Fracture patterns in midshaft clavicle fractures [PDF]
Current classifications of midshaft clavicle fractures are based on radiography. The aim of the study was to evaluate the fracture pattern of clavicle fractures using 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT). A retrospective analysis was performed on CT scans of 65 acute clavicle fractures.

Comorbidities only account for a small proportion of excess mortality after fracture: A record linkage study of individual fracture types [PDF]
Background: Non-hip non-vertebral fractures (NHNV) constitute the majority of osteoporotic fractures but few studies have examined the association between these fractures, co-morbidity and mortality.

Importance of initial fracture crack width in minimally dislocated fractures of humeral lateral condyle in children for evaluation of fracture stability and treatment choice [PDF]
Introduction. The fracture of the external condyle is the most common fracture of the distal end of the humerus. This is an intraarticular fracture, which, if not properly treated, can cause serious complications, difficult to treat. Objective. To define

Hypothesis: We hypothesized that the modified Fragility Index (mFI) would predict complications in patients older than 50 years who underwent operative intervention for a proximal humerus fracture.

Delayed surgical debridement in pediatric open fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
Purpose: Open fractures are considered orthopedic emergencies that are traditionally treated with surgical debridement within 6 h of injury to prevent infection.

Impact of mechanical stratigraphy on fracture growth and propagation
Mechanical stratigraphy plays an important role in controlling the nucleation, propagation, and development of fractures. The fracture development pattern and development mode were defined in this study via a detailed description.

Fractal model and Lattice Boltzmann Method for Characterization of Non-Darcy Flow in Rough Fractures. [PDF]
The irregular morphology of single rock fracture significantly influences subsurface fluid flow and gives rise to a complex and unsteady flow state that typically cannot be appropriately described using simple laws.

Surgical technique: Tscherne-Johnson extensile approach for tibial plateau fractures. [PDF]
BackgroundThe standard approach to lateral tibial plateau fractures involves elevation of the iliotibial band (IT) and anterior tibialis origin in continuity from Gerdy's tubercle and metaphyseal flare.

NEW IN THE PATELLA FRACTURES TREATMENT
In the literature there is a gap of publications about patella fractures management which is due to the absence of serious attention to the injuries of this largest sesamoid bone.
