Background: Given the rare nature of tibial tubercle fractures, previous studies are mostly limited to small, single-center series. This results in practice variation. Previous research has shown poor surgeon agreement on utilization advanced imaging, but improved evidence-based indications may help balance clinical utility with resource utilization. The purpose this study is quantify diagnostic practices for fractures a large, multicenter cohort, attention usage and impact imaging. Methods:...
This study examined the volume and characteristics of common surgically treated fractures in children during COVID-19 pandemic. The worldwide spread affected society numerous ways. Social distancing led to changes types activities performed by individuals, including children. Physicians saw a shift orthopedic trauma distribution. We predicted that with change participated in, number or type injuries sustained would as well.A retrospective review was who fracture forearm, supracondylar...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a common and devastating genetic disease primarily caused by exon deletions that create frameshift in dystrophin. Exon skipping therapy seeks to correct this masking an during the mRNA maturation process, restoring dystrophin expression, but creating edited protein missing both original defect therapeutically skipped region. Crucially, it possible many defects alternative ways, either before or after patient's defect. This results alternatively edited,...
Paralytic agents are occasionally used during the surgical treatment of type III (OTA 13A2) supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHFx) in children depending on surgeon preference. create a neuromuscular blockade and therefore may potentially help with ease fracture reduction. Controversy regarding use paralytic agent as an adjunct to anesthesia exists due potential associated adverse drug reactions, including prolonged paralysis, cardiovascular effects, or electrolyte abnormalities. The purpose...
MAGEC rods (NuVasive) provide distraction growth in early-onset scoliosis. Pedicle screw use with can lead to anchor failure. Sublaminar bands offer superior fixation points for the system while preserving pedicles and facets, avoiding spinal cord injury, eliminating need fluoroscopy. be safely used up cervical vertebra four (C4), substantially decreasing risk of complications such as pull-out, rod breakage, proximal junctional kyphosis that typically occurs pedicle screws hooks.
