In-Hospital Outcomes after Hemiarthroplasty versus Total Hip Arthroplasty for Isolated Femoral Neck Fractures

The primary research question of our study was whether in-hospital adverse events, post-operative length of stay (LOS) and mortality in patients 60 year of age or older differed between tot...
متن کاملHigh mortality after pelvis and lower limb fractures in ESRD

However, the mortality associated with pelvis and lower limb fractures in ESRD patients remains unknown. We reviewed the medical records of all chronic haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis patients hospitalized at Maisonneuve-Rosemo...
متن کاملChanges in biochemical markers after lower limb fractures.
BACKGROUND The bone remodeling sequence after bone fracture changes the concentrations of biochemical bone markers, but the relationships of fracture size and of healing time to changes in biomarkers are unclear. The present pilot study was undertaken to determine the changes found in serum bone markers after plate osteosynthesis of closed distal tibial and malleolar fractures during a study pe...
متن کاملOutcomes of the isolated closed tibial shaft fractures treated nonsurgically
Abstract Background: Fractures of the tibia are important for their commonness and controversy in their management. Both conservative and surgical techniques have been introduced in an effort to speed time to :::union::: while minimizing the occurrence of complications. Standard treatment for low-energy tibial shaft fractures includes closed reduction and cast immobilization. The purpose of...
