[ 1 ] - Effectiveness of Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) on Comminuted Tibial or Femoral Fractures

Background: Comminuted fractures happen frequently due to traumas. Fixation without opening the fracture site,known as minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO), has recently become prevalent. This study has beendesigned to assess the outcomes of this treatment for tibial and femoral comminuted fractures.Methods: A total of 60 patients with comminuted femoral or tibial fractures were opera...

[ 2 ] - Relationship between Bone Mineral Density and Serum Vitamin D with Low Energy Hip and Distal Radius Fractures: A Case-Control Study

  Background: The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between serum vitamin D and the status of bone mineral density in patients with low-energy hip and distal radius fracture. Methods: This retrospective case-control study was performed between January 2013 and January 2014. Participants aged 55 years or older were divided to case group including 85 patients with lo...

[ 3 ] - Complicated Congenital Dislocation of the Knee: A Case Report

  Congenital dislocation of the knee (CDK) is a rare disorder. We report the case of a 7-year-old girl with bilateral knee stiffness, marked anterior bowing of both legs, and inability to walk without aid. Radiologic investigation revealed bilateral knee joint dislocation accompanied by severe anterior bowing of both tibia proximally and posterior bowing of both femur distally, demonstrating ...

[ 4 ] - The Comparison of Hip Abductors with Hip External Rotator Muscles Fatigue on Static Standing Balance in Subjects with and without Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Purpose: The patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders of the knee joint. Hip muscles’ weakness is one of the reasons for PFPS occurrence. The aim of this study was to recognize the effective muscle group in prevention and treatment of patients with PFPS. Methods: This is a prospective and quasi-experimental study in which 30 participants (15 ...

[ 5 ] - Designing a Prognostic Scoring System for Predicting the Outcomes of Proximal Fifth Metatarsal Fractures at 20 Weeks

Background: Fractures of the proximal fifth metatarsal bone are among the most common fractures observed in the foot and their classification and management has been subject to much discussion and disagreement. In this study, we aim to identify and quantify the effect of possible predictors of the outcome of the treatment of proximal fifth metatarsal fractures.Methods: Patients with established...

[ 6 ] - Iliac Pedicle Wedge Graft as a New Modification for Iliac Osteotomies in Young Adolescents: A Single-blind Randomized Clinical Trial

Background: Iliac osteotomies in adolescent patients may accompany graft related difficulties such as graft absorptionand delayed union. A new modification of iliac osteotomies has been proposed to address these difficulties.Methods: A total of 24 consecutive hip joints in 21 juvenile or adolescent patients who were candidate for salter ortriple pelvic osteotomy were included....
