Bilateral stress fracture of distal fibula and tibia--case report.
The article presents a very rare case of bilateral distal tibial and fibular stress fractures in a 58-year-old white male. Excessive work load was undoubtedly the direct cause of the fractures as the patient's job involved carrying heavy (about 7 kg) packs of newspapers up stairs for 4 hours every night, with the distance covered amounting to approximately 80 floors. The available literature do...
متن کاملA case report of plastic deformity of fibula and fracture of tibia
Background: Plastic deformity is a fixed deformity of bones after application of force which is in contrast to elastic deformity, so it remains unchanged. It is a rare condition and is seen more commonly in upper extremity (forearm). Inability to recognize it causes limitation of motion and remaining of angular deformity. It occurs more commonly in children because of flexibility of their bones...
متن کاملWeakness of extensor hallucis longus after removal of non-vascularised fibula as an autograft.
The upper three-quarters of the fibula is commonly used as a non-vascularised autograft. Subsequent to this isolated weakness of extensor hallucis longus may occur. We have studied 26 patients in whom the upper and middle thirds of the fibula had been harvested as a graft through Henry's posterolateral approach. Isolated weakness of extensor hallucis longus was found after operation in ten pati...
متن کاملThe fibula-flexor hallucis longus osteomuscular flap.
Limb salvage after loss of bone and soft tissue may require many operations to obtain soft-tissue cover and bony continuity. We describe a fibula-flexor hallucis longus osteomuscular flap which can provide both soft tissue and bone in a single stage. The flap is based on the peroneal vessels and is covered by a split-thickness skin graft. We report the results in five patients with an average b...
متن کاملIrreducible distal radial fracture due to extensor pollicis longus tendon interposition: a case report
Various causes have been reported for irreducible fractures of the distal radius. Most of them have been reported in children.We report a case of irreducible distal radial fracture in an 18-year-old Caucasian male patient. The fracture was not reducible by closed methods and extensor pollicis tendon was found to be interposed during surgical intervention. At one year follow-up, the patient had ...
