[ 1 ] - Axillary artery injury with proximal humerus epiphyseal separation: a rare case report

 Fracture of the proximal humerus associated with vascular injury has rarely been reported in children, and only two cases have been reported in the literature. In adults this combination has been reported more frequently. We present the case of a 14 year old boy with proximal humeral epiphyseal separation and axillary artery injury. 

[ 2 ] - Radiographic indices in one hundred fifty normal Iranian wrists

 Abstract Background: Radiography is the most widely available imaging modality. Precise evaluations of wrist x-ray can help diagnosis and evaluate the prognosis of many wrist disorders. Methods: We measured length, angles and indices in 150 posteroanterior and lateral wrist x-rays to determine normal dimensions and variations according to age and sex. All x-rays were made with standar...

[ 3 ] - Bilateral combined Monteggia and Galeazzi fractures: a case report

 We present an exceedingly rare case of left Monteggia-Galeazzi fracture-dislocation and right Monteggiadistal radius fracture occurring simultaneously in a 20-year old male patient who had fallen 13 meters from a building. The combination of Monteggia and Galeazzi fracture-dislocation in the same forearm is very rare and, to the best of our knowledge, simultaneous bilateral Monteggia and Galea...

[ 4 ] - Relationship between radiographic carpal indices and grip strength

 Abstract Background: The measurement of hand grip strength has several clinical applications to evaluate chronic hand disability, response to treatment, and work capacity after hand injury. Methods: We measured hand grip strength of 41 adults and compared their maximum strength with radiographic indices. Results: There was a significant relationship between hand grip strength and carpal height...

[ 5 ] - Enchondroma of the hand: the role of biopsy in the course of diagnosis and treatment
