Objectives: To evaluate the utility and complications of using carbon fiber implants (CFIs) compared with standard titanium alloy (TI) intramedullary for stabilization impending or existing pathologic fractures. Design: Retrospective comparison. Patients/Participants: Ninety-four patients undergoing fixation 100 fractures between 2014-2019 were identified inclusion. Main Outcome Measurements: The primary outcome was postoperative complications. Other outcomes included implant type,...
A 69-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer, on long-term antiresorptive medications, was treated carbon fiber cephalomedullary nails for bilateral atypical femur fractures. Her thigh pain presumed to be from metastatic lesions and radiation without standard imaging. The index procedure complicated by left nail fracture. patient underwent exchange fixation plate augmentation. At 1 year, the asymptomatic radiographs demonstrating healing.This case highlights importance appropriate...
Background: To evaluate the effects of COVID-19 restrictions on amount fireworks injuries during Fourth July.

Introduction: There is minimal focus on traumatic lower extremity amputations due to their relatively low incidence, but they often come with a higher morbidity and mortality than upper counterparts. The purpose of this study was evaluate the incidence trends in United States over 10 yr. Methods: National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) queried from 2008 2017 for presenting U.S. emergency departments. Date presentation, age at amputated appendage, disposition, cause amputation...
Successful pain control in elderly hip fracture is associated with decreased morbidity, anxiety, delirium, and length of stay, but standard treatment intravenous opioids also comes its own harmful side effects.Peripheral nerve blocks, such as fascia iliaca compartment blocks have been shown other countries to successfully reduce levels are not common the preoperative period.This project was undertaken evaluate efficacy fractures.This a single institution retrospective analysis quality...
Category: Ankle; Bunion Introduction/Purpose: Peripheral nerve blocks have become an integral part of orthopedic surgery to assist with postoperative pain. However, 40% patients who undergo a peripheral block will experience rebound pain, which in turn, long-acting narcotics may be able block.
