Introducción: los síntomas, signos y hallazgos imagenológicos e histológicos del quiste óseo aneurismático (QOA) el osteosarcoma telangiectásico (OT) son similares, por lo que constituyen uno de diagnósticos diferenciales más difíciles establecer. Presentación caso: mujer 19 años asistió al servicio urgencias un hospital cuarto nivel atención en Bogotá dolor la cadera izquierda, donde se identi...

Iatrogenic non-penetrating arterial injuries have been reported following primary and revision hip arthroplasties. We report a patient who developed acute limb ischaemia after dynamic hip screw fixation was performed for an unstable intertrochanteric fracture. We discuss a previously unreported mechanism of traction creating tension on the atherosclerosed vessels and medial retraction tenting a...

Abstract Aim Dynamic hip screws (DHS) and short intra medullary (IM) nails are fixation methods used for neck of femur (NOF) fractures. Both require fluoroscopic assistance within the operating theatre, therefore exposing surgeon patient to ionising radiation. There is minimal literature investigating radiation exposure. Aims this study compare doses in each procedure estimate a normalised dose...

Background: Fracture neck of femur has always presented a great challenge to orthopedic surgeons due its nature going into non-union and osteonecrosis femoral head even with the best fixation method adequate reduction. Treatment fracture varies according patient’s age pattern. Purpose this study was compare outcome DHS side plate de-rotation screw multiple cannulated hip screws in adult.

A preliminary study of acoustic emission during orthopaedic screw fixation was performed using polyurethane foam as the bone-simulating material. Three sets of screws, a dynamic hip screw, a small fragment screw and a large fragment screw, were investigated, monitoring acoustic-emission activity during the screw tightening. In some specimens, screws were deliberately overtightened in order to i...

Background: Various management protocols for ipsilateral neck/intertrochanteric and shaft fracture femur have been formulated, there many disagreements related to their ideal fixation plan. The aim of this study was discuss the various type system available such kind complex injuries advantages using dual construct system.
 Patient Methods: In present we prospectively evaluated in 7 cases ...

Introduction: A high mortality rate is associated with hip fractures in the elderly. This because their bones are osteoporotic implants having less hold and there more co-morbidities Osteosynthesis proximal femoral nail (PFN) features advantages of rotational stability head-neck fragment. However, use technically ambitious accompanied by some risks error, which can lead to failure. study aims u...
