Fractures, Bone
Abstract
It has been previously shown that in patients with osteoporosis, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) growth rate and osteogenic potential is decreased contributing to inferior fracture consolidation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), BMP-7, parathyr...

Abstract
The current landscape of growth factors in orthopaedic trauma is dominated by the BMPs, as they are the most extensively studied growth factors in clinical applications pertaining to orthopaedic trauma. Despite this, their application and indications for use in trauma remain controversial. This arti...

Abstract
Not all fractures heal well or rapidly in the adult skeleton, and basic scientists and clinicians continue to search for ways to make fractures heal more predictably. It is a fundamental tenet of orthopaedics that skeletal injury is followed by inflammation and that this inflammatory response is the...

Abstract
Trauma is often related to functional impairment, representing an important social, economic and health issue. This study intended to evaluate the functional independence of aged individuals with fractures, at admission, discharge and after one month from their regressing home. Furthermore, this stu...

Abstract
These results also demonstrate that ultrasound imaging techniques perform comparably better than x-ray imaging and optical imaging methods, in the assessment of a wide range of controlled defects both in mammalian and non-mammalian bones. In the future, ultrasound imaging techniques might provide a...

Abstract
The STTP group developed a significant increase in bone temperature, compared with the NTTP group. No significant difference was found between the mean maximal pullout strength of the STTP and the NTTP in both non-cyclic-loaded and cyclic-loaded groups. Microdamage to the bone-pin interface was lowe...

Abstract
Locked fixed-angle plating in the hand and wrist helps to optimize outcomes following surgical fixation of select acute fractures and complex reconstructions. Select indications include unstable distal ulna head/neck fractures, periarticular metacarpal and phalangeal fractures, comminuted/multifragm...

Abstract
Metacarpal fractures are common, especially in men, and account for about 10% of all fractures in patients. The fracture pattern and location, and the degree of angulation are important in determining the optimal treatment approach. Although metacarpal fractures can be treated nonsurgically, certain...

Abstract
Scaphoid fractures carry significant long-term morbidity and short-term socioeconomic difficulty in the young and active patient population in which they most commonly occur. While cast immobilization results in high rates of radiographic union in nondisplaced scaphoid fractures, internal fixation w...

Abstract
Hinged external fixation of the elbow provides the advantages of static fixation with the benefits of continued motion through the joint. Indications for the use of this method of fixation include traumatic instability, distraction interposition arthroplasty, instability after contracture release, a...

Abstract
The recent World Congress on Osteoporosis (IOF WCO-ECCEO10), held in Florence on 5-8 May 2010, not only drew a record number of researchers and clinicians, it also attracted a far greater number of scientific abstracts than ever before (850). Needless to say, the organizing societies, the Internatio...

Abstract
Strontium ranelate has been introduced recently for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in Europe and in many countries worldwide. This article reviews the published cost-effectiveness literature pertaining to strontium ranelate. Six studies were identified: two in the UK, two in Belgium an...

Abstract
162 of 248 bones were fractured. 130 fractures were identified using ultrasound, and 148 using X-ray. There were some advantages of X-ray over ultrasound in the detection of fracture type (80 correct results using X-ray, 66 correct results using ultrasound). Ultrasound, however, was superior to X-ra...

Abstract
We conducted this study to determine the pattern of extremity fracture due to trauma in children.
During one year in six general hospitals in Tehran, trauma patients who were hospitalized for more than 24 hours and sustained injuries within seven days before admission were included in the study. The...

Abstract
We reported a 20-year-old man who was admitted to the emergency room after a road traffic accident. He was a pedestrian who was initially hit by a bus and after he fell down on the road, he was run over by a car. On evaluation, he was found to have multiple facial and rib fractures, distal right hum...

Abstract
We retrospectively compared three different techniques for mallet fractures: Kirschner wire fixation with extension block pinning (EBP) of the distal interphalangeal joint, Kirschner wires used as joysticks (KWJ) and interfragmentary mini-screws for open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF).

Abstract
Abstract
Many considerations other than the predicted fracture risk are factored into the decision of whether to treat a benign skeletal lesion. However, this study indicated that quantitative computed tomography-based rigidity analysis is more specific (97% specificity) than criteria based on plain radiogra...

Abstract
One hundred and thirteen patients were included in the study (63 females, 50 males; mean age 10y 8mo, SD 4y 10mo, range 6mo-18y). The motor levels were thoracic in six, upper lumbar in 22, lower lumbar in 42, and sacral in 43 patients. Of the 113 patients, 58 (51.3%) had shunted hydrocephalus. Thirt...

Abstract
We present a case of an intact urethra and vagina avulsing from the symphysis pubis after pelvic fracture. CASE: An 18-year-old female pedestrian was struck by a motor vehicle. Operative reevaluation revealed an intact vagina and urethra; however, they were avulsed from the symphysis pubis. The avul...
