Cesar David Hernandez-Lira, Carlos Alberto Carreon-Cerda, Antonio Alejandro Ortiz-Mendez and Mario José Lezama-Peniche

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/11/10

Charcot arthropathy of the spine is a process in which the stability of the spine is affected due to joint involvement, causing joint destruction, pain and deformity. The most frequently associated cause is trauma, conservative treatment is an option depending on the characteristics of each patient, and surgical treatment, if indicated, can represent a real challenge for the orthopedist due to the instrumentation techniques that are generally needed....

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/08/24

The first description of erect dislocation is considered to have been in 1859 by Middledorpf and his assistant Scharm. The clinical presentation of this type of shoulder dislocation is, with the arm in complete abduction, the elbow flexed and the forearm supported on or behind the head. It may be associated with multiple complications, including acromion fractures, coracoid or clavicle, rotator cuff injury as the most common and acute form with neurovascular injury....

Deep Wound Infection after Internal Fixation by Ankle Fracture Treated with Calcium Sulfate Beads Carrying Antibiotics: Case Report

Cesar David Hernández-Lira, Diego Rafael Gonzalez-Ramos, Mario José Lezama-Peniche and Víctor Manuel Alayon-Vazquez

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/07/15

It has been shown in the literature that ankle fractures account for about 10% to 15% of all fractures, and that about 20% of all ankle fractures will require an internal fixation determined directly by a syndesmosis injury. Reported complications range from 1% to 36.5%, including short-term soft tissue infections. It has also been shown that the application of calcium sulfate beads added with antibiotics as a local method in the bone reduces the risk of infection and biofilm formation in this i...

A Case Report of a Late, Unexpected Complication Following Internal Meniscal Suture Using All Inside Fast-Fix Technique

Rayan Fairag, Alexandre Rudel, Jean-François Gonzalez and Adil Douiri

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/04/14

Meniscal repair surgery is currently one of the most commonly performed orthopedic procedures. All-inside meniscal repair is simple and often sufficient for meniscal healing. Nevertheless, as with any other surgical technique, they are associated with complications that must be highlighted for better results and to avoid revisions for unjustified meniscectomies. To our knowledge, all inside anchors (FasT-Fix 360Ⓡ, Smith & Nephew, Inc., USA) pulling out and impinging on the deep fibers of the m...

Managing Severe Glenoid Defects during Revision Surgeries Following Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty Using Femoral Head Allograft: A Technical Note with Preliminary Findings

Saad Madi and Robert Hudek

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/02/29

This report details our experience and technique for addressing massive uncontained defects of the glenoid during revision in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. The glenoid reconstruction was performed in a two-stage approach, with the initial stage involving the removal of all implants and the grafting of allogenic femoral head bone into the glenoid defect. Following confirmation of bone block consolidation on a CT-scan, the second stage entailed the implantation of the glenoid base over the ...

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: 2024/01/14

Epidemiological studies suggest that proximal humerus fractures are very common, representing 4-10% of all fractures. This proportion is increased when surgical intervention cases are examined, as approximately 30% of proximal humerus fractures are treated surgically....

Protect Clavicle to Avoid Sports Associated Clavicle Fracture- Still Even Segmental Fracture Can Be Managed Well with Surgery in Today’s Era

Sharat Agarwal

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: March 08, 2023

Clavicle is an S-shaped subcutaneous bone which increases the band ring power of the shoulder. Clavicle fractures account for approximately 4% of all fractures. Fractures occur most commonly in the middle third of the bone (76-82%) and less often in the distal (12- 21%) and medial (3-6%) thirds. There appears to be a fairly uniform consensus regarding conservative management for medial third fractures and operative for displaced distal third fractures, however that for mid third clavicular fract...

Surgery for Lumbar Disc Herniation and Future Risk for Long-Term Sick Leave: A Two-Year Prospective Swedish Cohort Study of 5842 Patients of Working Age

Ted Eneqvist, Kristina Alexanderson and Lasse J Lapidus

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: January 22, 2023

Even if lumbar disc-herniation (LDH)-surgery is rather common, there is little knowledge on future sick leave. The aim of this study was to explore risk factors for having many sick-leave days following lumbar disc-herniation surgery. A prospective cohort study, using microdata linked from four nationwide Swedish registers was conducted. We included all patients in Sweden who, when aged 25-60 years, had a first LDH-surgery in 2007-2009 and at surgery date were not on disability pension for more ...

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: February 24, 2023

Osteoid osteoma of the foot can be difficult to diagnose, the clinical presentation may be mimicking other local pathologies leading to a considerable delay in diagnosis. We report an exceptional localization of osteoid osteoma in the second metatarsal in a 30-year-old patient, expressed for 3 years by metatarsalgia, with no clinical and radiological architecture defect of the foot. After discovering the nidus, the patient underwent surgical excision with an excellent outcome....
