Previous studies have demonstrated that populations differ from each other in size and proportion, and that these differences can affect metric assessment of sex. This paper establishes standards for determining sex from fragmentary and complete tibiae in the modern Croatian population. Measurements were taken on 180 tibiae (109 male and 71 female) from positively identified victims of the 1991...

High energy trauma such as road traffic accidents, are a common cause of lower extremity fractures. Tibia fractures the second most fractures, and distal tibia deserve special attention due to relatively lesser amount necessary fracture, propensity for complications, nonunion, malunion, infections, skin cover complications. In this study, we compare discuss outcomes two well-established modalit...

high tibia osteotomy is a common procedure in orthopedic surgery. a precise overview on indications, patients selection, pre-operative planning, surgical technique, methods of fixation, and complications have been presented. this paper focused on the points that should be considered to achieve good long-term outcomes. high tibia osteotomy is a common procedure in orthopedic surgery. a precise o...

We report the genetic relationship between growth and bone quality traits in a random mating broiler control population. Traits studied were growth rates from week 0 to 4 [body weight gain (BWG) 0 to 4], from week 0 to 6 (BWG 0 to 6), and residual feed intake (RFI) from week 5 to 6 (RFI 5 to 6). Bone quality traits were obtained at 6 weeks of age. These traits were shank weight (SW), shank leng...

introduction: the objective of this study was to evaluated effect of retinoic acid (ra) on the tibia osteogenesis in the chick embryos. materials and methods: for this purpose 0.75mg ra dissolved in 2ml dimthylsulfoxide (dmso) was droped on the limb bud of chick embryos at sixth day of incubation. the osteogenesis of tibia in ra-treated embryos were compared with normal control and dmso-treated...

Introduction: Bone graft is harvested from bone and used to stimulate bone healing due to its properties. The aims of the study were to compare the quantity of graft harvested from proximal tibia and iliac crest, and the complications at these donor sites. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective study carried out on all consecutive patients who had orthopaedic procedures that required bon...
