The initial biomechanical properties of semitendinosus and patellar tendon autografts their fixation strengths were investigated. Twenty fresh cadaveric knees from donors under 42 years age used in the study. After removing all soft tissues other than anterior cruciate ligament, we determined ultimate tensile strength (2195 ± 427 N) stiffness (306 80 N/mm) ligament nine knees. In six knees, ligaments reconstructed using an autologous graft with proximal distal interference fit screws; this...
Proximal humeral fractures are common in older patients. The majority minimally displaced and associated with good outcomes after nonoperative treatment. Poorer displaced, multipart fractures. There is no clear benefit from surgical fracture fixation compared to Replacement of the fractured head a hemiarthroplasty another treatment option, but has not been shown be clearly superior or internal fixation. Recently, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty used treat these fractures, particularly...
A 44-year-old woman presented with sudden onset of pain in the proximal left forearm after lifting a heavy object. She gave history bone graft being taken from ulna for cosmetic reconstruction her nose 1 year previously. The plain film showed donor site defect but no fracture. Bone scintigraphy confirmed hyperemia extending across to coronoid process and intense delayed uptake same distribution, thought be consistent Magnetic resonance imaging Fracture through is rare, only one report this...
Introduction Five patients presented to the emergency department of a tertiary referral teaching hospital with atraumatic fractures their humerus sustained during recreational dodgeball tournament. Case Presentation The were young healthy individuals that described fracture occurring act throwing. Conclusions causes leading throw are discussed and management strategies utilized.
TPS270 Background: Dysphagia is a common side effect following chemoradiation therapy (CRT) in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). other treatment-related conditions such as aspiration, xerostomia, fibrosis can significantly impact quality of life (QOL) HNC patients. Acupuncture could potentially dysphagia by improving salivary production, restoring swallowing reflex, inhibiting the process. Preliminary clinical studies suggest that acupuncture may improve radiation–induced xerostomia...
