Healing of Humerus Non-union Fracture Using Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein With Bone Graft Compared to Bone Graft Alone: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Non-union fractures of the humerus present significant challenges in orthopedic surgery, often requiring advanced treatments to achieve successful bone healing. The study aimed to compare the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP) with bone grafts versus bone grafts alone for treating humerus non-union fractures with regard to healing rate and complications. Six databases, PubMed, ScienceDirect, The Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, were searched for relevant literature using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and studies were selected according to the set eligibility criteria.

Endoscopic repair of nasal septal perforation with anterior ethmoidal artery flap using tunnel technique.

Purpose: Septal perforations (SPs) present a distinct challenge. There are many described surgical approaches with variable success rates. The goal of this study is to describe a new technique in repairing SP.

Congenital absence of the lateral meniscus: A case report.

Background: Congenital absence of the menisci is a rare anatomical variation characterized by the absence or underdevelopment of one or both menisci in the knee joint. The menisci are crucial in load distribution, joint stability, and shock absorption. Understanding the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of this condition is important for optimal patient care.

The incidence of adhesive capsulitis and COVID-19 pandemic effect.

Background: There are multiple pieces of evidence in the literature that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a pronounced effect on physiological health. There is little existing literature that has studied the pandemic's impact on adhesive capsulitis (AC) incidence. This study aimed to compare the incidence of primary AC before and during the pandemic.

Aneurysmal bone cyst of the clavicle: A case report.

Introduction: An aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a locally aggressive primary bone neoplasm. ABC of the clavicle is rare with only a few reported cases in the literature.

Presentation Of Case: We report the case of a 10-year-old boy who presented with an ABC at the right acromial end of the clavicle.

Open Trans-Scaphoid Transcapitate Perilunate Fracture-Dislocation: A Case Report.

Perilunate dislocations and fracture-dislocations are considered rare injuries. Perilunate injuries are frequently missed during primary evaluations. We report a case of a 37-year-old male presenting with an open perilunate fracture-dislocation a few days after experiencing trauma.

Seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness among health-care workers in Prince Sultan Military Medical City, Riyadh, KSA, 2018-2019.

: Healthcare Workers (HCWs) constitute a major group exposed to influenza. Researchers herein try to determine the influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE). Influenza VE depends on the vaccinated personal characteristics and the closeness of matching between the vaccine and the prevalent strains of the virus.

Innovative real CSF leak simulation model for rhinology training: human cadaveric design.

Objective: To study the feasibility of designing a human cadaveric simulation model of real CSF leak for rhinology training.

Method: The laboratory investigation took place at the surgical academic center of Prince Sultan Military Medical City between 2016 and 2017. Five heads of human cadaveric specimens were cannulated into the intradural space through two frontal bone holes.
