Bicondylar Hoffa Fracture Successfully Treated with Headless Compression Screws [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2014
Bicondylar coronal plane fracture, eponymically named Hoffa fractures, is an extremely rare injury. We present a case of isolated unilateral bicondylar Hoffa fracture that was successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation using headless ...

Compression fractures detection on CT [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2017
The presence of a vertebral compression fracture is highly indicative of osteoporosis and represents the single most robust predictor for development of a second osteoporotic fracture in the spine or elsewhere. Less than one third of vertebral compression fractures are diagnosed clinically. We present an automated method for detecting spine compression

Percutaneous vertebroplasty is not a risk factor for new osteoporotic compression fractures: results from VERTOS II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background and purpose: Pv is increasingly used as treatment for osteoporotic vcfs. However, controversy exists as to whether pv increases the risk for new vcfs during follow-up.

Update on Symptomatic Treatment of Acute Vertebral Compression Fracture

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Rheumatology and Immunology, 2019
The vertebral column is the most common site of osteoporotic fracture in older individuals and in those using long-term glucocorticoids. Vertebral compression fracture leads to significant morbidities such as acute and chronic pain, spinal deformities ...

Microstructure and Properties Evaluation of Ductile Cast Iron Subjected to Hot Plastic Deformation and Ambient Temperature Compression [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2023
The as-cast microstructure of ductile cast iron (DI) was investigated using light microscopy (LM) and SEM techniques. Further the influence of hot plastic extrusion at 1000°C with plastic strain in the range of 20-60-80% on the transformation of the as ...

Compression Fracture in Postpartum Osteoporosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bone Metabolism, 2013
Osteoporosis is mainly a problem in postmenopausal women. However, we had a case of postpartum compression fracture associated with osteoporosis. A 42-year-old multiparous woman had undergone tertiary cesarean section without complications 1 month before. She was breast-feeding her baby and had no other bone-related complication history.

Effect of strain rate on specific fracture energy and micro-fracture surface properties of rock specimen under dynamic uniaxial compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Effects of strain rate on specific fracture energy and micro-fracture surface properties of rock specimen were investigated at strain rates of ∼ 60–115.0 s-1. To achieve this, rock breakage was conducted under dynamic uniaxial compression using the split

Association of vertebral compression fractures with physical performance measures among community-dwelling Japanese women aged 40 years and older

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2017
Background Numerous reported studies have shown that vertebral compression fractures are associated with impaired function or disability; however, few examined their association with objective measures of physical performance or functioning.
