Management of femoral neck fracture non union with modified Pauwels' osteotomy.

Modified Pauwels' intertrochanteric osteotomy is a promising procedure to heal a non union of the femoral neck fracture, with a success rate of 80-90%. Caxa vara correction and limb length equalization can be achieved simultaneously with this procedure. Two stage surgical procedure has the advantage of keeping blood loss and bone exposure to minimise the risk of infection.

Check-Rein Technique for Management of Neglected Locked Posterior Shoulder Dislocations: Evaluation of Mid-term Outcome of a Novel Technique.

Neglected locked posterior shoulder dislocations, although rare, are quiet perplexing to manage. Various treatment methods have been explained for their management, but a consensus is still lacking. Besides describing a novel technique for the management of these lesions, this study aims to evaluate the mid-term outcome of this technique.

Clinicoradiologic Profile of Involvement and Healing in Tuberculosis of the Spine.

Background: There is no much information about how tuberculous lesions of the spine progress/heal; what clinical and radiological features suggest progression/healing; what is the optimal duration of antitubercular treatment; and what clinical, laboratory, and radiological investigations and their frequency should be done to monitor the disease course.

Aims: The present study aimed to evaluate what specific clinicoradiologic features suggest involvement and healing in tuberculosis of the spine.

Subjects And Methods: Fifty spinal tuberculosis patients (30 males and 20 females) diagnosed clinicoradiologically were enrolled in the study.

Modified Kocher-Langenbeck approach in combined surgical exposures for acetabular fractures management.

Background: Displaced fractures of the acetabulum are best treated with anatomical reduction and rigid internal fixation. Adequate visualization of some acetabular fracture types may necessitate extensile or combined anterior and posterior approaches. Simultaneous anterior iliofemoral and posterior Kocher-Langenbeck (K-L) exposures with two surgical teams have also been described.

Atraumatic Myositis Ossificans of Iliopsoas Excised through an ASIS Osteotomy: Case Report and Description of a Novel Technique.

With a well-established incidence of 15% to 20% following a spinal injury, the occurrence of neurogenic myositis ossificans of the hip is quite rare. The most widely accepted theory supporting its occurrence is the repeated microtrauma by forceful passive mobilization during rehabilitation. An extensive involvement around the hip is quite disabling to the patient.
