Closed Reduction Followed by Percutaneous Fixation of Acute Femoral Neck Fractures in Young Adults: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Objectives: To evaluate the surgical outcomes of femoral neck fractures (FNF) in young adults treated with a closed reduction technique because it pertains to reduction quality, rates of union, and risk factors for complication.

Design: Retrospective cohort study with radiograph and electronic medical record review.

Setting: Level 1 Swiss Trauma Center.

Two-staged management of ankle fracture-dislocations with a posterior fragment: computer-tomography-based classification, treatment and its outcome.

Introduction: Trimalleolar fractures are difficult to treat and malreduction can lead to functional impairment. Involvement of the posterior malleolus has a poor predictive value. Current computed-tomography (CT)-based fracture classifications led to an increase in fixation of the posterior malleolus.

Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis for clavicle fractures.

Objective: Treatment of comminuted clavicle shaft fractures with minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO).

Indications: Multifragmentary (≥ 2 intermediate fragments) clavicle shaft fractures with no need for anatomical reduction (AO 15.2B and 15.

Osteosynthesis of scapular fractures: a retrospective cohort study.

Purpose: In recent years a trend from conservative to operative treatment of displaced scapula fractures has evolved. The aim of this study was to assess surgical and patient-based radiological and functional outcome after open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of displaced scapula fractures following predefined operative indications.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data of a consecutive series of patients with displaced scapula fractures following operative fixation at our institution between 06/2010 and 02/2020.

A case series of a rare tendon rupture.

The distal triceps tendon rupture is a rare finding. Only 1% of tendon ruptures are related to it. The triceps brachii muscle has three parts.
