Double right triangular shape full-thickness skin grafts technique for short rectangular or square shape donor site defect - original method with a case report.

Full-thickness skin grafts are essential tools for reconstructive surgery. Rectangular or square secondary defect usually occurs after performing a cross-finger flap or homodigital island flap. With the traditional fusiform ellipse design, trimming out excess graft tissue is necessary.

Radial head replacement with the 3D-printed patient-specific titanium prosthesis: Preliminary results of a multi-centric prospective study.

Purpose: To report preliminary clinical results and safety of 3D-printed patient-specific titanium radial head (RH) prosthesis in treatment of the irreparable RH fractures.

Material And Methods: This multi-centric prospective study included 10 patients (6 men and four women, mean age 41 years (range, 25-64 years)). Three cases were classified as Mason type III and 7 cases as type IV.

Triple suture fixation for displaced comminuted olecranon fracture with a stable ulnohumeral joint.

Purpose: To report the outcome of a novel fixation technique using three high-strength sutures which is including articular buttress suture, cerclage suture, and tension band with off-loading triceps suture (triple suture fixation) in the treatment of displaced comminuted olecranon fracture with a stable ulnohumeral joint (Mayo type IIB). The rationale of using this technique is that the sutures have been used to stabilize multiple fracture fragments in all sides of the olecranon.

Material And Methods: Between July 2018 and July 2021, 10 patients (7 women, 3 men; mean age, 49.

Anthropometric Study of Proximal Radius in Below-Average Height Thai Women and Its Correlation with Commercially Available Radial Head Prostheses.

Most radial head prostheses were designed in Western countries based on the anatomical characteristics of Western populations. We hypothesised that these prostheses are too large for below-average height Thai women. The objective of this study is to evaluate the anthropometric parameters of the proximal radius in such a population and its correlation with commercially available prostheses.

Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis for displaced midshaft clavicle fractures: An indirect reduction using joystick technique.

Background: A minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique has become increasingly popular in long bone fracture fixation as it could eliminate postoperative complications. However, the most challenging aspect of employing the MIPO for midshaft clavicle fractures among general orthopedic surgeons is the technically demanding that indirect reduction is typically a closed maneuver.

Methods: We present a consecutive series of patients with displaced midshaft clavicle fractures undergoing clavicular fixation using the MIPO technique between January 2017 and October 2019.
