objective: to evaluate and report the functional results of surgical management of intercondylar fractures of the humerus in adults using a novel dual plating technique. methods: a total number of 60 patients with riseborough and radin type ii, iii, and iv intercondylar humerus fractures were operated with open reduction through a trans-olecranon approach and internal fixation using two plates ...

conclusions time plays an important role in treatment results of femoral neck fractures. to treat the fractures, closed reduction and fixation using cannulated screws may still be the best option. objectives the present study aimed to evaluate long-term results of delayed fixation of femoral neck fractures using cannulated screws. patients and methods this retrospective descriptive-analytical s...

The authors report a rare per-operative complication of intra-pelvic migration of dynamic hip screw, during osteosynthesis of an inter-trochanteric fracture. Possible reasons of migration are analyzed along with the importance of careful execution of the surgical technique to avoid such iatrogenic complications and medico-legal implications.

T-Condylar fracture of the distal humerus is rare in the skeletally immature children and is very rare in young children, under 9 years of age. This fracture has been classified  as:  type A ( minimally displaced or undisplaced), type B (displaced  but  not comminuted ) and type C (displaced and comminuted). Herein, we report a T-Condylar fracture of the distal humerus in a 5-yr-old boy. This f...

Isolated fractures of the anterior column and anterior wall are a relatively rare subgroup of acetabular fractures. We report our experience of 30 consecutive cases treated over ten years. Open reduction and internal fixation through an ilioinguinal approach was performed for most of these cases (76.7%) and percutaneous techniques were used for the remainder. At a mean follow-up of four years (...

Some people may be laughing when looking at you reading in your spare time. Some may be admired of you. And some may want be like you who have reading hobby. What about your own feel? Have you felt right? Reading is a need and a hobby at once. This condition is the on that will make you feel that you must read. If you know are looking for the book enPDFd current concepts of internal fixation of...

background: trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation and perilunate dislocations are among uncommon injuries, most commonly seen in young patients due to high energy trauma. the treatment can be achieved either surgically by open reduc tion and internal fixation or closed reduction and casting.   methods: to compare surgical versus non-operative results of treatment of trans-scaphoid peri...

Unicondylar fractures of the lower end of the femur are uncommon injuries that usually occur in the saggital plane 2. Coronal (tangential) plane fractures, first described by Hoffa in 1904, are unusual.(1,2, 3,4) We report our experience with three cases and the mechanism of injury is discussed. Open reduction and internal fixation is mandatory for good long-term results.

AIM The aim of this study was to determine the outcome of transoral approach alone to treat the mandibular angle fracture using single 2.0 mm miniplate. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, 28 patients were included and treated with 2.0 mm single miniplate osteosynthesis at upper border along Champy's line of osteosynthesis using transoral approach alone. RESULTS All the cases were treated ...
