Congenital radio-ulnar synostosis (CRUS) is a rare skeletal malformation of the upper limb and the most common congenital functional disorder of the elbow joint, causing limitation in forearm rotational movements, whi...
Congenital proximal radioulnar synostosis(CPRUS)is a rare anomaly which is caused by abnormal fusion of the proximal radius and ulna during development.This is due to the failure of embryological separation,resulting ...
Radial head and neck fractures represent up to 14%of all pediatric elbow fractures and can be a difficult challenge in the pediatric patient.In up to 39%of proximal radius fractures,there is a concomitant fracture,whi...
BACKGROUND Congenital radioulnar synostosis(CRUS)is a rare deformity of the upper extremity.It is characterized by loss of rotation of the involved forearm and functional limitations in daily activities.No studies on ...
Objective To establish finite element models of skull, fronto-orbital advancement and fronto-orbital distraction osteogenesis of craniosynostosis, to analyze the mechanical characteristics of skull base and fronto-orb...

Filamin B (FLNB) is a large dimeric actin-binding protein which crosslinks actin cytoskeleton filaments into a dynamic structure. Lip to present, pathogenic mutations in FLNB are solely found to cause skeletal defor...
The most common cause of proximal radioulnar synostosis in adults is traumatic, usually after forearm fractures. Disabling complications are mainly loss of rotatory movements of the forearm. Various surgical procedure...
Craniosynostosis is a pathologic condition which is characterized by the premature fusion of cranial sutures.It may occur alone or in association with other anomalies making up various syndromes.Crouzon syndrome is th...
Synostosis of carpal bones originates from lack of cavitation at the site of the future joint space with subsequent chondrification and ossification during the 4th to 8th weeks of intrauterine life. It is mostly seen ...
Massive segmental bone loss due to chronic osteomyelitis represents a considerable challenge to orthopedic surgeons and is a limb threatening condition.The only option available in such a clinical situation is segment...
