Background: Fractures of the proximal third of the tibia commonly result from high-velocity trauma, particularly road traffic accidents, and are often associated with significant soft-tissue injury. Their management rema...

Background: Humeral shaft fractures account for approximately 3 % of all fractures and exhibit a bimodal age distribution. Dynamic compression plating (DCP) and locked compression plating (LCP) are two principal methods...

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are among the commonest fractures encountered by orthopaedic surgeons. Primary goal in the treatment of DRFs is to restore articular congruity. Evidence is inconsistent about th...

Abstract Background Acetabular fractures, predominantly caused by high-energy trauma, pose a substantial healthcare burden in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) such as Nepal. This study aimed to characterize the e...

Aims: This audit aimed to assess compliance with British Orthopaedic Association Standards for Trauma (BOAST) for paediatric forearm and wrist fractures across UK NHS hospitals and identify targets for improvement locall...

PurposeTo define the anatomical boundaries of potential safe corridors for the placement of Schanz screws during external fixation of unstable pelvic fractures in normally developed adolescents aged 11–14 years.Patient...

Aims: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) allows immediate weightbearing and avoids challenges associated with secondary arthroplasty following conservative management or failed fixation of tibial plateau fractures (TPFs). Met...

Abstract Background Traumatic skull fractures (TSF) are relatively frequent in dogs and cats, but little information is available regarding their clinical and imaging features. Hypothesis/Objectives To describe the neuro...

Abstract Objective To investigate the application effect of 3D printing combined with MR technology in teaching the percutaneous screw fixation of scaphoid fractures under C-arm fluoroscopy, providing new ideas to enhanc...

Background: The calcaneus is the most fractured tarsal bone and plays an important role as part of the subtalar joint to transfer weight from the lower limb to the ground. Injury to this structure and alteration of weigh...

Background: Proximal humerus fractures (PHF) are increasingly common among elderly patients and present significant treatment challenges, particularly in low-resource settings. While locking plate fixation is widely used...

Hip fractures in the elderly represent a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. A considerable proportion of these patients are on antiplatelet medications, such as aspirin (Ecospirin) and clopidogrel (Clopitab), ...

ABSTRACT This study compared short- and long-term clinical, radiographic, and owner-reported outcomes of intramedullary cross-pinning (CRP) and locked anatomical condylar/J-shaped plates (SCP) in adult cats with distal d...

Abstract Background Intertrochanteric femoral fractures are common in the elderly population and are associated with substantial mortality. While fracture reduction quality is known to influence mechanical outcomes, its ...

Introduction Fractures, the most common type of trauma, can cause considerable distress to patients. Pain can not only affect the comfort of fracture patients but also delay their participation in rehabilitation training...

ABSTRACT Background An anatomical supra‐pectineal quadrilateral surface buttress plate (Union Plate) has been designed and shown promising mechanical strength in vivo. Robot‐aided technique has shown promising resul...

ABSTRACT Objective The proximal femoral laterally bionic intramedullary nail (PFLBN) is a novel cephalomedullary fixation system incorporating an additional lateral wall screw. This study aimed to compare the stress dist...

ABSTRACT In recent years, there has been a proliferation of literature describing new technologies increasingly integrated into the surgical management of pelvic fractures. However, the available data are heterogeneous, ...

Large fractures tend to dominate the hydraulic and mechanical properties of fracture networks and, consequently, of fractured rock masses. Hence, their characterization is of primary interest in a variety of applications...

Background: Patient positioning for proximal femoral nailing (PFN) in unstable intertrochanteric fractures remains controversial and may influence operative efficiency, radiation exposure, and reduction quality. This stu...

Abstract Background Fragility fractures, which frequently occur following falls, represent a growing concern in aging populations, severely affecting health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and increasing mortality. Altho...

Abstract Background Tibial spine avulsion fractures (TSFs) are the pediatric equivalent of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The optimal management of type II fractures remains debated, and both conservative and...

ABSTRACT Background Thoracolumbar burst fractures with neurological deficits require decompression and stabilization. The spinous process‐splitting approach (SPSA) achieves neural decompression while preserving the pos...

Background. Proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) represent approximately 5% of all fractures, occurring predominantly in elderly patients with osteoporosis. Functional limitations and high complication rates are common resu...
