Mandible Fractures account for 5% of all facial fractures. The most common mandible fractures are those in the condylar region followed by angle and then body A good thing about Mandibular children comparison to adults is that their embedded tooth buds hold fragments like a glue. Also, neck which short thick tends resist fracture therefore majority un-displaced type. purpose present case series...

BACKGROUND Proximal femoral geometry may be a risk factor of osteoporotic hip fractures. However, there existed great differences among studies depending on race, sex and age of subjects. The purpose of the present study is to analyze proximal femoral geometry and bone mineral density (BMD) in the osteoporotic hip fracture patients. Furthermore, we investigated proximal femoral geometric parame...

BACKGROUND Femoral neck fractures typically occur as a result of high-energy mechanisms among non-geriatric patients. Complications, including femoral neck shortening, non-union, and avascular necrosis, are relatively common after the internal fixation of this fracture pattern. These complications have serious effects on young patients. The Pauwels classification, which is the first biomechanic...

neglected, untreated and delayed femur neck fractures are commonly encountered and the treatment dilemma arises especially when the patient is physiologically young and osteosynthesis is the preferred option. controversy exists in the current literature as the various head salvage surgeries like valgus subtrochanteric osteotomy, non-vascularized fibular bone grafting, muscle pedicle bone grafti...

Fractures of the talus are uncommon injuries that can have devastating consequences. The blood supply to the talus is tenuous and injuries are associated with a higher incidence of avascular necrosis and malunion. Talar neck fractures are the most common fractures. This review looks at the different types of fractures of the talus, particularly focusing on talar neck fractures. The diagnosis an...

Diagnosis of occult hip fractures by initial radiographs remains challenging in the emergency department. Previously, the gold standard for accurate diagnosis of occult hip fractures was magnetic resonance imaging. This study used initial radiographs obtained in the emergency department to evaluate specific signs and measurements as diagnostic references for occult femoral neck fractures in eld...

Proximal femoral neck and peritrochanteric fractures are a devastating musculoskeletal injury resulting in markedly increased patient morbidity and mortality. As the annual incidence of fracture continues to increase, there is a recognized need to improve clinical outcomes following fixation, especially in peritrochanteric fractures. While many factors are associated with adverse patient outcom...

BACKGROUND Overgrowth after pediatric femoral shaft fractures is well documented; however, overgrowth of the femoral neck after hip fractures has not been especially reported previously. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of femoral neck overgrowth after hip fractures in children. METHODS From January 1990 to December 2012, there were 30 consecutive pa...

Talar neck fractures are usually the result of high-energy trauma. It remains controversial whether talar neck fractures require emergent treatment. Most surgeons recommend the use of dual surgical approaches, anteromedial and anterolateral, to allow accurate visualization and anatomic reduction. It is important to carefully preserve any remaining talar blood supply. Obtaining satisfactory clin...
