A 50‐year perspective on the use and potential of artiodactyl calcanei in bone adaptation studies
ABSTRACT Sheep and deer calcanei are important models for studying cortical (compact) and trabecular (cancellous) bone adaptation because they are amenable to direct strain measurement (due to lack of surrounding muscles), experience relatively simple/unidirectional bending, exhibit osteon remodelling, and have the most pronounced regional variations ...

Treatment of acute proximal humeral fractures in children with modular exter nal fixator
Objective: To evaluate the follow-up of the fractures treated by external fixator. Methods: A total of 31 children aged 6–15 years with proximal humeral fractures Grade IV according to Neer–Horowitz classification were treated. The medium follow-up was

Epidemiology of Maxillofacial Injuries in the Swords of Iron War: Insights From a National Registry
ABSTRACT Background Maxillofacial injuries (MFI) in warfare present significant challenges due to the concentration of vital structures in the facial region and the high‐energy mechanisms of injury. This study analyzes the epidemiology, severity, and outcomes of MFI during the Swords of Iron conflict using data from the Israeli National Trauma Registry.

Treatment of reducible unstable fractures of the distal radius: randomized clinical study comparing the locked volar plate and external fixator methods: study protocol [PDF]
Background: Various treatments are available for reducible unstable fractures of the distal radius, such as closed reduction combined with fixation by external fixator (EF), and rigid internal fixation using a locked volar plate (VP).

Arthrodiastasis for stiff hips in young patients [PDF]
Joint distraction (arthrodiastasis) with a unilateral fixator was used to treat 9 patients with stiffness of the hip which had followed Perthes' disease (3), epiphysiolysis (2), congenital dysplasia (2), tuberculosis (1) and idiopathic chondrolysis (1 ...

Results of application of external fixation with different types of fixators [PDF]
Introduction. Extra-focal or external fixation is the method of fracture fixation through the healthy part of the bone using pins or wires. Objective. The aim was to determine which external splints (Ortofix, Mitković, Charnley and Ilizarov) had the ...

The use of twin-ring Ilizarov external fixator constructs: application and biomechanical proof-of principle with possible clinical indications [PDF]
Background In peri- or intra-articular fractures of the tibia or femur, the presence of short metaphyseal bone fragments may make the application of an Ilizarov external fixator (IEF) challenging. In such cases, it may be necessary to bridge the adjacent
