Branching Out: A Retrospective Review of Tree Fall-Related Trauma.

Introduction Falls from trees (FFTs), although rare, represent a significant public health concern due to the severe consequences they can impose. Such incidents, while statistically uncommon across the wider population, have the potential to cause drastic, lasting alterations in patients' lives. The severity of these events is often substantial, highlighted by high Injury Severity Scores (ISSs) and prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS), which brings to light the urgent need for preventive strategies and heightened awareness.

Falls From Beds Among Elderly Outpatients: Injuries and Outcomes.

Introduction Falls from beds (FFBs) among outpatient elderly individuals are a prevalent issue, particularly for those aged 65 and above. This presents a notable health challenge with consequences that extend beyond personal well-being, placing a considerable strain on healthcare systems. Fall-related injuries often result in reduced independence, increased morbidity, and, in severe instances, fatalities.

Falls From Heights: A Retrospective Review of Roof Fall-Related Trauma.

Background Falls from roofs (FFRs), while constituting just a segment of all falls, pose a significant public health issue. They not only impact individuals in their daily lives but also pose an increased risk in the construction field. The consequences of these falls range broadly, from minor bruises to serious harm, potentially leading to chronic disability or fatality.

Azygos Vein Pseudoaneurysm After Trauma: A Case Report.

High-speed motor vehicle collisions (MVCs) often result in severe musculoskeletal, neurological, and vascular injuries. Among these, azygos vein pseudoaneurysms (AVPs) are a rare and potentially life-threatening vascular complication. Our case study highlights an instance of an AVP arising from a high-velocity MVC, underscoring their critical significance in trauma scenarios.
