(Medin, Nové Mesto n. Morave, Czech Republic) locking (Auxein Inc., 35 Doral, Florida) screws were designed according manufacturer...

Background: The use of bromelain for the removal eschar in deep burns is considered to be effective because it does not affect unaffected skin and leaves a clean dermis after use. main objective this study find out whether good alternative surgical debridement. In order achieve that, we aim evaluate its indications, limitations, safety measures. Methods: current was conducted on group 30 patients with burn lesions, aged 20 56 years, from which 15 underwent enzymatic debridement acted as...

Glomus tumors account for 1-4% of benign hand tumors. In 65% cases, it is located in the nail bed. Its rarity makes misdiagnosis problems relatively common. Symptomatology characterized by hallmark symptomatic triad. Imaging investigations may guide diagnosis, but diagnosis made pathological examination doubled immunohistochemical (IHC) markers.We studied a group seven female patients, aged 28 to 56 years. Clinical revealed presence characteristic Ultrasound imaging tests were...

Background and objectives: Fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) are increasing interest lately, being associated with a loss mobility affecting quality life. The aim our study was to investigate effect FFP on disability pain in patients, after one year since injury. Materials Methods: In study, we included 76 patients diagnosed FFP, who were admitted trauma department between January 2016 2019, above 65 years age. Von Korff intensity scores calculated hospital at 6 months 1 year. Results:...

Background: The broad spectrum of diagnoses and clinical features hand tumors the absence pathognomonic signs often lead to an inaccurate or delayed diagnosis. However, only a few reports have comprehensively referenced diagnosis tumors. This study intends highlight clinical, imaging histological characteristics uncommon tumor-like lesions. Methods: In this retrospective study, we report series 80 patients diagnosed with rare lesions without skin damage. Age, gender, tumor location,...

Fragility fractures of the pelvis have lately gained interest due to increased incidence caused by aging populations. The aim study was evaluate results therapy in patients with pelvic fragility fracture admitted between January 2015 and September 2018 St. Spiridon Emergency Hospital Iasi order improve therapeutic approach. We assessed correlation pain early mobilization under weight bearing condition without osteoporotic history. emphasizes role recovery process underline serious...

Objectives: To assess the outcome of sinus tarsi approach and C-Nail fixation displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures (DIACFs). Design: Prospective study. Setting: University Trauma Department. Patients: Sixty-four patients (mean age 44.3 years, 48 men 16 women) with 75 DIACFs were treated between October 1, 2016 December 31, 2018. Intervention: In all cases, posterior facet was reduced through fixed one or 2 screws. After reducing fragments to articular block, final performed...

This retrospective study aimed to assess the outcome of a modified Stoppa approach using an anatomically precontoured plate for treatment acetabular fractures. In total, 30 patients (mean age 50.3 years; 25 men and 5 women) with fractures were treated between January 1, 2018 December 31, 2019. all cases, fracture reduction was performed through fixed omega plate. specific patterns, additional approaches needed (lateral window in 4 cases posterior Kocher‑Langenbeck 7 cases). Patients assessed...

Although there are studies showing the link between homocysteine and bone quality, relationship remains controversial. The purpose of study was to investigate levels in patients with fragility fractures pelvis their association serum Total Antioxidant Status.The included a group 60 patients, aged ]65years, pelvic osteoporosis admitted our trauma department January 2015 2018 control 30 ]65years without or osteoporosis.The total antioxidant status (TAS) (Hcy) concentrations were determined all...

Bone fracture fixation uses both consecrated materials, such as metals/metal alloys, well synthetic materials. Synthetic materials are extremely versatile in terms of simulating biological structures, biocompatibility and, some cases, avoid the subsequent interventions for removing prosthetic material. Fixing an osteoporotic presents major risks failure due mainly to bone fragility. To reduce risk failure, have been improved with various cements. The purpose current study was assess...

The appearance of fragility fractures the pelvic ring is most often due to low-intensity trauma. These types can occur without trauma, especially in patients with osteoporosis. purpose for this study was highlight importance CT-scan fracture pelvis. In our we included a number 103 who presented between December 2016 - 2019 at hospital, fractures, all over 65 years age. mean age 72.12±6.16 years. Plain X-ray not sufficient complete and accurate diagnosis Posterior lesions cannot be determined...

Abstract The article describes the analysis of an industrial structure (reinforced concrete decanter tank for drinking water’s storage in Iasi – Romania area) order to justify proposals structural rehabilitation ensure stability. In this regard, a computational model was created Graitec Advanced Design, using physico-mechanical characteristics materials (concrete, reinforcement) from initial design. Subsequently, data obtained technical assessment report and non-destructive tests carried out...

(1) Background: Cutaneous anthrax is a disease caused by Gram-positive bacillus, spore-forming Bacillus anthracis (BA). accounts for 95% of all cases, with mortality between 10–40% in untreated forms. The most feared complication, which can be life-threatening and rarely encountered described the literature, compartment syndrome. (2) Methods: We report series six cases cutaneous from same endemic area. In two was complicated systematic review conducted according to guidelines, PubMed, Google...

Background/Objectives: The aim is to bring attention the existence of a rare type trauma hand, high-pressure injection injury, that appears be minor with negligible signs and symptoms within first hours after accident, but in reality, produces significant tissue destruction severe consequences. Recognizing this by medical personnel, understanding mechanisms involved, knowing etiological prognostic factors can lead early treatment initiation avoid mutilating sequelae. Methods: A retrospective...
