Tuberculosis osteomyelitis is rarely seen in the diaphyseal bones. It may be confused with Brodie's abscess due to similar clinical, radiological and laboratory findings. Late diagnosis of disease causes bone destruction. a rare condition caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Its incidence has increased Western countries recent years HIV infection, increasing elderly population emerging resistant strains. The slow progress tuberculous osteomyelitis, lack significant elevations values changes...

In this study, our aim was to evaluate the glenoid version, height, and width measurements based on gender, side, age, hand dominance in Turkish population using computed tomography (CT) images.In CT images of 140 patients (62 females 78 males; mean age: 39.6 years) who had no shoulder complaints were evaluated retrospectively. Glenoid version (GV), AP diameter (width), SI (height) both shoulders measured images. Correlations between patient GV size evaluated.The right a -0.93 ± 7.80 degrees...

We aimed to investigate the change in bone mineral density (BMD) first postoperative year patients that underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due primary osteoarthritis of knee.Preoperative and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurements 76 with osteoarthritis, who undergone surgery between 2016 2018 recommendation for TKA, were statistically evaluated study.Of 19 a normal BMD preoperative period, 73.7% (n = 14) continued have period. Of 34 low (osteopenia) 91.2% 31) did not show any...

Pulmonary embolism is a serious early complication of arthroplasty procedures that can develop after deep venous thrombosis. The present study aimed to compare rivaroxaban and enoxaparin in terms preventing DV PE, also this study, we compared the complications due these drugs patients undergoing elective arthroplasty.214 were divided into three groups based on their treatment regimens. In group I, was used, II, III, used throughout hospitalization, hospital discharge, used. These according...

We aimed to compare the changes in coronal alignment of ankle joints and their clinical effects after high tibial osteotomy (HTO) unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA).50 HTO 54 UKA patients who were operated on for medial osteoarthritis between 2013 2018 retrospectively evaluated. The hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), proximal (MPTA), plafond inclination (TPI) talar (TI) angles measured before operation. Visual analog scale (VAS), short form 36 (SF-36), ankle-hindfoot (AHS) scores both groups...

Objectives: Bone grafts have been used for more than one hundred years in orthopedic surgery. Autografts are still the gold standard with respect to their osteoconductive, osteoinductive and osteogenetic peculiarities. Cancelleous most commonly autografts porous structure increasing contact area. Although iliac crest is preferred donor site, femur, tibia, distal radius olecranon also employed when they a suitable location recipient site. The site can provide ample amounts of bone graft...

Purpose: Leaving extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon out of the retinaculum in cases performed through a dorsal approach at level after opening 3rd compartment reduces risk adhesion and rupture. The aim this study was to attempt understand whether leaving EPL subcutaneous tissue that is released from during surgery, without reconstructing third compartment, causes any change extension strength range motion (ROM) interphalangeal (IP) metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints thumb. Patients...

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the positive union effect caused by head trauma could be transferred between individuals. Materials and methods: Seventy-two male rats with an average weight of 375 g were used in study divided into four groups including 18 each group. Group 1 consisted serum donor that exposed trauma, while 2 long bone fractures given obtained from 1, 3 included control isolated fractures, 4 both fractures. For radiological evaluation, ratio width...

Objective: The scaphoid bone is the most injured carpal and cause of severe wrist dysfunction seen in nonunion cases. probability avascular necrosis very high especially fractures proximal pole, due to retrograde blood flow region. In these cases, vascularized pedicle grafts, with rates union, a good alternative conventional techniques. this study, we present results grafting grafts harvested from 4-5 extensor compartment artery (ECA) fixation Herbert screw patients pseudoarthroses...

Amaç: Alt ekstremite kısalıklarının tedavisinde yeni bir yöntem olan uzayabilen intramedüller çivi ile uzatmaları yapılan hastaların klinik ve radyolojik sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Retrospektif bu çalışmada, kliniğimize 2013-2016 yılları arasında alt ekstremitede kısalık nedeniyle başvuran hastalardan uzatma operasyonu 12 hastaya ait 13 ekstremitenin sonuçları değerlendirilmiştir. Hastaların ortalama yaşı 26,9 (dağılım:13-51), cinsiyet dağılımı 2 erkek,...

Objective: In our study, we compared the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) with tourniquet and Hemovac drain application in terms bleeding, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), infection development functional scores following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods: Our TKA cases were evaluated retrospectively. The group that was not applied a or but administered TXA designated as study (TXA group) given no control group. age, gender, operated side, body mass index, comorbid diseases, anesthesia type,...
