The use of cannulated screw without protrusive head in Colles fractures could avoid some of the drawbacks of conventional pinning. In order to compare the mechanical resistance of Kirshner wires versus cannulated screws we designed a animal model of Colles fractures and tested three types of osteosynthesis: A: K-wires, B: Herbert cannulated screw, C: specific cannulated screws.After creating a 10 mm defect in three sets of 10 fresh turkey tibia, 3 types of osteosynthesis were done and tested in compression with an Adamel Lhomargy machine: set A: K-wire fixation, set B: Herbert screws fixation and set C: specifics screws fixation.The compression strength needed for failure of the fixations were: for the K-wires (set A): 52 N +/- 17; for the Herbert screws (set B): 93 N +/- 39; for the specifics screws (set C): 160 N +/- 48; (p0.0001).The use of an animal model makes the experimentation easier and the sampling more homogeneous. In this model, resistance to compression of the cannulated screw was better than K-wires and the specific cannulated screw better than Herbert screw. Therefore clinical trial of osteosynthesis with cannulated screw in Colles fracture could be considered. |
