The operative treatment of intraarticular Smith fractures.

Twenty-one intraarticular palmar displaced fractures of the distal radius operated on between 1990 and 1995 were reviewed with a mean follow-up of 27.3 months (range, 8-54). Fifteen fractures were treated with palmar T-plates, two in combination with an external fixator. Five fractures were treated with external fixators and K-wires, and one fracture was treated with percutaneous K-wires and a cast. In six patients cancellous bone graft from the iliac crest was used. The most satisfactory clinical and radiological results were obtained by anatomical reconstruction of the articular surface. The favoured method remains stabilization with palmar T-plates. K-wires with a cast should only be used in simple articular fractures with a large palmar fragment.

[Portal circulation following the Warren operation--computerized tomography study of portal hemodynamics 5 to 11 years following distal splenorenal anastomosis].

18 patients underwent CT-investigation with bolus injection of contrast medium 5 to 11 years after splenorenal Warren shunt. According to this investigation all patients were found to have developed hepatofugal collaterals in consequence of distal splenorenal anastomotic suction. In most cases the portal liver perfusion was maintained. These effects are not homogeneous and show variations from patient to patient.
