Evaluation of an occipito-cervico fusion with a new implant design: a biomechanical study
Background A novel implant for occipitocervical fusion consisting of a median plate with an additional hook inserting in the foramen magnum was tested. Aim of this study was to test the stability of a new implant for occipitocervical fusion against the ...

Background Intramedullary screw (IMS) fixation was wildly used in fifth metatarsal base fractures (FMBFs) and the results were satisfactory. However, in the comminuted osteoporosis or small displaced avulsion FMBFs, anatomical reduction and stable ...

Background Os acromiale can be potentially missed or misdiagnosed as acromion fracture, and this can affect treatment determination if it is complicated with an ipsilateral shoulder injury.

Background Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation is a relatively common shoulder injury. For the treatment of cases of severe ACJ dislocation (Rockwood type III–V), hook plate fixation is an easy-to-master and minimally-invasive approach to surgical ...

Numerical investigation on droplet separation performance of corrugated plate gas-liquid separators
The separation performance of droplets in hookless, single-hook, and double-hook corrugated plates is simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD)—combining the realizable k-ε model (to describe fluid turbulence) and the Lagrange approach (to track

Comparative study of surgical treatment of acromioclavicular luxation [PDF]
Background/Aim. Acromioclavicular (AC) luxations most often affect athletes. The published results regarding the treatment of AC joint luxations vary. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, so there is still no consensus on the best method ...

Objective: To evaluate if acromial locking in hook plate is necessary for surgical treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation by compare Wolter plate and AO hook plate. Methods: Seventy one patients who have Rockwood type III to V acromioclavicular joint dislocation treated with AO hook plate and Wolter plate were involved. Among them, 39 patients were

Fractures of the distal third of the clavicle treated by hook plating [PDF]
We retrospectively assessed the union and shoulder function following hook plate fixation in 18 patients with Neer type 2 fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle. The average age was 40 (range 22-62) years, and the mean follow-up was 25 (range 6-48) months. Fifteen patients had acute fractures and the rest were non-unions.

Hooked embracing plate for Rolando fracture fixation: a preliminary result
Abstract Background Rolando fracture is a comminuted, intra-articular fracture over the metacarpal bone base of the thumb which often leads to joint instability and requirement of surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the radiological and functional outcomes of Rolando fracture following surgical fixation with a ...
