The treatment of glenoid bone loss in the setting of recurrent shoulder instability remains a challenge. This is because of the nonanatomic nature and resultant incongruous joint resulting from most bony augmentation procedures. We present a novel technique for the management of glenoid bone deficiency by using a fresh osteochondral distal tibial allograft. We have found that the distal tibia h...

Operative correction for infantile and adolescent tibia vara has been described using both external and internal fixation. Gradual correction using a circular fixator offers the advantage of accurate coronal, sagittal, and axial plane correction without significant soft tissue dissection. This study evaluated the use of six-axis deformity analysis and the Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) for the corr...

Introduction: The tibia is most commonly fractured long bone in the body, as it has poor soft tissue coverage, medial surface is completely subcutaneous. The optimum method for skeletal stabilization of open fractures of the tibial shaft remains controversial. In recent years, unreamed intramedullary nailing has become an increasing attractive treatment method for tibial fractures. Due to high ...

Stress fracture of the proximal tibia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is very rare. We found only 16 cases in a review of the literature. We report the case of a 76-year-old obese woman who sustained a stress fracture of the right proximal tibia without trauma 18 months after TKA. Pain developed in the proximal medial aspect of the tibia during walking. Physical examination showed tendernes...

BACKGROUND Bone marrow lesions (BMLs), common osteoarthritis-related magnetic resonance imaging findings, are associated with osteoarthritis progression and pain. However, there are no articles describing the use of 3-dimensional quantitative assessments to explore the longitudinal relationship between BMLs and hyaline cartilage loss. The purpose of this study was to assess the cross-sectional ...

Skeletal integrity in meat-type chickens is affected by many factors including rapid growth rate, nutrition and genetics. To investigate the genetic basis of bone and mineral metabolism, a QTL detection study was conducted in an intercross between two lines of meat-type chickens divergently selected for their high (D +) or low (D -) digestive efficiency. Tibia size (length, diameter, volume) an...

OBJECTIVE Treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) remains a challenge. The autogenic iliac bone graft is important consistent of treatment for CPT. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of wrapping autogenic iliac bone graft in improvement of the curing opportunities of CPT. METHODS We combined Ilizarov fixator with intramedullary rodding of the tibia and wra...

We evaluated the efficacy of a cement gun to improve the depth of cement penetration in total knee arthroplasty. Ninety-one consecutive patients from two hospitals were recruited for this study. For Group I cement was applied to the tibial baseplate and the proximal tibia with fingers. Group 2 had similar application of cement to the tibial baseplate but cement was pressurized into the proximal...

BACKGROUND We aimed to determine specific formulae by which we are able to estimate the body stature from the length of ulna and tibia calculated from the X-rays in order to be a reference for skeletal remains-based identification in Iranian population. METHODS The length of right ulna and tibia of 49 male and 52 female adults, who were anatomically healthy, were measured on the antero-poster...
