Assessment of tibial fracture healing with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry: influence of metallic implants at the fracture site [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Evaluation of the progress of fracture healing traditionally combines manual fracture manipulation with a visual radiographic assessment. This approach can lead to satisfactory healing, but trouble can ensue when the type of fixation compromises the ...

Triple-Segmental Shaft Femur Fracture: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Segmental femur fractures, an uncommon injury pattern, are usually caused by high-energy trauma such as road traffic accidents. Despite their complexity, early intervention is essential for maximising recovery and reducing complications ...

Evaluation for radiographic changes in the coxofemoral joint and proximal femur following intramedullary stabilisation of diaphyseal femoral fractures using angle‐stable interlocking nails in skeletally immature patients

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 67, Issue 9, Page 774-784, September 2026.
Objectives To evaluate a juvenile dog population that sustained diaphyseal femoral fractures surgically stabilised with an angle‐stable interlocking nail and evaluate for evidence of proximal femoral malformation both periooperatively and at skeletal maturity.

Elastic Intramedullary Nailing of a Medial Clavicle Fracture in a Pediatric Patient

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2017
Introduction. Injuries to the medial clavicle in pediatric patients typically involve the physis and/or sternoclavicular joint. Clavicle fractures are one of the most common injuries in children, but ones at its medial end are rare.

Breaking the Debilitating Cycle: Pathophysiology, Assessment, and Multimodal Intervention of Secondary Debilitation After Hip Fracture in Older Adults—A Narrative Review

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 1785-1803, September 2026.
This article provides a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying “secondary debilitation after hip fracture,” discusses the clinical application of risk assessment tools, and presents a phased, stepwise intervention strategy aimed at interrupting the “vicious cycle.” ABSTRACT Hip fractures pose a serious threat to the ...

Intramedullary fixation by resorbable rods in a comminuted phalangeal fracture model: A biomechanical study

open access: yes, 1999
The mechanical rigidity of three different methods of resorbable intramedullary fixation (bone peg, and polyglycolide rods with and without interlocking) was assessed in a comminuted phalangeal fracture model and the results compared with two commonly ...

Factors Associated With Accelerated Fracture Healing in Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury and Extremity Comminuted Fractures: A Retrospective Case–Control Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 1880-1891, September 2026.
In patients with traumatic brain injury and comminuted fractures, accelerated healing is independently predicted by younger age and greater TBI severity (lower GCS score). These factors may inform clinical decision‐making and provide insight into neurohumoral regulation of bone regeneration.
