Pathologic fracture and hardware failure in femoral osteomyelitis: Case report.

Introduction: Pathologic fracture of the femur due to osteomyelitis has rarely been described. With limited evidence for treating osteomyelitis, the orthopaedic surgeon is presented with a difficult treatment decision at index presentation. Presented here is a case of failed conservative management, diagnostic dilemma, failed hardware stabilization, and definitive surgical treatment resulting in good clinical outcome.

Cast saw noise does not reach occupational hazard levels.

Background: The purpose of our study was to measure the sound level generated by selected commercially available cast saws. These levels were then compared with the level of everyday sounds and to accepted intensities by Safety Administrations to see whether the mandatory use of hearing protection should be recommended to prevent noise-induced hearing loss.

Methods: We assessed the sound levels generated by the Quiet Cast Removal System (QCR; OrthoPediatrics Corp.

Eversion during external rotation of the human cadaver foot produces high ankle sprains.

While high ankle sprains are often clinically ascribed to excessive external foot rotation, no experimental study documents isolated anterior tibiofibular ligament (ATiFL) injury under this loading. We hypothesized that external rotation of a highly everted foot would generate ATiFL injury, in contrast to deltoid ligament injury from external rotation of a neutral foot. Twelve (six pairs) male cadaveric lower extremity limbs underwent external foot rotation until gross failure.
