Current Concepts in Diagnosis and Management of Patients Undergoing Total Hip Replacement with Concurrent Disorders of Spinopelvic Anatomy: A Narrative Review.

Despite the high success rate of primary total hip replacement (THR), a significant early revision rate remains, which is largely attributed to instability and dislocations. Despite the implants being placed according to the safe zone philosophy of Lewinnek, occurrence of THR dislocation is not an uncommon complication. Large diagnostic and computational model studies have shown variability in patients' mobility based on the individual anatomic and functional relationship of the hip-pelvis-spine complex.

Long-term results of valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy for partial avascular necrosis of the femoral head after femoral neck fracture in adolescents.

Purpose: The study evaluates long-term results in patients treated by valgus intertrochanteric osteotomy (VITO) for partial avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) after fracture of the femoral neck in adolescent age. Although this method is mentioned in literature frequently, there are only few studies in the literature dealing with it in detail.

Methods: Authors evaluated five patients at the interval of 15 to 20 years following VITO.

Does Convergent Placement of Interlocking Iliosacral Screws into the Body of Vertebra S1 Prevent Screw Migration?

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY To compare the outcomes of parallel and convergent iliosacral screw insertion into the body of vertebra S1 in the treatment of posterior pelvic arch injuries. MATERIAL AND METHODS Radiographs of 120 patients (43 women, 77 men), aged between 14-79 years, treated with iliosacral screw fixation for posterior pelvic ring fractures between 1.1.

[Comparison of Clinical Outcomes of Displaced Diaphyseal Clavicle Fractures].

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the subjective evaluation of treatment by patients with respect to their return to work and recreational sport following the fracture of clavicle diaphysis with posttraumatic shortening of 1.5 cm, or more, treated non-operatively and surgically. MATERIAL AND METHODS Our group of patients consisted of 51 patients (14 females, 37 males) aged between 18 and 89 years (average age 46 years).

[Comparison of Hospital Preparedness to Deal with Crisis Situations in Mass Casualty Incidents According to the UN Human Development Index].

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This thesis presents the very current topic of general hospital preparedness to deal with crisis situations in mass casualty incidents. MATERIAL AND METHODS The key part of the work consists in a questionnaire survey of 26 foreign and domestic respondents, which provides a very good description of this issue in various countries of the world. The group is divided into health facilities in developed and developing countries of the world according to the UN Human Development Index.
