Computer-assisted fluoroscopy for LISS plate fixation in femur fractures reduced procedure time and radiation exposure. Accuracy was comparable to conventional fluoroscopy, with no significant differences in plate placement or screw fixation.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomedical engineering
  • Surgical techniques

Background:

  • Accurate placement of the Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) plate is crucial for successful femur fracture fixation.
  • Conventional fluoroscopic techniques may be associated with challenges in achieving optimal plate positioning.
  • Computer-assisted techniques offer potential improvements in surgical accuracy and efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the accuracy of LISS plate placement on a model femur using a fluoroscopy-based computer-assisted technique versus conventional fluoroscopy.
  • To evaluate differences in procedural duration and radiation exposure between the two techniques.

Main Methods:

  • A laboratory study utilizing a model femur.
  • Comparison of fluoroscopy-based computer-assisted technique with conventional fluoroscopic technique for LISS plate placement.

  • Assessment of plate positioning relative to the diaphysis and condylar area, and evaluation of screw purchase and re-drilling requirements.

    • Main Results:

    • A significant difference was observed in the maximum distance of the plate to the bone diaphysis between the two techniques.
    • No significant differences were found in plate proximity to the condylar area, screw purchase, or the need for re-drilling.
    • The computer-assisted technique demonstrated significantly shorter procedure duration and reduced radiation exposure.

    Conclusions:

    • Fluoroscopy-based computer-assisted technique provides comparable accuracy to conventional fluoroscopy for LISS plate fixation in a model femur.
    • The computer-assisted approach offers significant advantages in reducing operative time and radiation exposure.
    • This technique may represent a more efficient and safer alternative for LISS plate application in distal femur fractures.
