A simple technique to position patients with bilateral above-knee amputations for operative fixation of intertrochanteric fractures of the femur: a case report [PDF]
Introduction Intertrochanteric fractures of the femur are common fractures in the elderly, and management includes operative fixation after patient positioning on the fracture table. Patients with bilateral above-knee amputations are challenging in terms

By highlighting the significance of calcar femorale injury and other risk factors, our findings can guide clinical doctors to closely monitor patients or design better internal fixation devices and surgical methods (such as DHS with anti‐rotational screw or medial buttress plating) to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.

A new technique for insertion of barrel plate over dy-namic hip/compression lag screw: a case report
【Abstract】Dynamic hip/compression screw (DHS/ DCS) is one of the most commonly performed surgeries in orthopaedic practice. Sliding barrel plate over the DHS/DCS lag screw is one of the very crucial and at times uncomfor-table and time consuming steps

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Metastatic bone disease (MBD) is a common complication of primary cancers and is typically managed surgically. Overall health status and nutritional optimization are essential in surgical outcomes. The objective of this study was to report the intersectionality of previously studied laboratory, imaging, and clinical ...

Outcomes of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Detected Occult Neck of Femur Fractures:Do They Represent a Less Severe Injury with Improved Outcomes? [PDF]
Purpose: Occult hip fractures in the elderly can be missed on standard radiographs and are a known cause of morbidity. These are generally diagnosed on either magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography scan, depending upon local hospital ...

A study of results of fixation of pertrochanteric femur fractures with dynamic hip screw (DHS) & comparision with past studies [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Trochanteric fracture is a leading cause of hospital admissions in elderly people. The number of such admissions is a rise because of increasing life span & sedentary habits. Conservative methods of treatment result in malunion with shortening and limitation of hip movement as well as complications of prolonged immobilization
