Table 3.
Comparison of the major complications in three groups.
ESIN-RPS | KW-R | ESIN-A | P1/t1 or χ2 | P2/t2 or χ2 | P3/t3 or χ2 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mal-union | 0 | 4 | 2 | / | 0.696/0.153 | / |
Nerve injury | 0 | 0 | 2 | / | / | / |
Infection(superior/deep) | 0 | 6 | 0 | / | / | / |
Tendon injury | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0.522/0.361 | / | / |
Secondary fracture | 0 | 2 | 0 | / | / | / |
Total | 1 | 13 | 4 | 0.034/4.480 | 0.363/0.828 | 0.087/2.633 |
Where P is the statistical probability, t is the statistical quantity, P1/t1 is ESIN-RP vs. KW-R, P2/t2 is ESIN-RP vs. ESIN-A, and P3/t3 is KW-R vs. ESIN-A. χ2 is the Fisher's exact test result.
