Anatomic factors in the femoral implantation of the Ilizarov external fixator

Abstract: Ilizarov's method of external fixation with compression or distraction for lesions of the limbs demonstrates new possibilities in osteogenesis. Its performance with double horizontal pinning on several external rings calls for precautions to avoid lesions of the vessels, nerves and joints. This study, based on anatomic sections radiographed after opacification of the arterial system, makes it possible to propose rules for insertion of the pins. Insertion of the anteromedial pins of the thigh should be made 2 c… Show more

“…This classic anatomic description of the vascular anatomy of the thigh does not suffice for a safe placement of percutaneous pins. 16 This prompted several authors to carry out either radiological studies using three-dimensional computed angiography 6 , 17 or anatomical studies using different metric rules on dissected cadaveric lower limb preparations 11 , 16 , 18 21 to appraise the spatial relationship between femoral arteries and the medial aspect of the femur at indexed levels with defining a reliable safe corridor of the femur for pin insertion.…”

“…Additionally, neurovascular risks may arise still during limb lengthening due to the changing relationship of the pin or wire as it tracks through the femur, potentially bringing it into contact with neurovascular structures, even though the initial insertion had been done correctly. 16 , 24…”

“…συσκευή Ilizarov) είτε μονόπλευρο, αποτελούμενο από ένα κεντρικό σώμα επιμήκυνσης και κοχλιωτές βελόνες μισού σπειρώματος, είτε υβριδικό αποτελούμενο από επιμέρους στοιχεία των δύο πρώτων. Ένα σταθερό σύστημα, που τοποθετείται ιδανικά έτσι ώστε να μην περιορίζει σημαντικά τη λειτουργικότητα των δορυφορικών αρθρώσεων, επιτρέπει την εφαρμογή πλήρους φόρτισης στο σκέλος και διασφαλίζει την παρουσία μηχανικών και βιολογικών συνθηκών για την ανάπτυξη της νέοοστεογένεσης [30][31][32]. β) Τη διενέργεια κορτικοτομής ή χαμηλής ενέργειας οστεοτομίας, με στόχο τη διαφύλαξη του περιοστέου κατά πρώτο λόγο αλλά και του ενδοστέου και των ενδομυελικών αγγείων, όσο αυτό είναι δυνατό.…”
