This study investigates the automated detection of enchondromas, benign cartilage tumors, from x-ray images using deep learning techniques. Enchondromas pose diagnostic challenges due to their potential for malignant transformation and overlapping radiographic features with other conditions. Leveraging a data set comprising 1645 x-ray images from 1173 patients, a deep-learning model implemented with Detectron2 achieved an accuracy of 0.

Materials And Methods: The radiological and clinical results of 100 patients operated on with closed reduction and percutaneous pinning for pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures in the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology were examined between January 2015 and February 2022. Clinical results were evaluated by performing cosmetic and functional scores defined by Flynn.
Introduction: The shoulder girdle comprises the scapula, clavicle, proximal humerus, and the soft tissues surrounding these structures. Bone and soft tissue tumors are notably more prevalent in the lower extremity than in the upper extremity. However, the shoulder ranks as the third most common site for primary tumors, following the hip-pelvis and knee.
