Influence of Age on Fracture Healing in Young and Middle‐Aged Mice in a Proximal Femur Fracture Model

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoporotic hip fractures are a considerable cause of pain and disability particularly among the elderly. Osteoporosis causes loss of bone stability, which in turn leads to an increased risk of fractures especially in metaphyseal bone. Moreover, the body′s capacity for healing is diminished, resulting in prolonged recovery times following ...

Treatment of pressure gun fractures and release in the wild of a caracara (Caracara plancus)

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract This report aims to describe the treatment progression of a free‐living southern crested caracara (Caracara plancus plancus) with gunshot‐related fractures. Radiographic examination revealed a comminuted fracture in the mid‐diaphysis of the humerus with displaced fragments, a comminuted fracture of the proximal third of the radius shaft, and ...

A Comparison of Locking Plates and Intramedullary Pinning for Fixation of Metacarpal Shaft Fractures

HAND, 2018
Background: Metacarpal shaft fractures that necessitate surgery are frequently fixated with either intramedullary pins or plates and screws. This study compared outcome measurements of these two techniques.

Combined intramedullary pin and type 1a external skeletal fixator as a treatment for a comminuted Y‐T humeral fracture in a cat

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 2‐year‐old domestic cat presented following vehicular trauma. Orthopaedic evaluation revealed non‐weight‐bearing lameness of the right thoracic limb, soft tissue swelling, and crepitus upon palpation of the humerus and elbow. A severely comminuted closed Y‐T fracture of the right distal humerus was diagnosed on radiographs.

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.
This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...

The Femoral Neck‐Shaft Offset: A Key Element in the Reconstruction of Intertrochanteric Fracture

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Anteromedial cortex reduction and accurate placement of the cephalomedullary nail is the key point to confront implant failure of intertrochanteric fractures. This study aimed to investigate the effect of FNSO on anteromedial cortex reduction and accurate placement of the cephalomedullary nail for intertrochanteric fractures.
