Comparative Study for Surgical Treatment of Acute Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmotic Lesions Using the Modified Suture-Button Fixation Versus Static Syndesmotic Screw Fixation.

Introduction: Several techniques to treat acute distal tibiofibular instability are described consisting in static and dynamic fixation procedures. The aim of our work is to compare the outcomes of acute syndesmotic injury fixation between the modified technique of dynamic fixation using the suture-button principle as an efficient and low-cost method and the classic static fixation.

Methods: It is a prospective study including patients presenting with acute syndesmotic injury.

Surgical management of tibia refracture with a bent intramedullary nail: A case report and review of the literature.

Intramedullary nailing is the gold standard for long bone fractures in the lower limbs. Fractures of the tibia with bending of the intramedullary nail is a very uncommon complication. Removing a bent nail is an unpredictable and challenging procedure for any trauma surgeon.

Surgical management of neck of femur fractures in patients younger than sixty-five years: a comparative study of three fixation methods.

Purpose: Several surgical implants have been used for the treatment of neck of femur fracture (NOF) in younger patients such as dynamic hip screw (DHS) and cannulated compression screw. However, the superiority of one or another osteosynthesis device remains a matter of debate. The aim of this work is to evaluate and compare three fixation modalities: Cannulated Hip Screws (CHS), DHS and DHS associated to anti-rotating screw for surgical treatment of femoral neck fracture in young adults.

Unusual case of lateral subtalar joint dislocation associated with calcaneal fracture and lateral malleolus fracture.

Introduction: Subtalar dislocation is defined by a simultaneous total separation of the talocalcaneal and talonavicular joints. Lateral variety is the rarest. It is the result of a high energy trauma.

Comparison of the results of the synthesis of Schatzker II and III tibial plateau fractures by screwing versus plate.

Purpose: Lateral tibial plateau fractures with depression are the most common. Their treatment is currently surgical. Many therapeutic procedures have been described.
