Comparison of 2 different fixation techniques of comminuted acetabular quadrilateral surface fractures using square bracket-shaped tubular plate or interfragmentary screws in addition to supra/infrapectineal plate fixation: An observational study.

The management of comminuted quadrilateral fractures remains challenging, and treatment options are constantly evolving. The purpose of the present study was to examine the outcomes of 2 different fixation techniques in the management of comminuted quadrilateral fractures. Twenty-two patients with comminuted quadrilateral acetabular fractures were surgically treated with interfragmentary lag screw (group 1) and square bracket-shaped tubular (SBST) plate technique (group 2), in addition to suprapectineal and infrapectineal pelvic reconstruction plate fixation between January 2016 and July 2019 at our clinic.

Cross-leg flaps: A nonmicrosurgical alternative treatment method in complex lower extremity trauma reconstruction.

Objectives: This study aimed to present our experiences with cross-leg flap surgery, which demonstrates successful outcomes in lower limb soft tissue defects without the necessity of microsurgical intervention.

Patients And Methods: The retrospective study included 26 patients (18 males, 8 females; mean age: 35.6±12.

The Effect of Intraabdominal Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Volume and Muscle Volume on Lumbar Vertebrae Degeneration.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of the volume of subcutaneous, visceral, and total adipose tissue, and paravertebral muscles in patients with lumbar vertebrae degeneration (LVD) through computerized tomography (CT) images.

Materials And Methods: One forty-six patients with a complaint of lower back pain (LBP) between January 2019 and December 2021 were included in the study. CT scans of all patients were analyzed retrospectively for abdominal visceral, subcutaneous, and total fat volume, and also paraspinal muscle volume measurements and analysis of lumbar vertebrae degeneration (LVD) using designated software.

Fixation of bilateral acetabular fractures using the modified Stoppa approach: Two-year clinical outcomes.

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the two-year clinical results of bilateral acetabular fractures operated via a single incision with the modified Stoppa approach.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2013 and January 2020, a total of 22 acetabular fractures of 11 patients (7 males, 4 females; mean age: was 42.9±13.

A device that facilitates screwing at an appropriate angle in quadrilateral surface fractures: 105-degree drill attachment.

Background: Within this study, we aimed to investigate the radiological and functional outcomes of acetabular fractures involving quadrilateral surface using 105° drill attachment in the anterior intrapelvic approach.

Methods: The 35 patients who underwent surgical treatment from January 2016 and January 2020 for acetabular fractures involving quadrilateral surface with anterior intrapelvic approach using 105° drill attachment and a minimum of 12 months of postoperative follow-up were included. Perioperative complications, operation duration, and the quality of reduction were evaluated.

Subacromial impingement as a predictor of proximal biceps tendon disorders.

Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationship between proximal biceps tendon disorders and the degree of subacromial impingement in patients who underwent arthroscopic subacromial debridement.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2015 and June 2021, a total of 110 patients (44 males, 66 females; mean age: 52.5±11.

An Evaluation of the Fear of Falling, Balance Levels, and Prognostic Blood Parameters Among the Geriatric Population With Hip Fractures.

Background In this study, we determined that among patients who had been operated upon for hip fractures at our hospital, prognostic factors for mortality and functional recovery in the preoperative period were indicated via laboratory parameters using the International Falls Efficacy Scale (FES-I) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) scores. Methodology Between January 2020 and January 2021, the results of 64 patients who had been surgically treated for a hip fracture and 57 patients who had scheduled elective surgery were compared retrospectively. The groups' demographic data and blood parameters were compared.

Comparison of the Radiological and Functional Results of Tight Rope and Clavicular Hook Plate Technique in the Treatment of Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation.

Options for surgery for acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation vary considerably. This study aimed to examine the functional and radiological results of patients who were operated on using the tightrope (TR) or clavicular hook plate (CHP) technique in the treatment for AC joint dislocation. The data gathered from 35 consecutive patients who were operated on for AC joint dislocation were analyzed retrospectively in terms of their radiological and functional outcomes.
