Comparative Study of Exchange Nailing and Augmentative Plating for Treating Aseptic Nonunion of Femoral Shafts Post Intramedullary Nailing: A Single-Blind, Multicentric Randomized Clinical Trial.

: Aseptic nonunion of femoral shafts after intramedullary nailing (IMN) can be a challenging condition that may lead to long-term disability and the need for multiple surgical procedures. This study compared the clinical and radiological outcomes between exchange nailing and augmentative plating with bone grafting. : In this multicenter, prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial, patients with aseptic nonunion of the femoral shaft after IMN were randomly assigned to receive exchange nailing or augmentative plating.

Prenatal ultrasound detection of fetal amniotic band ingestion in monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy: a rare case report.

Background: Amniotic Band Syndrome (ABS) is a rare congenital condition characterized by the formation of fibrous bands within the amniotic sac that can entangle and restrict fetal development, leading to various deformities. In this report, we present an unprecedented case of fetal amniotic band ingestion in a monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancy. Reporting this case is essential for expanding the understanding of the diverse presentations of amniotic bands, considering this rare entity in the differential diagnosis of prenatal ultrasound findings, and emphasizing the importance of vigilant prenatal monitoring and individualized management strategies.
