Displaced humeral shaft fractures: Assessment of fracture union and complications following dual plate fixation using an anterior approach.

The humeral bone is subject to torsional forces. In case of displaced shaft fractures, internal fixation remains the standard of care. This retrospective two-center study assessed the fracture union rate and complications after dual 3.

Automation of Wilms' tumor segmentation by artificial intelligence.

Background: 3D reconstruction of Wilms' tumor provides several advantages but are not systematically performed because manual segmentation is extremely time-consuming. The objective of our study was to develop an artificial intelligence tool to automate the segmentation of tumors and kidneys in children.

Methods: A manual segmentation was carried out by two experts on 14 CT scans.

Trampoline injuries in children: A prospective study.

Background: Trampolining is popular and widely practiced among children. A literature review has shown a rise in the incidence of trampoline injuries with a concomitant increase in paediatric emergency department visits. The primary objective of this study was to describe the severity of trampoline injuries in children.

Comparison of interventions and outcomes of enhanced recovery after surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 2456 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis cases.

Purpose: The objective of this meta-analysis and systematic review is to compare the methodology and evaluate the efficacy of Enhanced recovery after Spine Surgery (ERAS) for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and to compare the outcomes with traditional discharge (TD) pathways.

Methods: Using major databases, a systematic search was performed. Studies comparing the implementation of ERAS or ERAS-like and TD pathways in patients with AIS were identified.

Implant-Related Complications Using Uniaxial Implants In Pediatric Spinal Deformity Surgery.

Introduction:  The successful surgical treatment of paediatric spinal deformity relies on robust anchors to achieve correction. Uniaxial pedicle screws are designed with articulation between the screw head and screw shaft, thus reducing the risk of anchor failure whilst permitting corrective manoeuvres. The purpose of this study was to describe the incidence, nature, and chronology of implant-related complications in pediatric spinal deformity treated with uniaxial pedicle screws.
