condylar dislocation is not an uncommon condition and occurs when the condyles are displaced anterior to the articular eminence and are unable to reduce back into the glenoid fossa. long-standing dislocations are difficult to treat with the conservative methods and usually need surgical intervention. in this paper, a long-standing dislocation treated by bilateral extra-oral ramus osteotomy is d...

Bilateral anterior shoulder dislocations are rarely seen and usually occur due to the same mechanism arising from traumatic injuries. In here, we discussed three cases of traumatic bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation , one had an additional patella fracture, and the other one had bilateral tuberculum majus fracture. All of the patients were female and our first case that presented here was ...

This study was conducted to explore epidemiologic features of traumatic elbow dislocation with associated fractures in pediatric population following appropriate treatment options.Incidence of elbow dislocation with associated fractures was analyzed in 67 children using elbow radiographs. Treatment for the displaced elbow joint was performed by closed reduction and proper immobilization. Surgic...

Traumatic dislocation of the head of the radius in children may be either an isolated injury or, more commonly, part of a more complex injury to the elbow, such as the Monteggia fracture-dislocation. in that injury the dislocation of the head of the radius is described as anterior or posterior and the fracture of the ulna affects its shaft (Watson-Jones 1956). Wise (1941) reported a case of lat...

Spatial perspective-taking is an ability to understand in which direction an object is located relative to an agent (e.g., another person or a chair). Previous studies showed that left/right judgments prompted an egocentric transformation strategy (i.e., mental rotation of the self) whereas front/behind judgments prompted other strategies (e.g., tracing a line of sight). To examine whether the ...

We express the number of distinct primitive cuboids with given odd diagonal in terms of the twisted Euler function with alternating Dirichlet character of period four, and two counting formulas for binary sums of squares. Based on the asymptotic behaviour of the sums of these formulas, we derive an approximation formula for the cumulative number of primitive cuboids.

The isolated dislocation of the radial head is frequently described in the lesion of MONTEGGIA. However it can be a rare isolated pattern of injury in children. Only 81 cases were reported in the literature to our knowledge. The case we report concerns a 13 years old boy, examined 8 days after injury. Because of failure of manual reduction, we performed a surgical management with excellent resu...
