Purpose: To identify fracture characteristics and zones of comminution as well as the relationship with anatomic landmarks and rotator cuff footprint involvement in OTA/AO 11C3-type proximal humerus fractures.

Methods: Computed tomography images of 201 OTA/AO 11C3 fractures were included. Fracture lines were superimposed to a 3D proximal humerus template, created from a healthy right humerus, after fracture fragment reduction on 3D reconstruction images.

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the demographic, clinical, and surgical characteristics of patients who underwent revision hip replacement surgery and those who underwent re-revision surgery. The secondary outcome is the investigation of the factors that play a role in estimating the time between primary arthroplasty surgery and revision surgery.

Patients And Methods: The patients who underwent revision hip arthroplasty in our clinic between 2010- 2020, patients with at least 2 years of follow-up, and who underwent re-revision surgery if needed were included.

Background: Sacral fractures are uncommon and understanding three-dimensional morphology is needed to obtain proper treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify the repeatable fracture patterns and comminution zones for traumatic sacral fractures and create fracture maps.

Methods: Computerized tomography images of 72 patients with traumatic sacral fracture were included in the study.

Background: The aim of this study is to examine the preoperative and postoperative forearm compartment pressures in patients treated operatively for Gartland type III extension type supracondyler humerus fractures and understand the course of these values over postoperative period.

Methods: Deep volar compartment pressure of 31 patients were measured in the proximal one third of the forearm preoperatively, and measurements were continued every 4 hours for the first 24 hours after the operation with a catheter. Type of the reduction technique (open reduction vs.

Backround: Optimal postoperative management is controversial after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR).

Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate outcomes of patients with and without postoperative sling immobilization after undergoing arthroscopic RCR rotator cuff repair.

Method: 369 arthroscopic full thickness superior rotator cuff tears (RCT) with a minimum follow-up of 6 months were included in this study.
