The aim of this study was a clinical and radiographic evaluation the minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) method for treatment in dogs with tibial fractures. Ten different breeds, ages, sex fractures were used as subjects. A medial approach to tibia all cases. tuberosity palpated proximally short incision made along midline. After reduction fracture, proximal distal insertion incision...

This paper reviews the available literature on effect of direct current on fracture healing; from a diagnostic view point. It also reviews various fracture treatments in practice, diagnostic tools, computational modeling and fracture healing prediction using Engineering techniques. We attempt to predict the complicated process fracture healing treated using DC electrical stimulation by computat...

INTRODUCTION Although periprosthetic fractures of the femur have been well documented, insufficiency fractures following total hip arthroplasty (THA) have been rarely described. We report a case of an insufficiency fracture in the distal tibia and fibula that occurred after THA. CASE REPORT A 54-year-old woman presented with severe pain in the bilateral hip joints and was diagnosed with end-s...

Effects of optional use of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) treatments for delayed and non-union stress fractures at the anterior mid-tibia in athletes were examined. The subjects were 5 competitive athletes (4 males and 1 female) with the anterior mid-tibia stress fracture, which was confirmed by radiography and bone scintigraphy (Technetium-99m). All patients consistently received dail...

BACKGROUND A substantial body of evidence supports the use of focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (fESWT) in the non-invasive treatment of fracture nonunions. On the other hand, virtually no studies exist on the use of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) for this indication. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 22 patients treated with rESWT for fracture nonunions of superfi...
