One of the infectious causes wrist tenosynovitis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tendon sheath involvement rare. Herein, we report diagnosis and treatment a patient with neglected flexor tendon We man aged 50 years In patients involvement, symptoms are generally non-specific such as pain swelling; therefore, it can be diagnosed late due to lack systemic symptoms. Wrist X-ray imaging in may show soft tissue swelling osteoporotic changes around joint. T2-weighted sequences magnetic resonance...

This prospective case series aimed to evaluate the short- medium-term radiological and clinical outcomes of intramedullary screw (IMS) fixation in pediatric patients with extra-articular proximal phalanx fractures. Eleven (eight boys three girls) aged 5-15 years underwent IMS between January 2020 June 2022. Antegrade or retrograde techniques were used depending on fracture location. Postoperatively, immobilized finger splints for 3-5 days, followed by home exercises physiotherapy. Bone union...

Abstract Lower extremity amputation as a treatment of diabetic foot ulcer is probably major burden for the patient's family and friends, who typically act caregivers support patient in coping with physical disabilities emotional distress. In present prospective study, we investigated effects different lower levels on patients diabetes using Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI‐12) scale. Patients ulcers underwent unilateral (above‐below knee) minor (heel sparing) their were requested to volunteer...

The present study aimed to compare the isometric strength and endurance of shoulder abduction internal external rotation between operated shoulders nonoperated, contralateral patients who underwent reverse replacement due unilateral rotator cuff tear arthropathy.With a diagnosis arthropathy, 41 consecutive (mean age 70.8 years; range, 57 84; 36 females, 5 males) arthroplasty were reviewed based on functional radiological data. In all cases, arthropathy was asymptomatic, with normal function....

Patients divided into two groups as group A (posterior alone) or B (combined surgery), compared in terms invasiveness procedure, deformity, fusion, neurological status, postoperative complications.Group included 16 (mean age: 56 years, range: 29-75) with a mean follow-up period 29 months (range...

Obesity prevalence is increasing worldwide, and it causes restrictions in the respiratory system. Bioenergetics known as energy management a living cell. Respiratory muscle can be considered thermodynamic machine that converts chemical into mechanical work during each breathing cycle. This research aimed to reveal glucose consumption, exergy destruction, entropy generation healthy, obese, obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) patients using analysis of breathing. A human system was modeled...

Background: The effect of limb lengthening on neural structures was assessed with use intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) during primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). relationship between the critical limit and anthropometric measurements evaluated. Methods: Motor evoked potentials (MEPs) from deep peroneal nerve (tibialis anterior muscle), tibial (gastrocnemius femoral (quadriceps as well somatosensory (SEPs) posterior nerve, were recorded in 16 patients undergoing THA. Height, weight,...

Primary malignant tumors of the chest wall are uncommon. Chondrosarcoma is most common malignancy sternum. The current therapy for chondrosarcoma requires adequate surgical excision. A 52-year-old man presented with a lower-sternal mass. Thorax computed tomography (CT) revealed well-lineated, hypodense and round mass, which highly suggested sarcoma wall. tumor involved 1/3 distal part corpus sterni. Incisional biopsy mass was reported as chondrosarcoma. In order to obtain disease-free...
