BackgroundA direct comparison of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 positive patients with a negative control group undergoing an operative intervention during the current pandemic is lacking, and reliable estimate assumed difference in morbidity mortality between both patient categories remains unknown.MethodsWe included all consecutive confirmed pre- or postoperative status (operated 27 hospitals) 4 emergency elective operations. A propensity score-matched clinical outcomes...
Different fixation methods are used for treatment of unstable lateral clavicle fractures (LCF). Definitive consensus and guidelines the surgical LCF have not been established. The aim this study was to compare patient-reported functional outcome after open reduction internal with hook plate (CHP) superior extension (SCPLE).A dual-center retrospective cohort performed. All patients operatively treated Neer type II V between 2011 2016, CHP (n = 23) or SCPLE 53), were eligible inclusion....

Septic arthritis of the pubic symphysis is a potentially severe disease. Athletes are at risk this form spontaneous arthritis, as inflammation bone due to muscular stress relatively common. Oedema might predispose infection through bacteraemia or local bacterial translocation. Suspicion should be raised when an athlete complains groin pain and has signs (i.e., fever, elevated white blood cell count, C-reactive protein). Diagnosis made by imaging showing combined with positive (blood)...
Proximal humeral fracture-dislocations (PHFD) are a special entity in proximal fracture treatment. The aim of this study is to present our minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique through an anterolateral deltoid split approach. In addition, we performed retrospective cohort analyzing the patient reported functional outcome and complications.A single center was performed. All patients operated approach for PHFD between 2009 2016 were eligible inclusion. primary endpoint...
We report a rare case of recurrent abscess formation, including being at retroperitoneal site, due to lost and migrating appendicolith. Over four-year period following an episode perforated appendicitis, otherwise healthy young man underwent two operations for formation with eventual stone removal. Appendicoliths can pose challenge during the diagnostic therapeutic journey, adequate attempts removal need be made prevent avoidable complications. In patients suffering from flank pain abscesses...
