Treatment of grade 3B open tibia fracture by segmental resection and bone transport: A case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Open tibial fractures represent the most prevalent type of open long bone fracture, constituting 13.7 % of all open fractures, typically resulting from road traffic accidents and falls from a standing position. The AO Trauma Foundation has developed comprehensive treatment procedures that encompass wound irrigation and debridement, fracture stabilization, and either delayed primary wound closure or early flap coverage.

Successful megaprosthesis in a nearly amputated lower extremity after crush injury: A case report and literature review.

Crush injury is one of the most challenging decisions for a surgeon to decide whether to proceed with an amputation or salvage a limb. We presented a 24-year-old man who complained of having suffered a crushed thigh 12 h before admission to the hospital. The patient was driving a truck and hit the iron bridge barrier, which penetrated his left thigh.

Combination of frozen autograft produced with liquid nitrogen and total hip replacement as a bone recycle reconstruction in pelvic osteosarcoma resection type 2: A case report.

Introduction: Pelvic osteosarcoma remains a challenge for orthopedic surgeons to manage. However, recent advances giving various options to get a more effective reconstruction method. We present bone recycle reconstruction using a combination of frozen autograft and total hip replacement (THR) following extraarticular resection type II of pelvic osteosarcoma.

Necrosis in the flexor hallucis longus muscle after subclinical leg compartment syndrome and tibial fracture: A case report.

Introduction: Compartment syndrome is a condition in which an increased pressure within one compartment results in decreased blood flow, preventing nutrition and blood supply from reaching nerve and muscle cells. Ongoing physiological cascades can progress to local and systemic manifestations. This article presents a case of subclinical compartment syndrome resulting in muscle necrosis and contracture.
