Fractures, Spontaneous
Abstract
Older occupants in motor-vehicle crashes are more likely to experience injury than younger occupants. One possible reason for this is that increasing age is associated with increased prevalence of osteoporosis, which decreases bone strength. Crash-injury data were used with Bayes' Theorem to estimat...

Journal of Trauma (69)5 2010
Abstract
We hypothesized that unfavorable hemodynamic and oxygenation trends milder than catastrophic ones can be found intraoperatively in most patients with a pathological fracture and cancer-affected lungs.
Eleven patients with a femoral metastatic fracture or an impending fracture were studied in general...

Abstract
Treatment options in cases of severe craniofacial disorders with bone loss and tissue damage are usually limited to vascularized and nonvascularized tissue transfers, allografts, mechanical devices and, more recently, facial transplantation. Despite the therapies available, the demand for new approa...

Abstract
A 76-year-old woman with multiple bone metastases from lung adenocarcinoma was admitted due to a pathological femoral fracture. On the night after admission, her consciousness deteriorated rapidly and she developed progressive respiratory failure. Computed tomography of the chest revealed diffuse gr...

Abstract
Vertebroplasty (VP) and kyphoplasty (KP) are minimally invasive vertebral augmentation procedures for the treatment of fresh vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) associated with osteoporosis, trauma, malignant conditions, hemangiomas, and osteonecrosis. During these procedures, bone cement (e.g.,...

Abstract
We report a case of spontaneous intrauterine fracture of the right tibia and fibula in an otherwise healthy fetus at 20 weeks of gestation. The fracture healed in utero in an abnormal position. Postnatal development of the baby was normal with spontaneous correction of the angulation, and no underly...

Abstract
Recently, much of the attention given to bone-mineral disorder as the prognostic factor for mortality has focused on their links to chronic kidney disease (CKD-MBD; chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disease), especially in dialysis patients. Bone disease in dialysis patients showed heterogeneity c...

Abstract
The altered trabecular structure of the osteoporotic spine leads to an increased vulnerability of its biomechanical characteristics and reduction of load resistance. Therefore, any surgical procedure must account for these circumstances. In cement-augmented vertebrae, both the overall stability and...

Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by a reduction of bone mass and changes in bone micro-architecture. The resulting reduction in bone strength leads to the well recognized increase in the risk of fracture, particularly at the radius, hip, and spine. The treatment of osteoporotic fractures is challenged...

Abstract
Even in times of kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty, braces remain an efficient option in the treatment of osteoporotic hyperkyphosis due to imminent or manifest vertebral wedging with the obligatory pain and fracture risk of adjacent vertebraes. In the same fashion, acute osteoporotic fractures with co...

Abstract
Since the aim of the treatment of osteoporosis is to prevent fractures, the first-line drugs must be chosen according to their antifracture efficacies. In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, alendronate, risedronate, minodronate, and raloxifene are effective in preventing vertebral fractures, an...
