Background: Although ventriculoperitoneal shunting (VPS) is a universal treatment for hydrocephalus, it generally well-known that the procedure often has complications. Shunt catheter migration one such complication, but no reports of into thoracic cavity are associated with surgical technique. Herein, I present case shunt alongside anatomical pitfalls rib structure. Case Description: The patie...

BACKGROUND Determining the sex of deceased is easy when a complete skeleton is available for examination. On the whole, the bones are heavier, larger and markings of muscular attachments are more pronounced in the male than in the female. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was attempted to evolve an easily applied formula to enable the assessment of sex in an unknown clavicles and to know ab...

PATIENT Male, 30 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Giant cell bone tumor Symptoms: Bone swelling • pain MEDICATION - Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Oncology. OBJECTIVE Unusual clinical course. BACKGROUND Cooper first reported giant cell tumors (GCT) in the 18(th) century. The clavicle is a rare site for tumors. Metastatic tumors are more common than benign. This is the first case of GCT lateral end of c...

Bipolar segmental clavicle fractures are simultaneous clavicle fractures of both proximal and distal ends. Few case reports describing these fractures have been published, and the management of these injuries have remained controversial. Non-operative treatment is likely to result in poor shoulder function due to the instability of the fracture in patients with high physical demands. In contras...

Fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle are common in pediatric patients; most of these fractures occur at the physeal level representing Salter Harris injuries. The vast majority of fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle are managed nonoperatively. In this report, we describe a unique type of fracture of the distal end of the clavicle in the pediatric patients in which the fracture ...

Fractures of the clavicle comprise between 5% to10% of all fractures. Medial clavicular fractures are uncommon and are normally caused by high-energy trauma. A low impact mechanism of injury should raise suspicion of a pathological fracture, but this case report highlights the difficulty in diagnosing the pathological nature of an acute fracture of the clavicle. We describe a patient who presen...

INTRODUCTION The standard treatment for clavicle fractures non operative but surgical management is essential in certain specific indications. The purpose of this study is to report a not very commonly seen bilateral fracture of a clavicle in a young female patient treated with intramedullary fixation. CASE REPORT A 23 year old female patient sustained a bilateral clavicle fracture as a resul...

INTRODUCTION Clavicle fractures are very common, accounting for approximately 4% of all adult fractures. Segmental bipolar fractures involving the lateral and the medial ends of the clavicle are extremely rare, with only isolated cases reported in the literature. The injury mechanism is often unclear and the management of these fractures remains controversial. CASE PRESENTATION Here is to rep...

Coracoid fractures are uncommon injuries, in isolation or in association with other osseoligamentous injuries about the shoulder girdle. We report a case of successful operative management of symptomatic ipsilateral nonunions of a type I coracoid base fracture and a lateral one-third clavicular fracture, which developed following nonoperative treatment of this exceedingly rare injury pattern. F...

Acromioclavicular (AC) joint instability is a fairly common and particularly limiting injury that may result in persistent pain and reduced quality of life. In most cases, conservative management is successful. However, in the case of a severe AC joint dislocation, surgical intervention may be warranted. Previous surgical techniques for treatment of AC joint instability include screw fixation b...
