptive study in the Surgery Department of Timbuktu Hospital, covering a period of one year from January 1 to December 31, 2017. We collected 39 patients who presented with fractures of the pelvic limbs, who were hospitalized and monitored throughout our study. Results: We obtained a hospital frequency of 2.86% limb fractures. Among the 39 patients included in our study, the male sex was predominant in 69.2% of cases, the average age of our patients was 20.5 years. Pupils and students were in the majority in 48.7% of cases. Road traffic accidents were the most common cause of fracture with 59.0% of cases. The tibia was the most affected segment in 38.5% of cases. Surgical treatment was predominant in 64.0% of cases. We obtained very good results in 94.87% of cases. Conclusion: Limb fractures remain frequent due to road traffic accidents. Osteosynthesis treatment provides a good result with fewer complications.展开更多

The aim of this study was to describe the radioclinical and therapeutic characteristics and to assess the functional result. Patients and Methods: This study is about a continuous descriptive and prospective study over a period of 5 years. It has been conducted from March 2013 to February 2018 at the Ségou Hospital, a second referral hospital in Mali. The functional results were evaluated by the score of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS). Results: Seven cases of subtalar dislocation fractures were diagnosed in six male patients with an average age of 38 years (36 to 47 years old). In five cases the etiology of the trauma was a motorcycle accident and a fall from height. The lesion was bilateral in one case. The average time to care was 3 hours (1 to 9 hours). There was one case of open dislocation fracture with talus enucleation. The dislocation was medial in 6 cases and lateral in one case. It was pure in three cases. The treatment was orthopedic in 2 cases and surgical in 5 cases. The post-operative complications were complicated by an infection of the operative site in one case. The average length of hospital stay was 4 days. The functional result was excellent in 2 cases;good in 2 cases, fair in 2 cases and poor for 1 case. Conclusion: Subtalar dislocation is a rare and serious lesion of the posterior tarsus. The long-term prognosis depends on the earliness of treatment and the severity of the associated injuries.展开更多
