Depressed skull fracture is an inward buckling of the skull bones, often because of direct blow to a small surface area of the skull with a blunt object. Monoparesis is often among its clinical presentations, but midline depressed skull fracture presenting as motor weakness of both lower limbs (Paraperesis) has not yet been reported. We report the case of 55 year old male admitted to emergency ...

conclusions glenohumeral joint reduction with reconstruction of the humeral head seems to be possible even in a neglected locked posterior shoulder fracture-dislocation. if the depressed osteochondral fragment is still spheric, signs of the avascular necrosis are absent on ct, and mal:union: of the fragment has occurred, it is quite possible to reconstruct the head. although results of the case...

The use of increasingly precise, intelligent neurosurgery instruments that allow intraoperative accuracy, visualization, surgical access, has led to mastery of surgical techniques and the transformation of prognosis, the Mayfield three-pin skull clamp was designed to rigidly affix a patient's head to the operating table during craniotomy drilling and delicate microneurosurgery. However, these i...

Med. 1992, 166 (2), 229-238 A 45-year-old right-handed man had, for more than 20 years, a depressed fracture of the right parietal bone and selective impairment of movement vision in the left visual field ; an illusory overestimation of speed of moving ob...

A 30-year-old male was involved in a car accident. Radiographs revealed a depressed marginal fracture of the medial tibial plateau and an avulsion fracture of the fibular head. Magnetic resonance imaging showed avulsion fracture of Gerdy's tubercle, injury to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), posterior horn of the medial meniscus, and the attachments of the lateral collateral ligament and ...

BACKGROUND Hip fracture in older adults is associated with depression and frailty. This study examined the synergistic effects of depression and hip fracture on physical frailty, and the mediating role of the cortisol:dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) ratio. METHODS This was an observational longitudinal study of patients with a hip fracture carried out in a hospital setting and with fo...

148 Western Journal of Emergency Medicine Figure. Both anterior and posterior margins of the medial tibial plateau are distinctly visible but the anterior aspect of the lateral plateau is not (arrowheads), a subtle indicator of the depressed fracture. Associated sclerosis (arrow) is noted. Lateral image demonstrates a small knee joint effusion (small arrow). Three-dimensional computed tomograph...
