Jul 2nd, 2021 - A finite element analysis was performed to evaluate the stresses around nails and cortical bones in subtrochanteric (ST) fracture models fixed using short cephalomedullary nails (CMNs). A total 96 finite element models (FEMs) were simulated on a t...

May 30th, 2021 - Difficulty in obtaining union, recurrent fractures, and residual deformities remain the problems challenging the management of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT). We applied the "Eiffel Tower" double titanium elastic nails (TENs) in the ...

May 28th, 2021 - There is no well-established gold standard for treating trochanteric femur fractures in the elderly. The two common treatment options are cephalomedullary nails (CMN) and sliding hip screws (SHS). In this study, treatment using CMN and SHS were co...

May 18th, 2021 - Spica casting (Spica) remains the widely accepted treatment of closed femoral shaft fractures in young children aged 6 months to 5 years. In some centers, there has been a recent trend towards surgical fixation of these fractures with flexible int...

May 18th, 2021 - Intertrochanteric (IT) fractures are estimated to burden the healthcare system six billion dollars annually. Previous studies have documented a trend of early-career orthopaedic surgeons favoring intramedullary nails (IMNs) for these fractures, de...

Jun 17th, 2016 - After surgery with standard intramedullary nailing technique in tibia fractures, 40-80% of the patients still complain of anterior knee pain postoperative. The expected advantages of the semi-extended nailing technique is less anterior knee pain a...

Nov 27th, 2012 - This project investigates microcirculation in skin and muscle after different surgical treatment of pertrochanteric fractures of the femur for detecting the less damaging method. Three different systems are compared: the PCCT and the osteosynthesi...

Apr 1st, 2003 - Trachyonychia (“rough nails”) is best considered a reaction or morphologic pattern with a variety of clinical presentations and etiologies. It may involve only 1 or as many as 20 nails (20-nail dystrophy).
