Plantar Subluxation of First Metatarsal with Intercuneiform Dislocation: A Case Report of a New Type of Lisfranc Injury.

Lisfranc injuries result when the bones or ligaments that support the midfoot are torn, and the classifications of these injuries are based on the coronal displacement of the metatarsals. On the saggital plane, the first metatarsal is usually dorsally dislocated due to dorsal ligament weakness. We present a case report of a 29-year-old woman who sustained a Lisfranc injury of her right foot with plantar subluxation of the first metatarsal, which was treated with open reduction and internal fixation of the first metatarsal and fusion of the second metatarsal.

Operative treatment of complex intra-articular scapular fractures: long-term functional outcomes in a single-center study.

Background: Scapula fractures occur in the setting of high-energy trauma. Operative treatment of complex intra-articular scapular fractures can result in adequate surgical and functional outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-seven patients with complex, displaced intra-articular scapular fractures with or without involvement of the scapular body, were treated operatively in a single trauma center between 2010 and 2021.

Bilateral Femoral Neck Fracture Following an Epileptic Seizure in a Patient with Severe Vitamin D Deficiency: A Case Report.

Simultaneous bilateral femoral neck fractures represent a rare entity and are usually associated with bone metabolism disorders, chronic steroid treatment, epileptic convulsions, or high-energy trauma. Here we report a case of bilateral femoral neck fracture in a patient with severe vitamin D deficiency following an epileptic seizure. Anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the pelvis revealed Garden III femoral neck fractures on both hips.

Outcomes and Patient Safety in Overlapping vs. Nonoverlapping Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Introduction: Overlapping surgery is defined as two cases occurring in separate operating rooms (ORs), where the same attending surgeon conducts the critical surgical portions of each case at different times. Although it has been suggested that this established practice may improve the utilization of resources, allow for more opportunities to teach surgical trainees, and facilitate timely access to care, there is still no consensus on its use in elective orthopaedic surgery, such as total joint arthroplasty (TJA).

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature was done according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines to identify articles investigating the use of overlapping and single operating room TJA.

Functional and Surgical Outcomes After Endoprosthetic Reconstruction With Expandable Prostheses in Children: A Systematic Review.

Treatment of bone sarcomas in children is associated with wide tumor re-section and segmental reconstruction. The optimal surgical approach is still under debate in the literature. During the past decade, the application of expandable prostheses has gained remarkable attention because it improves patients' appearance and allows limb growth preventing leg length discrepancy.
