Finite element analysis of four different fixation methods for the treatment of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures are severe injuries caused by high-energy trauma. In recent years, the incidence and discussion of such fractures have increased significantly.

Scaling relationships between Haversian canal‐to‐secondary osteon and midshaft femur cortical‐to‐total area in a human autopsy sample

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We report that femoral cortical thickness was strongly and negatively associated with secondary osteon porosity in an Australian autopsy sample, indicating that thicker cortices contained less porous secondary osteons. This allometric relationship held for the whole sample, males and sedentary well‐nourished individuals, but not for females or other ...

Updating the forelimb anatomy of the domestic cat (Felis catus, Felidae) based on evolutionary inferences of its muscles and nerves I: Shoulder and brachium

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we provide a detailed description of the shoulder and brachium muscles and the brachial plexus of the domestic cat (Felis catus). We identified muscular variants (articularis humeri, coracobrachialis longus, biceps brachii caput breve), clarified the independence of the anconeus medialis muscle from the triceps brachii muscle, and ...

Approach to Management of Femoral Neck Fractures

, 2023
Femoral neck fractures are among the most common injuries in adults over 65 years. These fractures can be caused by high-impact trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents, or low-impact trauma, such as falls.

Effect of screw thread type on implant-related complications following femoral neck fracture fixation in non-geriatric adults: a multicenter, retrospective cohort study

Frontiers in Surgery
IntroductionThis study compared implant-related complications after femoral neck fracture fixation using partially vs. fully threaded cannulated screws in non-geriatric patients.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 1,035 patients with femoral ...

How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we study the bone structure in the forelimb long bones of the five extant species of rhinoceroses. By combining traditional description of virtual sections made on the bones (A) with in‐depth cartographies of the variation of bone compactness and anisotropy (B), we show how bone tissue can adapt to extreme forces and constraints in the second ...

Femoral nerve block in extracapsular femoral neck fractures

, 1995
We randomised 50 patients with extracapsular fractures of the femoral neck to receive either a bupivacaine femoral nerve block or systemic analgesia alone. A femoral nerve block was found to be an easy and effective procedure which significantly reduced

Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

Femoral neck fractures in young patients

, 2016
Femoral neck fractures in young adults are uncommon. They usually occur as a result of high-energy trauma and patients often have associated injuries. Osteonecrosis of the femoral head and nonunion are the two most common and challenging complications ...

Subchondral screw fixation for femoral neck fractures

, 1989
We describe a method of internal fixation for femoral neck fractures which has been newly developed to reduce the frequency of early complications. Two cannulated screws are inserted in the axis of the femoral neck to reach into the subchondral bone of ...
