Functional Outcomes of Tibia Fractures Treated With Intramedullary Interlocking Nails by Suprapatellar Approach: A Prospective Study.

Background Tibia fractures are the most common lower extremity fractures. The subcutaneous anatomy of this long bone predisposes it to high fracture frequency in a high-energy trauma. The tibia is a major weight-bearing, long tubular bone that is axially and rotationally unstable when fractured, which ideally necessitates its surgical fixation in adults.

Management of Open Tibial Diaphyseal Fractures by Limb Reconstruction System As Primary and Definitive Treatment: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Background One of the most frequent long bone fractures that most orthopaedic surgeons see is a tibial diaphyseal fracture. The tibia has more open fractures than any other major long bone because it is covered by skin for the majority of its length. The best course of therapy is still up for debate due to the high occurrence of comorbidities linked to these fractures.

Case Series - Osteochondromas at Rare Locations.

Introduction: Osteochondromas are very common. They are typically seen in long bones and rarely seen in smaller bones. Some of the rare presentations include flat bones, the body of pelvis, scapula, skull, and small bones of the hand and foot.

Groundwater fluoride contamination and its possible health implications in Indi taluk of Vijayapura District (Karnataka State), India.

Groundwater fluoride concentration and fluoride-related health problems were studied in twenty-two villages of Indi taluk of Vijayapura district, Karnataka, India. Present study (2015) was also used to compare groundwater fluoride concentration in same 22 villages with previous government report (2000). Groundwater fluoride concentrations of 62 bore wells of 22 villages were analyzed by using an ion-sensitive electrode.

Aneurysmal bone cyst of the pubis: a case report.

An aneurysmal bone cyst is considered as a locally aggressive benign tumour. Intra-lesional extended curettage and bone-grafting is the mainstay of the treatment for aneurysmal bone cysts. Grafting is used usually in cases where the lesion compromises the mechanical strength of the bone.

Giant cell tumor of lower end of tibia.

Introduction. Giant cell tumor of bones is an unusual neoplasm that accounts for 4% of all primary tumors of bone, and it represents about 10% of malignant primary bone tumors with its different grades from borderline to high grade malignancy. Case Report.
