Surgical Treatment of Ipsilateral Multi-Level Femoral Fracture Treated Using Antegrade Intramedullary Nail [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Trauma and Injury, 2018
Ipsilateral fractures of proximal femur with shaft and condylar region are very rare. Current concept of management is based on fixation of each fracture as independent entity using separate fixation modalities for proximal and distal parts of femur ...

Current Landscape of Short‐T2 Imaging Techniques in the Musculoskeletal System: The Past, Present and Future

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

Effects of Plate‐Bone Contact on Bridge Plate Fracture Fixation Biomechanics: Computational, Experimental, and Analytical Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bridge plating is commonly used for internal fixation of comminuted fractures. The inner working length between screws has been established as a key parameter controlling postoperative biomechanical stability. However, plate‐bone contact may affect these biomechanics in complex ways, and the offset between the plate and bone is variable across

Comparison of Atypical and Osteoporotic Femoral Shaft Fractures in the Elderly: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesAdvances in Orthopedics, 2018
Background. In atypical femoral fractures, owing to the high rates of complications and delayed healing that accompany the plate fixation, the most favorable treatment is intramedullary nailing.

Anemia, Abnormal Body Mass Index, and Sarcopenia Increase Complication Risk in Patients Undergoing Surgical Treatment for Metastatic Bone Disease

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Knee laxity, joint hypermobility, femoral anteversion, hamstring extensibility and navicular drop as risk factors for non‐contact ACL injury in female athletes: A 4.5‐year prospective cohort study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether six selected anatomical variables were associated with non‐contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female team sport athletes. Methods Two hundred eighty‐seven female athletes (age 13–38 at baseline) from basketball, floorball, ice hockey and volleyball completed a baseline physical examination ...
