The most responsive foot position for non-invasive detection of isolated unstable syndesmotic injuries - a 3D analysis.

Background: The aim of this study was to identify the most responsive foot position for detection of isolated unstable syndesmotic injury.

Methods: Fourteen paired human cadaveric lower legs were positioned in a pressure-controlled radiolucent frame and loaded under 700 N. Computed tomography scans were performed in neutral position, 15° internal / external rotation, and 20° dorsal / plantar flexion of the foot before and after cutting all syndesmotic ligaments.

A successful management of Candy Cane syndrome post Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: a rare case report.

Introduction And Importance: Candy Cane syndrome (CCS) is a rare condition in which the proximal gastrojejunal attachment's afferent blind limb is elongated. This can lead to different symptoms, including nausea and vomiting, with less commonly described reflux and regurgitation symptoms.

Case Presentation: A 38-year-old female presented with a chronic complaint of postprandial pain, discomfort, and reflux lasting for about 2 years after a previous Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery.

A potential protective role of congenital peritoneal encapsulation coexisting with metastatic colon cancer: a rare case report.

Introduction And Importance: Congenital peritoneal encapsulation (CPE) is a rare condition in which the small intestine is encased within a mesothelial-lined sac. The following case is an extremely rare description of the co-existence of both colon cancer and peritoneal encapsulation, highlighting the potential role of this co-existence in preventing the spread of metastases and tumor implantation.

Case-presentation: A 60-year-old female was diagnosed with metastatic colon cancer.

Medial helical versus straight lateral plating of distal femoral fractures-a biomechanical comparative study.

Background: Distal femoral fractures are commonly treated with lateral straight plates. However, the lateral approach may not always be desirable, and 180°-helical plates may be an alternative.

Aim: To investigate the biomechanical competence of 180°-helical plating versus standard straight lateral plating of unstable fractures at the distal femur.

New generation of superior single plating vs. low-profile dual minifragment plating in diaphyseal clavicle fractures: a biomechanical comparative study.

Background: Recently, a new generation of superior clavicle plates was developed featuring the variable-angle locking technology for enhanced screw positioning and a less prominent and optimized plate-to-bone fit design. On the other hand, minifragment plates in dual plating mode have demonstrated promising clinical results. The aim of the current study was to compare the biomechanical competence of single superior plating using the new-generation plate vs.
