Functional Outcomes After Discectomy for Recurrent Lumbar Herniation Using the Destandau Endospine System: A Retrospective Study of 44 Patients.

Background Recurrent disc herniation is a major cause of morbidity and surgical failure after disc surgery. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of the Destandau endospine system (DES) for treating recurrent lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methodology A total of 44 patients who underwent minimally invasive Destandau endoscopic lumbar discectomy (DELD) for recurrent LDH were included in this study.

Osteofibrous Dysplasia of the Clavicle Managed with Intravenous Bisphosphonates: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Osteofibrous dysplasia is a fibro-osseous benign lesion of childhood and infancy that are commonly seen in the anterior shin of the tibia. Osteofibrous dysplasia in the clavicle is rare and in this study, we reported a case of osteofibrous dysplasia arising in the midshaft of the clavicle.

Case Report: An 11-year boy presented with complaints of pain and swelling over his left clavicle and was unable to do overhead abduction following a fall while playing 2 years back.

Functional and Radiological Outcome in Atypical Subtrochanteric Femur Fracture After Surgical Fixation: A Retrospective Observational Study.

Background: Treatment for osteoporosis can have catastrophic side effects, including the uncommon fracture known as an atypical femur fracture (AFF), which is related to the long-term usage of antiresorptive agents. Bisphosphonate therapy may lead to significant and chronic suppression of bone turnover, impairing the bone's remodelling property and finally leading to incomplete or complete atypical femur fracture. AFF was defined by the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) Task Force in 2010 and is far less prevalent than proximal femur (hip) fracture, with an incidence of 2 to 78 per 100,000 patients per year following two to eight years of bisphosphonate therapy, respectively.

Short-Term Functional Outcome and Satisfaction Rate of Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty in Indian Population: A Retrospective Study.

Introduction: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a procedure used to treat isolated medial or lateral compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee joint. This procedure involves retention of cruciate ligaments which leads to better functional outcome due to preservation of normal kinematics of the knee joint. In the Indian population, due to requirement of squatting and cross leg sitting habits, knee with more range of movement and with good kinematics is a required feature.

Outcome Analysis of Intra-Articular Scapula Fracture Fixation with Distal Radius Plate: A Multicenter Prospective Study.

Background: Scapula fractures occur in approximately 1% of all fractures and constitute about 3% - 5% of all injuries of the shoulder joint.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of 20 surgically treated patients with displaced glenoid fractures after stabilization with distal radius plate.

Methods: Between 2012 and 2015, at 2 centers (HMCH & SHCE) of Bhubaneswar Odisha, we stabilized 20 scapular intra-articular fractures surgically with distal radius locking plate and studied the outcome of the surgeries.
