Thoracolumbar Vertebral Injuries with Neurological Deficit Treated with Posterior Decompression, Short Segment Pedicle Screw Fixation, and Interlaminar Fusion.

Study Design: Prospective clinical study.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of interlaminar fusion and short segment pedicle screw fixation on thoracolumbar vertebral injuries for preventing pain and post-traumatic kyphosis.

Overview Of Literature: The treatment of thoracolumbar injuries continues to be one of the most controversial areas in spine care.

A Closed Lateral Subtalar Dislocation With Checkrein Deformity of Great Toe due to Entrapment of Flexor Hallucis Longus: A Case Report.

Tubercular arthritis of the elbow joint following olecranon fracture fixation and the role of TGF-beta in its pathogenesis.

Tuberculosis (TB) occurring after a closed bone fracture in the patient with no history of TB and no evidence of TB infection at the time of initial fracture is a rare entity. We report one such case of a 48-year-old female, who presented in the emergency department with an olecranon fracture which was open reduced and internally fixed with tension band wiring.
