It can cause significant fetal/neonatal morbidity and mortality due to its size, vascular loading, possible rupture, and labor dystocia. Mostly cystic teratomas have favorable prognosis, but if untreated in uter...

This paper is an investigation of low rate loading of the shoulder. The paper first presents a review of the literature on the impact tolerance of the shoulder in high and low rate loading conditions. Currently, there are no injury criteria, nor biofidelic anthropomorphic test dummies for these low rate scenarios. This study investigates dummy loading situations that are known to be non-injurio...

McRobert’s position resolved 50% of cases,...
