Distal Radius Plates With Coracoid Suture Anchors for the Fixation of Displaced Lateral End Clavicle Fractures.

Introduction Management of displaced fractures of the lateral end clavicle has always challenged orthopaedic surgeons, due to a high non-union rate, and difficulty achieving stable fixation allowing early mobilisation. Different methods of fixation have been utilised to provide stability and improve healing and functional outcomes. In this series, we evaluate the results of internal fixation using dorsal distal radius locking plates and coracoid suture anchors.

Carpal Tunnel Decompression Under Wide Awake Local Anaesthesia No Tourniquet Technique (WALANT): A Cost Effective and Outcome Analysis.

Introduction Wide-awake local anaesthesia with no tourniquet (WALANT) technique is cost-effective, resource-friendly, and safe. This can be used as an alternative to hand surgery procedures in outpatient units. It can be performed in clinics or operating rooms.

A Rare Presentation of Dual Ovarian Pathologies: Small Cell Carcinoma of the Ovary and Mucinous Ovarian Cancer.

The small cell carcinoma of ovaries co-occurring with mucinous ovarian cancer is a rare event. We report a 21-years-old lady with a composite tumour comprising small cell carcinoma and mucinous carcinoma of ovaries. The incidental finding of the left ovarian cyst led to further workup and revealed a solid cystic mass in the left adnexal area pathologically proven to be mucinous ovarian carcinoma.

Simultaneous Triquetrum, Lunate, and Capitate Interosseous Ganglion Cysts.

Introduction: Intraosseous carpus ganglion cysts are very rare causes of hand and wrist pain. Isolated cases of lunate, scaphoid, pisiform, hamate, triquetrum, capitate, metacarpal, and phalanx cysts have no report of more than two carpal cysts, according to our knowledge.

Case Report: A case of simultaneous triquetrum, lunate, and capitate intraosseous ganglion cysts is presented.

The role of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of occult scaphoid fractures.

Ultrasonography is widely utilized by emergency physicians and radiologists to diagnose various orthopaedic diseases, including fractures. We aim to derive a definitive estimate of the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in clinically suspected scaphoid fractures. We undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis of included diagnostic cohort studies that discussed the use of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of occult scaphoid fractures.

Tuberosity healing after reverse shoulder arthroplasty for complex proximal humeral fractures in elderly patients-does it improve outcomes? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is being increasingly used for complex, displaced fractures of the proximal humerus in older patients. Anatomic tuberosity healing in RSA has been recognized to restore better shoulder function. We compared the reported clinical and functional outcomes of RSA in proximal humeral fractures with and without tuberosity healing.

The use of Tranexamic Acid in Total Elbow Replacement to Reduce Post-Operative Wound Infection.

Incidence of infection following total elbow replacement (TER) is recognised to be higher compared to hip or knee arthroplasty. Extensive swelling following TER can complicate the wound healing which might lead to infection. Tranexamic Acid (TXA) is proven to reduce blood loss peri-operatively which might contribute to better healing outcomes.
