Recent studies have suggested that segmental ablation is the treatment of choice for patients with ingrowing toenails and success rate 96%. This procedure has been common practice among chiropodists 20 years, usually using phenol in United Kingdom, sodium hydroxide States. However, there little critical evaluation relative merits two chemicals, period chemical application, or duration post-operative pain healing time. We therefore embarked upon a number controlled prospective to examine...

The effectiveness of various therapeutic methods on bone fracture has been demonstrated in several studies. In the present study, we tried to evaluate effect local low‐magnitude, high‐frequency vibration (LMHFV) rat tibia comparison with pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) during healing process. Mid‐diaphysis tibiae fractures were induced 30 Sprague‐Dawley rats. rats assigned into groups such as control (CONT), LMHFV (15 min/day, 7 days/week), and PEMF (3.5 h/day, days/week) for a...

PURPOSE. To evaluate outcome of open reduction and Kirschner wire fixation with triceps lengthening for neglected elbow dislocations. METHODS. Records 6 women 14 men aged 7 to 60 (mean, 20) years who underwent dislocations were reviewed. The posterolateral (n=11), posterior (n=4), posteromedial (n=5). No patient had a neurologic deficit. Elbow stiffness was the main indication surgery. duration dislocation 25 45 days in 11 patients >45 9; mean 47 days. Mayo Performance Index (MEPI) used...

Background: In this study, we evaluated the results of external bone transport, which was applied to 11 patients with traumatic loss who had not completed their development.

Candida arthritis is an unusual manifestation that usually affects the knees. A 35-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of pain and swelling in right knee. Swelling persisted after anti-inflammatory treatment. Peripheric spondyloarthritis was considered, but methotrexate, sulfasalazine, methylprednisolone did not reduce swelling. Direct examination synovial fluid culture were positive for albicans. Intravenous intra-articular amphotericin-B administered. The regressed direct...

The aim of our study is to evaluate the functional outcomes and quality life in adult ipsilateral femur tibia fractures.26 patients (21 male, 5 female; mean age 30 years, range: 18 66) treated for fractures were evaluated retrospectively. For fractures, intramedullary nails used 15 (12 antegrade, 3 retrograde), plate 11 (10 locked-plate, 1 blade-plate with a 95 degree angle). locked-plate 13 patients, 9 external fixator multiple screws patient. According Blake McBryde classification, 17 type...

The aim of this study was to assess interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-1Ra, IL-36, and IL-38 levels together with hs-CRP in patients different radiographic grades knee osteoarthritis (OA) comparison healthy individuals.

Objective . The aim of this study was to determine, by plain radiography, if there is a relationship between sacralization and low back pain. Methods Five hundred lumbosacral radiographs pain patients 500 control groups were examined. Data collection consisted the subject’s age at time imaging, gender, number lumbar vertebral bodies, bilateral height measurement lowest transverse process. Dysplastic processes classified according Castellvi radiographic classification system. incidence in...

Objective: Although foreign body injuries are quite common, there an insufficient number of publications on this matter. The aim study was to evaluate patients with injuries, and determine the treatment algorithm. Methods: A total 97 were evaluated, including 53 men 44 women. Ninety-one underwent surgery, six treated conservatively. Surgery performed in operating room all cases. To ensure that removed, fluoroscopic control completed during after procedure. Antibiotics administered routinely...

Being able to predict recurrence after the treatment of shoulder instability would be helpful in planning appropriate treatment.To define multiple subscapularis tendon sign (MSTS) as a novel anatomic variant and possible risk factor for anterior stabilization evaluate it, together with other factors described literature.Case-control study; Level evidence, 3.A total 87 patients met study criteria underwent arthroscopic instability. The MSTS was evaluated this group. Age, sex, hand dominance,...
