BACKGROUND The treatment of non union can be challenging with a variety of surgical options available to achieve bone consolidation. Robert Judet first described a method of osteo-periosteal decortication in 1963. He stated that by elevating cortical chips that remain attached to the periosteum and overlying soft tissues surrounding the site of non-union, combined with mechanical support, the b...

SINCE Ridley (1951) described his operation, there has been considerable interest and speculation about the possible reaction of the human eye to the presence of an acrylic lenticulus. The clinical impression has been that a certain amount of irritation occurs, as evidenced by frequent iridocyclitis and almost invariable pigment disturbance, but a difference of opinion appears to exist as to th...

Acetabular fractures are produced by high energy injuries that often cause dislocation of the fragments with gaps and steps (Olson et al., 1997). The goal of operative treatment of such fractures is to restore acetabular anatomy with perfect fragment reduction and stable fixation in order to enable early joint movement (Letournel and Judet, 1993). The fixation of the fragments is not strong eno...

Fracture of the femoral head is a severe, relatively uncommon injury; typically, it may have associated with traumatic posterior dislocation hip joint or without acetabulum fracture. The Pipkin classification most commonly used system. Controversies include preferred surgical approach (anterior versus posterior) ganz safe and whether to perform fragment excision internal fixation. Presenting ca...
