This study analyzes the incidence of subsequent hip fractures and its risk factors in the northwestern region of Korea. We analyzed hip fracture patients who visited any of the 5 teaching hospitals in the Bucheon and Incheon area from January 2000 to December 2010. Medical records were reviewed and presence of subsequent hip fractures, alcohol history, marital status, live in solitude, dementia, dizziness, American society of anesthesiologists score, osteoporosis treatment after fracture, body mass index (BMI) and initial bone mineral density were analyzed.

Materials And Methods: A prospective study was performed on 28 patients who underwent double bundle ACL reconstruction. Locations of each tunnel were determined using an anatomic coordinate axes method (ACAM).

Purpose: The purposes of this study were (1) to evaluate the foot rotational effects on local and whole leg alignment and (2) to confirm the correlation between local and whole leg alignment. The hypotheses of this study were that (1) the alignment would become varus if the rotation of the foot changes from internal to external rotation, and (2) there would be some correlation between local and whole leg radiographs, and local knee radiographs could then be used indirectly for the assessment of whole leg alignment in patients with bilateral medial compartment knee osteoarthritis.
Methods: A total of 80 lower limbs with genu varum of patients who complained of medial knee pain were examined.
