Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are known collectively as venous thromboembolism (VTE). Venous thromboembolic events common potentially life-threatening complications following trauma with an incidence of 5 to 63%. DVT prophylaxis is essential in the management patients. Currently, optimal VTE strategy for patients unknown. Traditionally, pelvic lower extremity fractures, head injury, prolonged immobilization have been considered risk factors VTE; however it unclear...

Extensor tendon irritation and attritional ruptures are well-recognized complications, secondary to dorsal screw penetration following volar plating of the distal radius. Lateral oblique views wrist have limited ability detect such penetration, particularly at ulnar side Lister's tubercle. In this report, we conducted an intraoperative fluoroscopic study determine in various positions wrist/forearm compared standard radiographic (lateral, supination, pronation views) with tangential view wrist.

Background: Establishing the minimal clinically important difference for patient-reported outcomes questionnaires is essential in research to evaluate patient’s perspective of treatment effectiveness. The authors aim determine after carpal tunnel release diabetic and nondiabetic patients using Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire. Methods: prospectively evaluated 114 (87 27 patients) undergoing release. In addition standard history physical examination, obtained preoperative electrodiagnostic...

Schwannomas are also known as neurolemmas that usually originated from Schwann cells located in the peripheric nerve sheaths. They most common tumours of hand (0.8-2%). present solitary swelling along course however multiple lesions may be cases NF type 1, familial neurofibromatosis, and sporadic schwannomatosis. generally represented an asymptomatic mass; pain, numbness fatigue take place with increasing size tumour. EMG (electromyelography), MRI (magnetic resonance imagination), USG...

Medical photography is used clinically for patient evaluation, treatment decisions, and scientific documentation. Although standards medical exist in many branches of medicine, we have not encountered such criteria publications the area orthopedics.This study aims to (1) assess quality images an orthopedic publication (2) propose this area.Clinical photographs were reviewed from all issues a journal published between years 2008 2012. A clinical was developed based on specialties dermatology...

Purpose . The appearance of trigger finger after decompression the carpal tunnel without a preexisting symptom has been reported in few articles. Although, cause is not clear yet, loss pulley action transverse ligament accused mostly. In this study, we planned biomechanical approach to fresh cadavers. Methods study was performed on 10 amputees arm. angles were measured with (1) and distal forearm fascia intact, (2) only incised, (3) incised point 3 cm proximal from most part addition...

We investigated patients undergoing arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using otogeneous hamstring tendons with a cross-pin technique to compare post-operative home-based rehabilitation programme clinic-based programme. ACL was performed on 104 (103 male) by the same surgeon. The mean age of 31.5 years (range 18–43 years) and time interval between injury operation 34.3 months. Patients were randomly allocated either ( n = 52) or 52). Mean follow-up 31.1 months 12–66...

Nonadherence to postoperative therapy protocols can adversely affect the outcome after flexor tendon surgery. In this study, we hypothesize that patients with partial or no insurance coverage for their aftercare are less likely attend sessions and have a higher incidence of poorer than those who full coverage.We analyzed 159 injuries at level 1 trauma center. Demographic variables along clinical data were collected cross-tabulated. Associations among descriptive assessed using Fisher's Exact...

Coracoid fractures are rarely seen fractures. In the shoulder girdle, coracoid process generally accompany dislocation of acromioclavicular joint or glenohumeral joint, scapula corpus, clavicula, humerus fracture, rotator cuff tear. can be missed and treatment for is still controversial. this paper, a 34-year-old male manual labourer presented to emergency department with complaints pain restricted movement in left following traffic accident. On direct radiographs computerised tomography...

To evaluate the efficiency of percutaneous 18-G needle technique in releasing fibro-osseous sheath over first dorsal extensor compartment hand.Using anatomic landmarks, release was performed with an on 48 wrists 24 cadavers. The specimens were then dissected and examined for completeness any tendon or neurovascular injuries. tunnel length, number abductor pollicis longus brevis tendons, presence intertendinous septum, effects these parameters evaluated.Percutaneous all wrists, evaluation...

Osteochondroma is the most common benign tumor of skeleton. However, calcaneal osteochondroma very rare. Osteochondromas grow during childhood through adolescence, but usually growing ends when epiphyseal plates close. In an adult, growth suggests diagnosis malignant transformation to a chondrosarcoma. enlargement reported as after skeletal maturity present in literature.We report clinical and radiologic findings with extremely rare placement painfull, rapid reccurence following surgical...
