- Advances in implants and biological therapies have improved trauma care, especially for complex cases like Schatzker type V tibial plateau fractures.
- This study evaluates three patients treated with open reduction and internal fixation plus tricalcium phosphate bone void filler, assessing outcomes through various scoring systems.
- Results showed high patient satisfaction and low pain levels, with good range of motion and no significant complications, indicating that tricalcium phosphate may enhance recovery by supporting healing and integration.
Subungual exostosis is a rare benign osteocartilaginous tumor, of unknown etiology, that affects the subungual part of the distal phalanx and predominantly affects adolescent females. The objective of this study is to evaluate the results of surgical treatment of subungual exostosis in pediatric patients by means of surgical excision and nail preservation. We present a retrospective study, including pediatric patients with subungual exostosis who underwent surgical treatment in a single institution, over a 6-year period, We describe the surgical technique used, the characteristics of the patients and lesions, and evaluate the results obtained in terms of function, satisfaction and complications.
