Orthopedic postoperative infection profile and antibiotic sensitivity of 2038 patients across 24 countries - Call for region and institution specific surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis.

Purpose: Improper utilization of surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis frequently leads to increased risks of morbidity and mortality.This study aims to understand the common causative organism of postoperative orthopedic infection and document the surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis protocol across various institutions in to order to strengthen surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis practice and provide higher-quality surgical care.

Methods: This multicentric multinational retrospective study, includes 24 countries from five different regions (Asia Pacific, South Eastern Africa, Western Africa, Latin America, and Middle East).

Simultaneous bilateral femoral fracture in children.

Introduction: Bilateral femoral fractures in children (BFFC) are an uncommon condition. Only a few cases were reported in the literature. The frequency and outcome in low-setting facilities are unknown.

Dual mobility total hip replacement: a 15-year experience in Burkina Faso.

To report our 15 years of experience in dual mobility total hip replacement (THR) in Burkina Faso through a Franco-Burkinabé relief organization. A retrospective study spanning from 2004 to 2018 was held in a private facility. All dual mobility THR cases with at least one year of follow-up time were included.

Reduction of Neglected Displaced Fractures of the Distal Femoral Physis.

Background: We performed open osteoclasis, soft-tissue release, and fracture fragment reduction and fixation to treat 10 cases of neglected physeal fractures of the distal aspect of the femur with severe deformity. To our knowledge, no specific surgical procedure for this problem has been reported in the literature.

Description: The procedure is typically performed through an extensile anterolateral approach.

[Total hip replacements in a country with limited resources: evaluation of medium-term results].

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) has been regularly performed in the public hospital in Bobo-Dioulasso since 2010. The objective of thisstudywas to assess the medium-termresults of total hip arthroplastyat the Bobo-Dioulasso UniversityHospital. Dioulasso.

Inguinal Lymph Node Dissection for Advanced Stages of Plantar Melanoma in a Low-Income Country.

Background: Advanced stages of plantar acral lentiginous melanoma are common in Africa. Inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND) in these cases plays a critical role in disease-free and overall survival. Our study aims to share our experience in ILND for advanced plantar melanomas.

Bilateral anterior shoulder dislocations: A review of two cases and the relevant literature.

The bilateral symmetric anterior shoulder dislocations (BSASD) must be suspected in patients with bilaterally flattened shoulders after an uncontrolled muscular contraction like seizure condition. BSASD is best managed acutely and challenging to manage when diagnosed late. Chronic BSASD, after two years in a young patient, can result in fair functions.

Darier and Ferrand's dermatofibrosarcoma: A carcinologic and cosmetologic challenge in a low-income country.

Introduction: Dermatofibrosarcoma (DFS) is a common dermic sarcoma. It is a local malignant tumor occurring in young adults. The recurrence potential justifies an R0-type surgery with a three centimeters margin.

Management of neglected distal femur epiphyseal fracture-separation.

Introduction: Neglected epiphyseal fracture-separations of the distal femur are rare. Still reported in developing countries, they lead to therapeutic issues. The objective of the study is to describe their characteristics and to propose treatment options.

Erecta dislocation of the shoulder joint-A rare injury: About four cases.

A nonresolving axillary nerve injury is a rare associated complication to an inferior dislocation of the shoulder joint. This worsen the midterm outcome of the shoulder. So, neurovascular status must be checked by regular clinical testing and by an electromyography in all cases of inferior dislocation of the shoulder joint.

Trauma related to falls from trees treated in a specialized trauma centre in Burkina-Faso-one hundred and six cases treated in one year.

Purpose: Falls from trees related traumas are rarely reported in literature. They are public health problems in developing countries where their frequency is still important. The aim of the study is to describe falls from trees related trauma patterns and to present preventative measures.
