Abstract   Background: The tibial diaphyseal fractures are the most common type of long   bone fractures encountered by most orthopedic surgeons. In accordance with descriptive indices of tibia fractures on the basis of their location in the bone, distal tibia   fractures have the second incidence of all tibia fractures after the middle tibia fractures.   The purpose of the study was to asses...

Introduction: The human stature forms part of his or her biological profile. It becomes more important during personal identification in case of mass disasters and in search of missing persons. We measured various parameters of the dried tibia, then by applying linear regression we formulated maximum tibia length which can be conveniently used for arriving at human stature. Methods: The obtain...

introduction left ventricular (lv) twist is believed to store potential energy and plays an important role in generating diastolic suction. recent advances in echocardiography techniques have allowed quantification of lv twist. the aim of the present study was to compare lv twist and torsion in healthy human subjects determined by velocity vector imaging (vvi) and tissue doppler imaging (tdi) a...

conclusions with the average 89 months follow-up, no recurrence of the diseases was found in the patients. it seems that using of cement and oral anti-parasitic, after extensive resection of the lesion is a proper treatment of bone hydatid disease. introduction bone is an uncommon site of involvement in hydatid disease; with the prevalence of 0.5-2% among bone lesions. case presentation in this...

Introduction: The aim was to investigate the protective effect of the Syzygium aromaticum extract on damaged tissues and the oxidative stress after testicular torsion. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into a control group subjected to a sham procedure and three treatment groups comprising testicular torsion followed by detorsion (TD), testicular torsion detorsion followed by the tre...

background : as recently some reported is investigated about relation between cold weather and testicular torsion (tt), so we decided to evaluate this hypothesis risk factor for testicular torsion in our children’s hospital. objectives : the aim of this study is to evaluate the relation between cold weather and testicular torsion in children. methods: from january 2011 todecember 2015 totally h...

abstract   background: tibial torsion is one of the torsion density which rotating in the longitudes axis of the leg. to measure this deformity, different methods such as radiographic or clinical methods were presented and introduced. methods: in this quasi-experimental study, 30 male athletes were selected randomly. their tibial torsion angle was measured using ct scan, lavand, lokomso, foot p...

the testicular torsion which is typically seen in prepuberty is very rare in the early neonatal period; prenatal diagnosis is difficult. herein, we report a five day-old male neonate with swelling and erythema of the right scrotum.  following doppler ultrasound suggestive of testicular torsion, surgical exploration was undertaken. there was gangrene of the right testis with discoloration and ne...

anandamide is an endogenous ligand for cannabinoid receptors and has endothelial protective effect against ischemic preconditioning. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of cannabinoids on reperfusion injury due to testicular torsion-detorsion (t/d). a total of 36 adult male sprague-dawley rats were divided into 6 groups. testicular ischemia was achieved by twisting the righ...
