Original abstract

A new fixation with threaded Medin K wires has been compared with standard AO technique for a two twist TBW. Thawed fresh frozen human elbow joints were used for this study. The gap distraction increased when a moment was applied and almost returned to its previous state when the moment was removed due to visco-elastic behaviour of the ligament. Early gap opening seems to be a featur of the TBW when loaded. The new technique of two partially threaded K wires may compete with the fixation of the two twist TBW under these clinical conditions.

Czech abstract

Nový způsob fixace pomocí dvou K-drátů Medin byl srovnáván se standardní cirklážní AO technikou. Ke studiu byly použity čerstvě rozmražené lidské loketní klouby. Při zatěžování TBW spoje rostoucím ohybovým momentem bylo pozorováno rozevírání lomové plochy v důsledku visko-elastického chování vaziva. Technika TBW se vyznačovala zrychleným rozevíráním lomových ploch. Nová technika pomocí dvou zkřížených K-drátů Medin tento problém účinně eliminovala a odstranila řadu dalších problémů tahové cirkláže.
