Osteopetrosis is a rare hereditary disease which characterized by increased bone density. Bone resorption insufficient or fails due to the osteoclast defect in osteopetrosis. Half of patients are asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally based on presence fracture. Adult onset osteopetrosis usually presents with hip proximal femoral fractures. Internal fixation can be performed; however, technical challenges may experienced As other fractures, nonunion varus malunion these fractures occur....

To evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of core decompression combined with bone marrow aspirate injection (BMAI) in patients femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) before articular surface collapse. Twenty-two AVN underwent BMAI. The were followed for at least 12 months. Radiological assessments performed using plain radiography magnetic resonance imaging, staging was conducted based on Association Research Circulation Osseous system.

Synovial chondromatosis is characterized by the presence of metaplastic cartilage nodules originating from synovia, bursa and tendon sheaths. Although it extremely rare in ankle joint, malignant transformation possible. The choice treatment usually open surgery for excision loose bodies synovectomy. Limited data available concerning arthroscopic approaches. A 28-year-old male patient was evaluated pain swelling right joint. Based on findings physical examination radiographic investigations,...

Objective: Telecommunication has gained a different meaning in daily life with the introduction of mobile phone system. However, electromagnetic pollution increased parallel to this improvement. In study, we aimed investigate effects waves emitted from cellular phones operating at frequency 900 1800 MHz on bone mineral density human iliac wings, which are most common carriage sites for phones. Materials and Methods: A total 150 male volunteer participants were included study. The mean age...

Redisplacement is the most common complication of immobilisation in a cast for treatment diaphyseal fractures forearm children. We have previously shown that three-point index (TPI) can accurately predict redisplacement distal radius. In this prospective study we applied to assessment children and compared it with other cast-related indices might redisplacement. A total 76 were included. Their ages, initial displacement, quality reduction, site level casting according TPI, Canterbury padding...

Synovial chondromatosis is a disease that seldomly seen in shoulder joint and related to benign synovial proliferation synchronous chondral tissue formation within the cavity. Patients suffer from progressive restriction of range motion pain. Extra-articular involvement an extremely rare condition. Degenerative osteoarthritis, subluxation, bursitis are common complications untreated patients. Open or arthroscopic surgery suitable while there no consensus superiority different approaches. We...

We hypothesised that the anterior and posterior walls of body first sacral vertebra could be visualised with two different angles inlet view, owing to conical shape sacrum. Six dry male cadavers complete pelvic rings eight sacrums K-wires were used study effect canting (angling C-arm) fluoroscope towards head in 5° increments from 10° 55°. Fluoroscopic images taken each position. Anterior inclination measured between upper sacrum vertical line on lateral view. Three authors separately...

Considering the functions of aggrecanase-1 (ADAMTS4) and -2 (ADAMTS5), which are thought to be two major enzymes responsible for destruction aggrecans in arthritic diseases, we investigated whether important polymorphisms ADAMTS4 ADAMTS5 genes affect osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility. Our study took place Mugla, Turkey. Ninety-five cases were recruited following OA diagnosis (72 women 23 men), 80 individuals without any symptoms or radiographic signs (56 24 men) chosen as healthy controls....

Background: The purpose of the study was to present results a new minimally invasive operative method for Achilles tendon (AT) ruptures that could reduce nerve injuries and add no extra cost. Methods: Thirteen patients with acute AT who were treated surgery followed minimum 12 months included. At latest follow-up, American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, calf diameters, ability walk on tiptoe, ultrasound examination evaluated. average age 42.8 years (range, 31-62 years)....
