carpal chip fractures are common causes of lameness in racehorses. due to disadvantages in surgical management, adjuvant treatment modalities are usually necessary. adipose-derived stem cells (adscs) have the potential to differentiate into other cell types including bone and cartilage cells. adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (svf) is produced during adscs isolation from adipose tissue....

OBJECTIVE To report treatment of a unilateral comminuted fourth carpal bone (C4) fracture associated with carpal instability by partial carpal arthrodesis (PCA) of the middle carpal joint (MCJ) and carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ). STUDY DESIGN Case Report. ANIMALS An 8-month-old Arabian filly. METHODS A C4 slab fracture was diagnosed radiographically; however, fracture comminution was conclu...

As per literature the immediate and late carpal tunnel syndrome in colles fracture and other wrist injuries is known but tardy carpal tunnel syndrome in fracture Scaphoid is rare. I am presenting a case of tardy carpal tunnel syndrome in patient with non-union fracture scaphoid with 40 years old injury.

OBJECTIVE We planned this study to evaluate the role of bone scintigraphy in patients with suspected carpal fracture and normal or suspicious radiographs following carpal injury. METHODS Three-phase bone scintigraphy using Tc-99m-MDP was performed on 32 patients with negative radiographs but clinically suspected fracture at two weeks after the trauma. Focally increased radiopharmaceutical upt...

carpal fracture-dislocation is regarded as an unusual orthopedic injury and, thus, orthopedic surgeons are less experienced in dealing with and treating these fractures and dislocations. we report a 20-year-old worker man suffering from an unusual carpal fracture-dislocation. there was trans-scaphoid fracture and lunate dislocation with other carpal proximal bones toward volar of the wrist. two...

BACKGROUND Carpal malalignment following the malunited distal radial fracture is described to develop as an adaptation to realign the hand to the malunion. It worsens gradually after healing of the fracture due to continued loading of the wrist. It is also reported to develop during the immobilization itself rather than after fracture healing. The present work was aimed to study the natural cou...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2015212133 DESCRIPTION A 50-year-old man fell on both outstretched hands, after jumping from a 2 m high fence. He supported his entire body weight on both palms. Immediately after the injury, he experienced mild pain, moderate limitation of movement and slight swelling of b...

We report the incidence of late onset post-operative carpal tunnel syndrome (late carpal tunnel syndrome) and late median nerve neuropathy after volar plating of distal radius fracture by conducting a retrospective study on volar plating for distal radius fracture performed during 2002 to 2006. Two hundred eighty-two volar plating were performed for acute distal radius fracture after exclusion....
