BACKGROUND: Neglected femoral neck fractures in young adults (age <60) pose a major challenge terms of appropriate treatments for each specific condition. AIM: The objective this case report is to explain the presentation neglected and its clinical consequences discuss management disease. CASE PRESENTATION: This presents 14-year-old male with displaced fracture neck, which was successfully m...

background: although giant cell tumor (gct) is considered to be a primary benign bone tumor, its aggressive behavior makes its diagnosis and treatment, difficult and challenging. this is especially true in distal radius where gct appears to be more aggressive and difficult to control locally. we report our clinical outcome of en-block resection and reconstruction with non-vascularized fibular a...

INTRODUCTION Free vascularized fibular grafts have been widely used for the reconstruction of long bone defects. However, the use of a vascularized tibial graft is precluded by its weight-bearing function and unacceptable donor site morbidity. CASE PRESENTATION We present a rare case of using a vascularized tibia-fibular composite graft taken from a 6-year-old Chinese boy's ipsilateral lower ...

BACKGROUND The fibular collateral ligament is the primary stabilizer to varus instability of the knee. Untreated fibular collateral ligament injuries can lead to residual knee instability and can increase the risk of concurrent cruciate ligament reconstruction graft failures. Anatomic reconstructions of the fibular collateral ligament have not been biomechanically validated. PURPOSE To descri...

This article presents the history and development of as well as the results from the various techniques of vascularized bone grafting for the treatment of osteonecrosis (ON) of the femoral head. The authors have treated more than 2600 patients who had femoral head ON, using a vascularized fibular graft by way of an intraosseous approach. The results from this vast experience are summarized and ...

INTRODUCTION Distal humerus is a very rare predilection site of osteosarcoma. Limb salvage surgery has widely replaced amputation for surgical treatment of most types of malignant bone sarcomas. PRESENTATION OF CASE We presented a 42 years old male with rapidly growing osteosarcoma on his right distal humerus. After induction chemotherapy, wide excision and reconstruction using free vasculari...

BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head commonly occurs in patients aged under 50 years. Because of a high rate of complications associated with joint replacement surgery in this population, surgical techniques, such as vascularized fibular grafting, have been devised in an attempt to salvage the femoral head. The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of bone scintigraphy to pre...

Introduction: Intracapsular neck of femur fracture is a semi-emergency in patients below 60 years (mostly due to RTA) the precarious nature blood supply, kinking vessels between bone fragments, presence angiogenesis inhibiting factors, and absence cambium layer. Immediate internal fixation along with preservation femoral head this age group mandatory prevent non-union avascular necrosis. Materi...

Previous studies documented the use of fibular allograft in the treatment of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) with bone graft epiphysiodesis (BGE). This study describes the results of using a 10-mm diameter premilled fibular allograft packed with demineralized bone matrix placed across the physis in an open surgical approach under image intensification. A review identified 45 cases of B...
