This study analyzed the results obtained after revision of failed ORIF of proximal humeral fractures using reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). METHODS Fifty-four shoulders of 53 patients with a subjectively unacceptable outcome after ORIF of a complex f...

Effectiveness and Safety of Interventions for Treating Adults with Displaced Proximal Humeral Fracture: A Network Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review

PURPOSE Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a comparatively new evidence-based technique in medical disciplines which compares the relative benefits associated with multiple interventions and obtains hierarchies of these interventions for various treatment options. We evaluated the effectiveness and safety of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), hemiarthroplasty (HA), reverse shoulder arthro...

The Use of Dual Reconstruction Plates for Failed Fixation of Patellar Fracture after Total Knee Replacement: A Case Report

Patellar fracture after total knee replacement (TKR) is one of the challenging problems in periprosthetic fracture. Open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF), as tension band wiring (TBW), usually required in cases with extensor mechanism disruption. However, many studies reported a high failure rate after using this technique. In this report, we presented an interesting case of periprosthet...
