This study introduces using a metallic trocar as a guide for Kirschner pins, improving pin placement and protecting surrounding tissues. However, metal-on-metal friction can cause overheating issues.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Surgical instrumentation

Context:

  • Kirschner pins are essential orthopedic tools.
  • Accurate pin placement is crucial for successful bone fixation.
  • Protecting neurovascular structures during pin insertion is a key surgical consideration.

Purpose:

  • To present an innovative technique utilizing metallic trocars for guiding Kirschner pins.
  • To enhance the safety and precision of Kirschner pin insertion.
  • To mitigate risks to subcutaneous neurovascular structures.

Summary:

  • The proposed method employs metallic trocars, commonly used for venous catheter insertion, as guides for Kirschner pins.
  • Trocars of varying internal diameters accommodate 8/10 mm to 15/10 mm Kirschner pins.
  • Advantages include simplified pin guidance and enhanced protection of delicate tissues.
