Arthroscopy-assisted procedure provides less residual horizontal instability and optimal coracoid tunnel creation with less radiation exposure compared to percutaneous procedure after endo-button fixation of type III AC joint dislocations.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative radiological and functional results of patients treated with arthroscopy-assisted (AA) and percutaneous (P) procedures using endo-button for type III acromioclavicular joint dislocations with a minimum 1-year follow-up. The study hypothesis was that the AA technique would provide more favourable coracoid tunnels.

Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent surgery between 2017 and 2022.

Patellar Lateralization, Absence of Joint Hypermobility, and the Mechanism of Injury Are Associated With Osteochondral Fracture After First-time Acute Lateral Patellar Dislocation in Adolescents: An MRI-based Evaluation.

Background: Although the risk factors for patellofemoral dislocation are clearly defined, risk factors for osteochondral fracture (OCF) after patellar dislocation are not as well defined. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for OCF by evaluating patients with and without OCF after first-time acute patellar dislocation.

Methods: This multicenter study was conducted as a retrospective examination of the radiologic measurements on the magnetic resonance imaging of 306 patients.

E-scooter-related orthopedic injuries and the treatments applied: are these scooters a new means of transportation or a new source of trauma?

Introduction: E-scooters have become increasingly popular in Turkey due to easy accessibility. In parallel with this, the number of e-scooter-related injuries has increased gradually. The aim of this study was to determine the types of e-scooter-related orthopedic injuries, to evaluate hospitalization and surgical treatments, and to investigate the loss of work of patients and the burden incurred by the healthcare system.

Does radiation exposure during pediatric supracondylar humeral fracture surgery change according to the C-arm position? A comparison of two different techniques.

Introduction: In the surgical treatment of supracondylar humeral fractures (SHF), the surgeon has to stand right next to the fluoroscopy device, so it is very important to know how to use it in the most appropriate way to reduce radiation exposure. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using C-arm in uniplanar (inverted) and biplanar (standard-horizontal) configurations on (1) the radiation exposure to the surgeon, and (2) surgical time and fluoroscopy exposure time.

Material And Methods: This prospective randomised study was conducted on 20 patients who underwent fluoroscopy during closed reduction and percutaneous pinning for a SHF.
