Clinical and Functional Outcomes of Peri-Implant Fractures Associated with Short Proximal Femur Nails: Prevention Strategies and Key Insights.

: Hip fractures are prevalent among the elderly and impose a significant burden on healthcare systems due to the associated high morbidity and costs. The increasing use of intramedullary nails for hip fracture fixation has inadvertently introduced risks; these implants can alter bone elasticity and create stress concentrations, leading to peri-implant fractures. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcomes of peri-implant hip fractures, evaluate the potential causes of such fractures, determine the type of treatment provided, assess the outcomes of said treatments, and establish possible improvement strategies.

Posterolateral Elbow Dislocation: An All-Arthroscopic Reconstruction of the Lateral Ulnar Collateral Ligament.

The elbow is one of the most commonly dislocated joints. Although simple dislocations of the elbow usually resolve with conservative management, certain patients can experience residual chronic instability. Posterolateral rotational instability accounts for approximately 80% of elbow chronic instability cases.

Assocation between trapezium size and failure of total trapeziometacarpal prosthesis. A survival analysis.

Aims: To assess the survival function of cementless total trapezium metacarpal prostheses (TTMPs) at 20 years, to compare survival functions by trapezium size, and to evaluate the association between the instantaneous risk of TTMP failure and small trapezium size using a multivariate Cox regression model.

Methods: This observational cohort study included 221 consecutive patients with a mean follow-up after TTMP of 137.3 months (maximum of 246 months).

Long-term recurrence of Dupuytren's disease treated with clostridium histolitycum collagenase. Surgical treatment and anatomopathological study.

Objective: To present the functional results obtained and the possible surgical difficulties after the surgical treatment of Dupuytren's disease (DD) recurrence in patients previously treated with Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) collagenase.

Materials And Methods: In this prospective study, 178 patients with DD were treated with CCH from 2011 to 2018; During long-term postoperative follow-up, 34 patients (19.1%) had recurrence of DD.
