Systematic Review of Acute Isolated Distal Radioulnar Joint Dislocation: Treatment Options.

: Acute isolated distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocations are rare and often misdiagnosed during initial evaluation due to subtle clinical presentation, low index of suspicion, and imaging barriers. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical to avoid chronic instability, limited wrist mobility, and osteoarthritis. This systematic review evaluates the functional outcomes of conservative and surgical treatment protocols for acute isolated DRUJ dislocations.

Acute Compartment Syndrome of the Hand Following Multiple Metacarpal Fractures: Current Concepts.

Metacarpal fractures are among the most common injuries seen in the emergency department, accounting for 17.2% of all adult fractures and more than 30% of all hand injuries. The majority of these cases are stable, and conservative treatment involving closed reduction and immobilization typically yields good clinical and functional outcomes.

Bizarre Parosteal Osteochondromatous Proliferation of the Hand: A Report of an Atypical Case and Current Concepts.

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP), or Nora's lesion, is an unusual, benign, bony lesion often found in the tubular small bones of the hand and foot. In general, two characteristic radiological signs are used to diagnose the lesion, namely, (1) the absence of corticomedullar continuity and (2) BPOP developed from the parosteal surface of bones with an intact underlying cortex. Here, we present an atypical case of Nora's lesion of the proximal phalanx of the index finger, in which BPOP was diagnosed only histologically, with preoperative imaging examinations (X-ray and MRI) suggesting another lesion (enchondroma).

Can Nondisplacement Osteoporotic Pubic Rami Fracture Be Life-Threatening Injuries? A Case Report, Overview, and Algorithm Protocol for Management.

Pubic rami fractures in the geriatric population are usually osteoporotic fractures resulting from low energy trauma and are characterized as stable injuries. Established treatment of these injuries is conservative, including rest, analgesic medication, and progressive active mobilization. These injuries are life-threatened when pubic rami fractures are accompanied by acute bleeding, either from an injury to a vessel (corona mortis) or from medication (anticoagulant or antiplatelet) for comorbidities, then.

The effect of an exercise-based rehabilitation programme in functional recovery and prevention of secondary falls after a hip fracture in older adults: A systematic review.

We performed a systematic review to evaluate whether an exercise-based intervention programme, for older people with a hip fracture, is effective in functional recovery and in preventing secondary fall-related injuries. This systematic review was conducted according to Cochrane review guidelines and based on the PRISMA statement. Six electronic databases (Medline, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CIHNAL, Embase, Google Scholar) from 2010 to 31 December 2021 were searched for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of functional recovery or fall prevention exercises after a hip fracture surgery in older people (≥65 years).
