BACKGROUND In the field of minimally invasive surgery(MIS)for the treatment of hallux valgus(HV),different techniques have begun to emerge in the literature concerning the distal osteotomy of the first metatarsal bone...
BACKGROUND Adult distal humeral fractures(DHF)comprise 2%-5%of all fractures and 30%of all elbow fractures.Treatment of DHF may be technically demanding due to fracture complexity and proximity of neurovascular struct...
BACKGROUND Radiocarpal dislocations are rare but potentially devastating injuries.Poorer outcomes are associated with inadequate or lost reduction,such as ulnar translocation,but no consensus exists on the ideal fixat...
BACKGROUND Endoprosthetic distal femoral replacement(DFR)is a well-established salvage procedure following resection of malignant tumors within the distal femur.Use of an all-polyethylene tibial(APT)component is cost-...
BACKGROUND Neuromuscular scoliosis is commonly associated with a large pelvic obliquity.Scoliosis in children with cerebral palsy is most commonly managed with posterior spinal instrumentation and fusion.While consens...
BACKGROUND Intertrochanteric(IT)fracture is one of the most common fractures seen in an orthopaedic practice.Proximal femoral nailing(PFN)is a common modality of fixing IT femur fracture.We retrospectively studied whe...
Metastatic bone disease of the distal extremities,also known as acrometastasis,is very rare.Thus,there is very limited information regarding the clinical manifestations and methods of surgical treatment.The current av...
A stable and precise articulation of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis maintains the tibiofibular relationship,and it is essential for normal motion of the ankle joint.The disruption of this joint is frequently acco...
BACKGROUND Few cases of avulsion fractures of the tibial tuberosity with simultaneous rupture of the patellar tendon have been reported in the literature.Therefore,its mechanism and incidence have not been determined ...
AIM To determine factors correlated with postoperative radial shortening in patients with distal radius fractures treated with volar locking distal radius plates.METHODS A total of 250 patients with a distal radius fr...
