conclusions supracondylar fracture is the most common fracture type resulting from 4 - 8 year old boys’ falls. our findings indicate the critical nature of appropriate treatment in order to prevent severe complications. objectives the aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiology of elbow fracture in children admitted in alzahra hospital, isfahan, ir iran over a one year period. patients a...

conclusions although spinopelvic fracture dislocation injuries are severe high-energy entities, in cases with traumatic spondylolytic spondylolisthesis due to widening of the vertebral canal, neurologic deficit may not be seen at all. case presentation we described a 16-year-old girl with extremely severe axial trauma to the lumbosacral spine who presented with fracture dislocation of the lumbo...

background: fractures of the femoral shaft are mostly the result of high-energy accidents that also cause multiple trauma injuries, in particular ipsilateral knee and hip injuries. the purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of injuries associated with femoral shaft fractures and how many of them were undetected. methods: we studied 148 patients (150 femoral shaft fractures) with...

conclusions higher age of cyclists and increasing speed of the accident opponent significantly increase the likelihood of sustaining facial fractures. the use of bicycle helmets does not significantly reduce the incidence of mid-facial fractures, while being correlated with an even increased incidence of mandibular fractures. background the effectiveness of bicycle safety helmets in preventing ...

background femur fracture is one of the most common fractures in children. certain parameters such as the patient’s age, the exact location of fracture, type of fracture, the mechanism of fracture, and the accompanying injuries determine which one of the many treatment techniques be used in each case. objectives we aimed to compare the results of close and open techniques in pediatric femoral s...
