Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the fetal biometric growth measurements (Head Circumference, Bi-Parietal Diameter, and Femur Length) between male female fetuses on antenatal ultrasound in our population. Methodology: This an observational carried out Department Radiology CMH Malir, Karachi Ziauddin hospital, from July 2016 till 2018 using non-probability sampling technique. A to...

Introduction: Osteochondroplasty of the anterior head-neck junction is often performed to treat femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI) on the assumption that the underlying deformity is inadequate anterior offset of the femoral head. However, other morphologic abnormalities, including reduced anteversion, posterior slip, and widening of the neck can all cause loss of joint motion. In this study we...

An analysis was made of histopathological developments in femur head cartilage in a group of Wistar rats receiving a daily intra-muscular injection of 2.5 mg prednisolone. This group was divided into four experimental batches, each consisting of 6 rats. Batches were sacrificed at 15, 30, 60 and 90 days after the start of the experiment. Degeneration of the femur head cartilage was observed from...

Introduction: Technical difficulties in managing a case of transcervical femur fracture post-polio residual paralysis patient with dysplastic femur. Case Report: We present 66 year male Post-Polio Paralysis walking Hand to knee gait who sustained Femur fracture. The faced this were narrow medullary canal, coxa valgus, greater trochanter, hypoplastic lesser Shallow acetabulum, inability compare ...

OBJECTIVE Non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONF) is considered to be a disease that occurs primarily due to ischemia of the femoral head, while its etiology and pathology are not fully understood. It is therefore necessary to identify the characteristics of the hemodynamics of the femoral head. In this study, the hemodynamics in the ilium and proximal regions of the femur, includ...

sists of deformity or defective and retarded growth, or defective ossification, of the upper half of the shaft of the femur. The radiographs in these cases reveal that the upper half of the femur is absent. But subsequent operative procedures in these cases have shown that actually there is a cartilaginous portion present, representing the upper half of the shaft of the femur. At later ages, fr...

  Background: Some studies have previously shown that geometry of proximal femur can affect the probability of fracture and type of fracture. It happens since the geometry of the proximal femur determines how a force is applied to its different parts. In this study, we have compared proximal femur’s geometric characteristics in femoral neck (FNF), intertrochanteric (ITF) and Subtrochanteric (ST...
