Role of Intramedullary Fibular Fixation: Strategies for Addressing Complex Pilon Fractures [PDF]
Aim and background: Pilon fractures are usually the result of a high-energy mechanism and are widely considered more of a soft tissue injury secondary to the high rates of soft tissue complications that arise from them.

Navicular and fifth metatarsal base stress fractures: An illustrated anatomical review
Abstract The navicular bone and the proximal fifth metatarsal (M5) play a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity and biomechanical stability of the foot's medial and lateral columns, respectively. Both bones' unique anatomical configuration, intricate mechanical environment and limited vascular supply make specific locations particularly ...

Peri-Implant Fractures Distal to an Antegrade Femoral Nail: A Case Series [PDF]
Peri-implant fractures distal to an antegrade femoral nail are uncommon injuries, with no current consensus on the best treatment modality. We are presenting three cases of periimplant fractures distal to an antegrade femoral nail.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The sEH inhibitor TPPU upregulates endothelial HIF‐1α, activating the NOTCH signalling pathway between endothelial cells and mesenchymal stem cells. This promotes the differentiation and formation of FABP5+ septoclasts, enhances their participation in endochondral ossification, and ultimately improves longitudinal bone growth and fracture healing ...

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