background:  hip fracture management in supine position on a fracture table with biplane fluoroscopic views has some difficulties which leads to prolongation of surgery and increasing x- rays’ dosage. the purpose of this study was to report the results and complications of hip fracture management in lateral position on a conventional operating table with just anteroposterior fluoroscopic view. ...

abstract   background: fractures of the tibia are important for their commonness and controversy in their management. both conservative and surgical techniques have been introduced in an effort to speed time to :::::union::::: while minimizing the occurrence of complications. standard treatment for low-energy tibial shaft fractures includes closed reduction and cast immobilization. the purpose ...

The way fractures affect seismic waves depends on fracture mechanical parameters, such as compliance and saturating fluid, and on their geometric properties, such as dimensions and spacing. When fractures are small relative to the seismic wavelength, waves will be weakly affected by fractures, and in effective medium theory, a zone comprised of many small fractures is equivalent to a homogeneou...

Objective: Correlation of osteoporosis (OP) with type 2diabetes mellitus (DM) , is not as clear as type 1 DM. The purpose of this study was to compare the frequency of OP and osteoporotic fractures in post- menopausal women with and without type 2 DM in Sari, Iran. Materials and Methods: Eighty post-menopausal women with type 2 DM and 80 non-diabetic controls enrolled in this study. Bone mine...

recognition of relationship between the present day stress state and fractures is very important in fractured reservoirs. fractures that are parallel or oblique to maximum horizontal stress have more tendencies to tensile deformation and tensile deformed fractures will be more permeable. the dalan formation is one of the main gas reservoirs of iran witch most of the production from this formati...

conclusions metacarpal neck fractures are a common injury in young and active patients that results in substantial missed time from work. while the surgical indications are well-described, there is no consensus on the optimal treatment modality because of high complication rates. dorsal plating has higher complication rates than closed reduction and percutaneous pinning, but is necessary in com...

Root fractures are defined as fractures involving dentine, cementum, and pulpal and supportive tissues. They comprise about 0.5–7% of all dental injuries. Horizontal root fractures are commonly observed in the maxillary anterior region and 75% of these fractures occur in the maxillary central incisors. Case report: This case report is about a 26-year-old male referred to the endodontic departme...

background: fractures of femur are among the most important causes of mortality in musculoskeletal injuries. owning to lack of adequate research to compare various techniques of fracture stabilization, there has not yet been an agreement over a protocol to utilize a specific type of splint for femoral fracture immobilization. this study was thus conducted to compare the effects of simple and tr...

conclusions in our study, we treated this rare fracture successfully using a modified swashbuckler approach and found it to be a good approach for such fractures as compared to the conventional approach. case presentation a 32-year-old male sustained a bicondylar hoffa fracture of the right femur which was treated by open reduction and internal fixation using a modified swashbuckler approach. a...
