Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing in Length Stable Versus Unstable Pediatric Femoral Shaft Fractures: A Comparison of Clinical, Radiographic, and Pedobarographic Outcomes.

Background: Pediatric diaphyseal femoral fracture (PDFF) is one of the most common injuries requiring hospitalization. Elastic stable intramedullary nailing (ESIN) is commonly used for PDFFs in ages 5 to 11. The optimal treatment method for length unstable PDFF is a subject of ongoing debate.

Fracture Patterns and Mortality in Osteopetrosis: A 7-year Retrospective Analysis from Türkiye's National Registry.

Background: The aim of this study is to determine the demographic data, fracture treatment methods, and medical treatments of patients diagnosed with osteopetrosis in the national registry.

Methods: Patients with International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 code Q78.2 for osteopetrosis between January 1, 2016 and April 11, 2023 were retrospectively reviewed.

Retinal vascular density change in patients with heart failure.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to assess choroid thickness, retinal vessel density in the superficial capillary plexus layer and deep capillary plexus layer in heart failure (HF) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).

Methods: 36 healthy participants (group 1), 33 patients with HF were assessed for this study. HF patients had a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50%.

Shaken baby syndrome in an infant treated for retinopathy of prematurity with anti-VEGF injection.

We present the case of an infant who received bevacizumab treatment for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and developed retinal hemorrhages 12 weeks later. Although preretinal hemorrhages along the ROP's ridge were a concern for recurrence, we decided to investigate other etiologies because of numerous retinal hemorrhages in different retinal layers and their concentration in the posterior pole. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed a new-onset subdural hemorrhage.
