CT Morphometric Analysis of the Medial Femoral Condyle in an Indian Population: A Comparative Study of Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty Implants.

Purpose The objective of this study was to evaluate the compatibility of the medial femoral condyle (MFC) dimensions in the Indian population with the standard femoral components of three commercially available unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) implants. Methods This analytical study utilized CT morphometric data from 100 consecutive non-arthritic adult knees. MFC dimensions were measured to assess their compatibility with UKA prostheses.

A Rare Case of Posterior Dislocation of Hinge Knee Prosthesis due to Wear of Anti-Luxation Device: A Case Report.

Introduction: Hinge knee joint prosthesis are utilized in a variety of surgical scenarios, including complex primary, revision, salvage surgeries, and radical resection of tumor's. Link's Endo-model Hinged Knee Prosthesis is a newer design that includes ramped tibial components for controlled pivot point motion during flexion and an anti-dislocation feature to prevent prosthesis dislocation..

A rare case of extensive neurogenic heterotopic ossification: a case report.

Introduction: Neurogenic Heterotopic ossification (NHO) is a potential sequalae and a detrimental complication following neurological insult. It is characterized by formation of localized gradually progressive, peri-articular lamellar bone formation in extra-skeletal tissues. We would like to report a rare case of heterotopic ossification involving all 4 limbs, in which we tried to restore joint mobility to improve his functional status so that he could perform his daily tasks.

Unusual Mechanism of Injury during a Wedding Tradition Leading to a Metacarpal Shaft Fracture - A Case Report.

Introduction: "Joota Chori" is a traditional Indian wedding ritual which involves playful competition between the bride's and the groom's friends, with the aim of hiding and retrieving the groom's shoes.

Case Report: We describe a rare case scenario wherein an orthopedic surgeon sustained a metacarpal shaft fracture while gripping the shoe and engaging in a tussle with the groom's friends. Despite feeling a sudden snap and experiencing pain, the surgeon held onto the shoe.

Intraosseous Retrieval of Broken Guide Wire while Fixing Proximal Femur Fractures - A Report of 2 Cases and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Hardware breakage during surgery is a known risk that may result in serious complications. Drill bits and guide wires are particularly prone to breakage, and if not promptly recognized and removed, can cause damage to intrapelvic structures, or may lead to hip arthritis later. Herein, we present two cases in which broken guide wire fragments were safely retrieved through the same incision, resulting in good outcomes and reduced morbidity.

Intraprosthetic Dislocation of Dual Mobility Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: First introduced in Europe in the 1970s, dual mobility total hip arthroplasty (DM-THA) has gained popularity over years due to the reduced dislocation rates compared to standard THA. However, intraprosthetic dislocation (IPD), a rare complication where the femoral head separates from the polyethylene (PE) liner, remains a potential complication.

Case Report: A 67-year-old female presented with a transcervical neck of femur fracture.

Femoral Head Fracture Without Associated Hip Dislocation.

We present a rare case of femoral head indentation fracture without associated hip dislocation in an elderly female secondary to a low-energy trauma. She was managed with primary total hip arthroplasty and achieved an excellent functional outcome. We have proposed the mechanism of injury and discussed shortcomings in the present classification systems.

Intraoperative Diagnosis of a Rare Case of Arthropathy - A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Alkaptonuria is a rare metabolic disorder of autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance caused due to homogentisic acid oxidase enzyme deficiency. As a result, polymers of homogentisic acid get deposited in excessive amounts in the connective tissues, leading to brownish-black pigmentation termed as ochronosis. As the disease progresses, chronic inflammation results in arthritis of large weight-bearing joints.

Bilateral Transcervical Femur Neck Fracture in a Case of Pseudohypoparathyroidism: A Rare Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is an uncommon metabolic bone disorder characterized by biochemical hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia and raised parathyroid hormone (PTH), and target tissue unresponsiveness to the biological actions of PTH. In addition, many patients with PHP exhibit a distinctive constellation of developmental and skeletal defects.

Case Report: An 11-year-old girl was brought to emergency pediatric department for the assessment of fever with generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS) with inability to walk.

Outcome Analysis of Anterior Reconstruction with Rib Grafts in Tuberculosis of the Thoracic Spine.

Introduction: Tricortical iliac bone is the gold standard as an autograft for the reconstruction of the anterior column in tuberculosis (TB) of the thoracic spine. However, the quantity of graft needed is significant. It creates a considerable defect in the pelvic bone, causing graft site complications, including pain, pelvic instability, fractured ilium, herniated muscle, or abdominal contents.
