Background: The most common pediatric elbow fracture is supracondylar humeral fracture which accounts for 60% ofelbow fractures in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of open reduction and internal fixation oftype III supracondylar humeral fractures using a Triceps sparing posterior approach.Methods: In total, 98 patients were evaluated from June 2007 t...

Amaç: Çalışmamızın amacı kliniğimizde suprakondiler humerus kırığı tanısı alarak cerrahi olarak tedavi edilen ve sonrası poliklinik takibi yapılan hastalardan açık kapalı redüksiyon uygulananların sonuçlarının retrospektif değerlendirilmesi karşılaştırılmasıdır. Gereç Yöntemler :2014 –2020 tarihleri arasında ile uygulanmış 2-10 yaş arası çocuklar değerlendirmeye alındı. Kırık redüksiyonu uygula...

We describe the general algorithms of Nash iteration in numerical analysis. We make a particular choice of algorithm involving multilevel collocation and smoothing. Our test case is that of a linear differential equation, although the theory allows for the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. We describe the general situation completely, and employ an adaptation involving a...

The supracondylar fracture of the humerus in children remains the most challenging injury for the orthopedic surgeon. It is important to consider the options of treatment very carefully and tailor the treatment according to the characteristics of each fracture. In this study we observed outcomes of surgical procedures using the Kirschner-wire for the dislocated (displaced) supracondylar fractur...

BACKGROUND Percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation represents the classic treatment for displaced supracondylar humeral fractures in childhood. This type of treatment first requires satisfactory reduction of the fracture. Failure to achieve a satisfactory reduction or inadequate stabilization can result in instability of the fracture fragments, which can result in either an unsatisfactory cosmetic...

Considering the differences in the social and ecological requirements of the different participants, the cohesive movement of animal groups is an amazing phenomenon. Associations composed of many species, each with its own intraspecific social organization and species-specific requirements, seem even more improbable. Yet mixed-species fish schools (Ehrlich and Ehrlich 1973; Alevizon 1976), ungi...
