PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to measure the morphological characteristics of inferior pole fracture of the patella (IPFP) and develop a practical classification system to determine the corresponding treatment protocols for different IPFPs with specific patterns. METHODS: A retrospective radiographic review was performed on a series of 71 patients with IPFP. The preoperative CT data were collected and measured using image processing software. The number of fragments, maximum fracture fragment anteroposterior length (MFFAL), maximum fracture fragment transverse length (MFFTL), fracture fragment coronal angle (FFCA), fracture fragment sagittal angle (FFSA), maximum fracture fragment height (MFFH) and maximum transverse sectional area (MTSA) were analysed...

Anterior hip dislocations as compared to posterior, rarely occurs. Nevertheless, it is important to be prepared to manage it. Physical examination and imaging are crucial in detecting this type of dislocation and ruling out any associated fractures. The most important thing is not delaying reduction which is done in a closed manner preferably in the operating room and under general anesthesia. Post-operative complications should be monitored. As for rehabilitation it is still debated and no consensus was reached...

OBJECTIVES: Patients with femur fracture after surgery are at risk of malnutrition, weight loss, disability, and mobility complications. In the present study the role of colostrum supplementation on physical disability, and some nutritional variables after surgery has been investigated. RESEARCH METHODS & PROCEDURES: Patients were randomly assigned to two groups. The intervention group received 45 g colostrum and the control group received 15 g whey protein daily for 21 days (each containing 12 g of protein)...

BACKGROUND: Motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) are a leading cause of traumatic death and injury. Police traffic stops (PTS) are a common approach to enforcing motor vehicle laws intended to prevent MVCs. However, it is unclear which types of PTS are most effective. This study examined the relationship of PTS subtypes among municipal police patrols on non-interstate roads and MVCs and MVC-related deaths. METHODS: PTS subtype data were characterized from six North Carolina cities: Charlotte, Durham, Fayetteville, Greensboro, Raleigh, and Winston-Salem...

REVIEW
Radovan Zdero, Pawel Brzozowski, Emil H Schemitsch
BACKGROUND: Proximal humerus locked plates (PHLPs) are widely used for fracture surgery. Yet, non-union, malunion, infection, avascular necrosis, screw cut-out (i.e., perforation), fixation failure, and re-operation occur. Most biomechanical investigators compare a specific PHLP configuration to other implants like non-locked plates, nails, wires, and arthroplasties. However, it is unknown whether the PHLP configuration is biomechanically optimal according to some well-known biomechanical criteria...

INTRODUCTION: Orthopaedic trauma has been linked to major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Post-injury rates of psychiatric diagnoses and their relationship to various injury characteristics are not well characterized. We aimed to determine the association between orthopaedic trauma and MDD, GAD, and PTSD diagnoses at 5-year follow-up. METHODS: A national insurance claims database was used to create upper extremity fracture (UEF) and lower extremity fracture (LEF) cohorts, with further stratification by isolated versus multiple fractures...

BACKGROUND: Our study examined if there were any limitations when using various measurement techniques in the literature to quantify osseous exposure. Additionally, we also examined if surface contour had any influence on obtained measurements, which no previous study has attempted. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three methods used to quantify osseous exposure area were identified, one in which involves manually applying mesh over exposure area. The other two use digital image capture software (ImageJ, Bethesda, MD)...

BACKGROUND: 3D-navigation for percutaneous sacroiliac (SI) screw fixation is becoming increasingly common and several studies report great advantages of this technology. However, there is still limited clinical evidence on the efficacy regarding radiation exposure for patient and personnel. METHODS: This is a retrospective, single-center cohort study. All patients who underwent percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation for an injury of the posterior pelvic ring from 2014 to 2021 were screened...

INTRODUCTION: Enhanced recovery (ER) aims to achieve earlier recovery, reduced hospital length of stay (LoS) whilst improving outcomes. Our ER protocol for acute lower-limb open fracture (ALLOFs) includes dangling at day 3 and mobilising fully weight-bearing from day 5. Our aims were to evaluate the outcomes of ALLOFs using our ER protocol for limb salvage, LoS following 'fix & flap', return to theatre, rate of successful flap salvage, flap failure and deep infection rates. METHODS: An observational study of a prospectively maintained lower limb flap database from September 2020 to January 2023 was undertaken...

INTRODUCTION: Compound fractures of the distal femur with large defects pose a significant challenge in management, with several options available, including external fixators, bone grafting, the Masquelet-induced membrane technique, and free vascularized fibular grafts. The Masquelet-induced membrane technique involves placing a cement spacer in the defect to create a biologically active membrane. In the second stage, the gold standard for filling the defect is an autologous cancellous bone graft of 1-2 mm in size...

BACKGROUND: Motorcycle crashes pose a persistent public health problem with disproportionate rates of severe injuries and mortality. This study aims to analyze injury patterns and outcomes with regard to helmet use. We hypothesized that helmet use is associated with fewer head injuries and does not increase the risk of cervical spine injuries. METHODS: The National Trauma Data Bank was queried for all motorcycle driver crashes between 2007-2017. Univariable analysis was used to compare demographics, clinical data, injury patterns using abbreviated injury scale, and outcomes between helmeted motorcycle drivers and non-helmeted motorcycle drivers who were injured in traffic crashes...

OBJECTIVE: Compare the biomechanical effectiveness of four different bone-implant constructs in preventing fracture displacement under axial loading. METHODS: Twenty artificial femora had a standardized coronally oriented fracture of the lateral femoral condyle, representing a Hoffa fracture classified as a Letenneur type I. Four different fixation constructs were applied to the synthetic bones for biomechanical testing. The constructs consisted of a posterolateral (PL) buttressing locking plate in conjunction with two cannulated lag screws inserted from posterior to anterior (PA) - Group 1; Two cannulated screws inserted from anterior to posterior (AP) without plating- Group 2; A posterolateral (PL) buttressing locking plate in isolation - Group 3; and a combination of two lag screws from anterior to posterior (AP) in addition to a horizontal one-third tubular locking plate - Group 4...

INTRODUCTION: Despite the recent increase in the use of cephalomedullary nails for trochanteric hip fractures, factors that may be associated with peri‑implant femoral fracture (PIFF) after cephalomedullary nailing for trochanteric fractures remain unknown. We investigated the factors associated with PIFF after cephalomedullary nailing of trochanteric hip fractures in older patients. METHODS: A nested case-control study was conducted using a database of patients aged ≥65 years who underwent surgery with cephalomedullary nails for trochanteric fractures caused by low-energy trauma during 2005-2021...
