Gunshot induced indirect femoral fracture: mechanism of injury and fracture morphology.
INTRODUCTION Indirect ballistic fractures occur when a projectile passes close to, but not contacting, the bone. The mechanism of how these fractures occur is not yet proven, but recently the acoustic shockwave has been excluded as a cause. The objective of this study is to determine whether the expanding temporary cavity, the collapse of this cavity or its oscillation causes these fractures. I...
متن کاملFracture Morphology and Fracture Management
doi:10.3415/VCOT-12-12-0154 Our first issue of VCOT for this year contains several papers pertaining to the study of fracture morphology, and the stabilization of fractures with bone plates (1-3). In addition, Herten and colleagues describe the characterization of mesenchymal stem cells isolated from bone marrow by a point-of-care device; these cells had osteogenic potential that could be expec...

متن کاملMechanisms of femoral fracture.
Mechanisms of femoral fracture of the condyles and shaft were experimentally investigated through controlled knee impact ofdenuded femurs in six human cadavers. High-speed movies recorded knee joint compression, femoral displacements and deformation, and fracture initiation. Fracture initiated at 10.6 + 2.7 kN knee load after 1.3 + 0.1 cm ofknec joint compression for a 10.1 kg rigid impact at 1...
