TREATMENT OF FRACTURE OF THE FEMUR [PDF]

open access: greenArchives of Surgery, 1921
SERIES OF FRACTURES OF THE FEMUR REPORTED IN RECENT AMERICAN LITERATURE Nis reported 575 cases of simple fracture of the femur occurring in the Charity Hospital at New Orleans during ten and one-half years. Of these fractures, ninety-six, or 16.7 per cent., were of the neck of the femur.

Morphometric parameters of the distal end of the femur and their influence on the knee joint [PDF]

open access: yesMedicinski Podmladak, 2022
Introduction: The femur is a long pair of bones and it consists of the proximal, distal end and body. The distal end carries the medial and lateral condyle (condylus medialis et lateralis), the intercondylar fossa and line (linea et fossa intercondylaris)

Imaging Pitfall in the Pediatric Knee: Irregular Epiphyseal Ossification at the Femoral Condyle

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2021
Teaching point: Age-related variability in endochondral ossification of the femoral condyles in children is a normal variant of skeletal maturation and should not be misdiagnosed as osteochondritis dissecans or any other epiphyseal abnormality.

Atypical Femur Fracture Risk versus Fragility Fracture Prevention with Bisphosphonates.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonates are effective in reducing hip and osteoporotic fractures. However, concerns about atypical femur fractures have contributed to substantially decreased bisphosphonate use, and the incidence of hip fractures may be increasing ...

Segmentation of the Proximal Femur from MR Images using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been proposed as a complimentary method to measure bone quality and assess fracture risk. However, manual segmentation of MR images of bone is time-consuming, limiting the use of MRI measurements in the clinical ...

Correlation of Bone Strength in an Animal Model (Rabbit) After Fracture and During the Period of Fixation with a Titanium Micro Plate

open access: yesActa Veterinaria, 2022
The period of bone healing after trauma goes through certain physiological processes. In situations where a bone fracture occurs, our intention is to surgically position in an appropriate morpho-anatomical position.
