Ilizarov Fixator-Assisted Management of Neglected Femur Fractures by Open Intramedullary Nailing: A Case Series.

Unlabelled: Femoral shaft fractures are major life- and limb-threatening injuries. Such injuries, when neglected for months or years, can lead to a range of debilitating consequences. In the Indian subcontinent, there are multiple such cases that are presented to tertiary care hospitals late due to a lack of awareness and low socioeconomic constraints.

Management of Scaphoid Nonunion (SNU) With Ilizarov Ring Fixator Using Two Olive Wire Compression Without Bone Grafting: A Case Series.

Background: The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured bone among the carpal bones seen in orthopedic practice. The majority have good favorable prognosis, but some develop nonunion of fracture despite optimal treatment, which can lead to further complications if left untreated. It is recommended that displaced scaphoid nonunions (SNUs) should be reduced and fixed to prevent degenerative changes from occurring, even if they are asymptomatic.

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.

"Banana patella", fibrous dysplasia of patella: A rare case report.

Introduction: Patella is a very uncommon site for primary bone tumours and fibrous dysplasia lesion in patella has never been reported. Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibrosseous lesion of the bone where the fibrous connective tissue replaces the normal bone.

Case Report: We report a case of 23 years female with 7 years history of progressive swelling and anterior knee pain.
