Objective: To evaluate the donor site morbidity of iliac and fibular nonvascularized bone graft after mandibular resection. Material Methods: This study was guided by Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) in PubMed, Proquest, Science Direct, Ebsco. A total 12 studies met criteria humans using grafts reconstruction Results: greater proportion patients received (...

J.H., a man aged 24 years, was knocked down by a car and admitted to hospital on January 13, 1961. His injuries were:a comminuted fracture of ,he mid-shaft of the right femur, an open comminuted fracture of the shaft of the right tibia, a fractured right fibula, a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee, and a fracture of the base of the terminal phalanx of the right hallux....

Premature physeal closure (PPC) may lead to clinically significant progressive angular deformity or leg length discrepancy. Many variables seem play a role in determining which injuries result PPC. A 8- year-old boy sustained non-displaced fracture of distal tibia and fibula. He showed no signs PPC at 7 months post-injury. Seven years later, his ankle became painful. had developed fibula causin...

It is uncommon for tire explosion related injuries on the lower extremity. The bilateral lower extremities were injured by tire explosion when the patient was seated in a bus. She sustained an open fracture with partial bone loss in the right calcaneus (a comminuted fracture in the right ankle joint) and a closed comminuted fracture in the left tibia and fibula. This damage was caused by uncont...

RATIONALE Anatomical characteristics, such as subcutaneous position and minimal muscle cover, contribute to the complexity of fractures of the distal third of the tibia and fibula. Severe damage to soft tissue and instability ensure high risk of delayed bone union and wound complications such as nonunion, infection, and necrosis. PATIENT CONCERNS This case report discusses management in a 54-...

segmental defects of the tibia are challenging therapeutic problems for both the physician and the patient. these defects may be caused by severe trauma, infection, tumors and congenital processes. several different techniques have been described for treatment of these defects including the papineau technique, allograft reconstruction, bone transport using the ilizarov frame, free vascularized ...

OBJECTIVES The purpose is to study the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and autologous platelet concentrates in healing the fibula bone of rabbits after induced fractures. METHODS A total of 128 male New Zealand albino rabbits, between 6-8 months old, were subjected to a total osteotomy of the proximal portion of the right fibula. After surgery, the animals were divided into four groups (...

Abstract Background To compare the efficacy of three different fixation methods fibula combined with external tibia for treatment extra-articular open fractures distal and fibula. Methods From January 2017 to July 2019, 91 cases were treated fixator, was fixed non-fixation (group A, n = 35), plate-screw B, 30) Kirschner wire C, 26). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, surgical implan...

Nineteen patients were prospectively randomized for operative treatment of their ankle fracture to be supplemented with or without ankle arthroscopy. All patients had an SER or PER fracture with an intact medial malleolus requiring operative treatment without evidence of intra-articular debris preoperatively. All patients underwent plate fixation of their fibula fracture and had a similar posto...

INTRODUCTION Not enough literature is available to evalute the wound complication rate of plates type in distal fibular fractures. AIM The aim of our study was to compare wound complications of using a third tubular plate compared to LCP distal fibula plate. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study is a retrospective single-centre study in which was performed plating of fibula in closed ankle fractu...
