Patella fractures account for 1% of all fractures but there is little in the contemporary literature regarding either an optimal standardized post-operative rehabilitation regimen or the long-term outcomes following these fractures. Tension band wire fixation for displaced patella fractures is a well-recognised and accepted method of operative treatment for these fractures. In this case the aut...

Dear Editor, I have greatly enjoyed reading the case report entitled “‘Femoral Condyle Fracture during Revision of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Case Report and a Review of Literature” in the issue of Arch Bone Jt Surg.2015; 3(2):137-40 with great interest. I would like to commend the authors for their detailed and valuable work. Although various case reports have described postope...

Radial nerve injury is a recognised complication associated with humeral shaft fracture. A case of iatrogenic radial nerve injury is presented following fracture reduction. The relevant anatomy, challenges in management of humeral fractures with associated radial nerve injury, and the importance of detailed clinical assessment and documentation are discussed.

Surgery for mandibular condyle fractures must allow direct vision of the fracture, reduce surgical trauma and achieve reduction and fixation while avoiding facial nerve injury. This prospective study was conducted to introduce a new surgical approach for open reduction and internal fixation of mandibular condyle fractures using a modified transparotid approach via the parotid mini-incision, and...

This tutorial outlines the detailed system for fractures of the condylar process at the precision level 3 and is organized in a sequence of sections dealing with the description of the classification system within topographical subdivisions along with rules for fracture coding and a series of case examples with clinical imaging. Basically, the condylar process comprises three fracture levels an...
