Cancellous bone and theropod dinosaur locomotion. Part I—an examination of cancellous bone architecture in the hindlimb bones of theropods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper is the first of a three-part series that investigates the architecture of cancellous (‘spongy’) bone in the main hindlimb bones of theropod dinosaurs, and uses cancellous bone architectural patterns to infer locomotor biomechanics in extinct ...

Comparison of reconstruction nails versus dual implants in the treatment of ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures in adults: a meta-analysis and systematic review

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Objective There is no consensus on the optimal treatment for ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures. This meta-analysis aims to assess the effectiveness of reconstruction nails and dual implants in treating ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft ...

Ontogenetic scaling patterns and functional anatomy of the pelvic limb musculature in emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) are exclusively terrestrial, bipedal and cursorial ratites with some similar biomechanical characteristics to humans. Their growth rates are impressive, as their body mass increases eighty-fold from hatching to adulthood ...

Augmentative antirotational plating provided a significantly higher union rate than exchanging reamed nailing in treatment for femoral shaft aseptic atrophic nonunion - retrospective cohort study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Atrophic nonunion of femoral shaft fracture after intramedullary (IM) nailing is uncommon. The treatment for femoral shaft aseptic atrophic non-union remained controversial.

Intramedullary Nailing of Periarticular Fractures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plate fixation has historically been the preferred surgical treatment method for periarticular fractures of the lower extremity. This trend has stemmed from difficulties with fracture reduction and concerns of inadequate fixation with intramedullary ...

Use of Reconstruction Nails to Manage Ipsilateral Displaced Femoral Neck-Shaft Fractures: Assessment of a New Approach

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2002
Purpose. Owing to unpredictable femoral neck reduction, reconstruction nails are not suitable for fixation of group 3 ipsilateral femoral neck-shaft fractures. We developed a new one-step fixation technique to overcome this problem.

Nonoperative management of adult femoral shaft fracture using the principle of controlled collapse in mission hospital in Central India

open access: yesCHRISMED Journal of Health and Research, 2015
Operative as well as non operative treatment methods have been described for management of femoral shaft fracture in adults. Non operative management of adult femoral shaft fracture is uncommon as operative management has better functional outcome.

Role of open cerclage wiring in patients with comminuted fractures of the femoral shaft treated with intramedullary nails

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2021
Introduction The role of open cerclage wiring in comminuted femoral shaft fracture treatment with intramedullary nails remains unclear. Here, we analyzed the effect of open cerclage wiring and the risk factors for nonunion after interlocking nailing in ...
