Introduction: Proximal fifth metatarsal fractures are common. When using the Lawrence and Botte Classification for these injuries, they are classified as type 1, 2, and 3. Identifying the zone of injury is crucial to guide treatment. The authors hypothesize that interand intra-observer reliability of these fractures is low. Methods: Anteroposterior (AP), lateral, and oblique x-rays of 60 patients with isolated fifth metatarsal base fractures were reviewed. Five physicians evaluated the radiographs and classified the fractures as type 1,2, or 3. Each of the three radiographic views were examined separately. Results were then analyzed for inter- and intra-observer reliability. Results: Sixty …

Background: Flexor tenosynovitis and tendon rupture are rare, yet serious complications after treatment of a fractured distal radius with a volar plate. The highest incidents of rupture are associated with the plate on or distal to the watershed line of the radius. While studies have shown that reattachment of the pronator quadratus (PQ) following plating does not lead to improved measures in grip strength or range of motion, it may reduce the incidence of these complications. Reattachment of the PQ after a standard approach does not often capture the distal edge of the plate. We report results of a new …
Aspetic Nonunion Of Long Bones In Children: A Report Of Twelve Cases, Rami Khalifa, Amr Abdelgawad, Ahmed M. Thabet
Aspetic Nonunion Of Long Bones In Children: A Report Of Twelve Cases, Rami Khalifa, Amr Abdelgawad, Ahmed M. Thabet
Western Journal of Orthopaedics
Background: There are very few reports in the literature that directly address nonunion in children. The current study aimed to present a series of long bones nonunion in children following fractures and corrective osteotomies. Methods: This was a retrospective study that included pediatric patients diagnosed with nonunion following long bone fractures or corrective osteotomies. Patients with nonunion following femoral neck or lateral humeral condyle fractures were excluded. The clinical and radiological records were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Eight patients developed nonunion after fractures, while four patients had nonunion after corrective osteotomies. The mean age at the time of surgical procedure for …

Background: The Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) is a multiplanar external fixator with a computerized web-based program to provide accurate fractures reduction and deformity correction. This study aimed to evaluate our results after the treatment of complex lower extremity injuries with the external fixators including TSF. Methods: This retrospective case series included eight patients with complex lower extremity injuries treated with TSF. The medical records and radiographs were reviewed. The ASAMI score was used as an outcome measure. Statistical analysis used Microsoft Excel descriptive statistics. No inferential statistical tests were done owing to the small sample size. Results: The mean age …
