چکیده
CONCLUSION: Despite their similarities in clinical and radiographic presentation, pediatric JE phalangeal fractures are a distinct entity from SH2 fractures. Presenting with significantly more radiographic angulation and clinical instability, JE fractures more frequently required operative fixation compared to SH2 fractures. This distinction is important when determining the treatment strategy employed (operative fixation versus nonoperative management) as well as potential length and degree of immobilization/stabilization for nonoperative management to increase the success of treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Microsurgical abdominally-based breast reconstruction (MABR) typically entails an inpatient length of stay between three to five days. However, most payors reimburse for only the first two hospital days after routine mastectomy regardless of the breast reconstruction method. Moreover, free flap take-back and salvage rates both drop drastically after 48 hours resulting in rapidly r...
