A simple aid to fracture reduction in the digit

چکیده
BACKGROUND Bladder injury during laparoscopic incisional hernia repair has a reported incidence of 0.5%.1 Mesh placement during repair may be difficult when the fascial defect extends towards the pubis. The bladder may need to be separated from the peritoneum in order to place the mesh safely and achieve adequate mesh overlap.2 We propose a simple intra-operative technique to help identify bladder position and better define the plane for dissection.

Effect of phenylephrine spray on closed reduction of nasal fractures in patients under general anesthesia
Introduction: As the most anterior part of the face, the nose is more prone to trauma than other parts of the face, thereby making it the most common facial fracture site. Closed reduction has long been used as the standard treatment of the nasal fracture, which can be performed outpatiently or inpatiently. Bleeding due to the fracture can be minimized by adopting certain strategies before the ...
متن کاملA simple and efficient plasticity-fracture constitutive model for confined concrete
A plasticity-fracture constitutive model is presented for prediction of the behavior of confined plain concrete. A three-parameter yield surface is used to define the elastic limit. Volumetric plastic strain is defined as hardening parameter, which together with a nonlinear plastic potential forms a non-associated flow rule. The use of non-associated flow rule improves the prediction of the dil...
متن کاملLeveraging the plate: reliably restoring volar tilt of distal radius fractures.
Restoration of volar tilt is critical when performing open reduction and internal fixation of distal radius fractures. A reproducible technique is required to consistently achieve this goal. A simple technique using the locking plate and an electrocautery scratch pad as reduction tools can reliably generate volar tilt. This technique can be performed with minimal aid from surgical assistants.
متن کاملA simple exercise to encourage precise suture placement
DISCUSSION We have found this method extremely useful when fixing fractures of the digits where optimal access to the fracture site is required while continued traction is necessary to maintain reduction. This is particularly the case in fractures of the middle phalanx where alternative methods of applying traction may interfere with access to the fracture site. Although it is not an original p...
متن کاملSimultaneous Dorsal Base Fracture and FDP Avulsion of Distal Phalanx of the Little Finger
Avulsion injury of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) with concomitant fracture of the distal phalanx dorsal base is uncommon. Simultaneous avulsion fractures of the insertion of this tendon associated with rupture of the tendon from the bony fragment and combination with dorsal base fracture is very rare and also complicated. A 36- year- old man fell and injured his right little finger. FDP ...
