Animated video reduces pain and anxiety during pin removal in children with supracondylar humerus fractures: a randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: The aim of this study; is to determine the level of pain and anxiety experienced by pediatric patients with operated humeral supracondylar fractures during pin removal, and to investigate the effectiveness of animated video impressions.

Materials And Methods: This randomized controlled study included 180 patients aged between 4 and 12 years. The patients were divided into four groups: Group 1-control; Group 2-watched the introductory animation video before the procedure; Group 3-using analgesic before the procedure (ibuprofen 10 mg/kg); Group 4-watched the introductory animation video and used analgesic before the procedure.

Complications After Intramedullary Fixation Treatment of Patients With Osteogenesis Imperfecta: Telescopic Versus Non-Telescopic Implants.

Introduction The treatment of musculoskeletal pathologies in osteogenesis imperfecta aims to provide the maximum possible function by preventing bone fractures and progressive deformities. Despite the development of implants used in the surgical treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta, there is no consensus on the most appropriate method for the correction of skeletal deformities. The aim of this study was to compare telescopic and non-telescopic implants in terms of postoperative complications.

The Fate of Reoperation After Proximal Femur Fracture Surgery in Elderly Population.

Introduction: The overall complication rate after proximal femur fracture surgery is high. This study aims to define the reoperation reasons and outcomes of reoperations after proximal femur fracture surgery in elderly patients.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients over 75 years of age who underwent surgery for an intertrochanteric femur fracture and femoral neck fracture between 2014 and 2021.

Split Transfer of the Tibialis Anterior Tendon Combined With Calcaneocuboid Fusion vs Split Transfer of the Tibialis Anterior Tendon Alone to Treat Equinovarus Foot Deformity in Children With Cerebral Palsy.

Background: The study aimed to compare the outcomes of combined calcaneocuboid arthrodesis and split anterior tibialis tendon transfer (SPLATT) procedure to isolated SPLATT surgery for the treatment of the spastic equinovarus deformity in children with cerebral palsy (CCP).

Methods: Forty-one ambulatory CCP with 56 equinovarus feet, with positive flexor withdrawal reflex test results, were studied. The average age was 9.

Is immediate internal fixation safe in induced membrane technique?

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes of patients treated with induced membrane technique (IMT) for the reconstruction of bone defects and to identify factors associated with the success and failure of the modified technique.

Patients And Methods: Between January 2016 and April 2021, a total of 23 adult patients (20 males, 3 females; median age: 39.9 years; range, 20 to 69 years) who underwent bone reconstruction using the IMT for established pseudoarthrosis and acute bone loss were retrospectively analyzed.
