Interest in curves: when the radius of curvature matters in femur fractures. A CT based morphometric study.

Purpose: In today's era, fractures of the femur are primarily managed with intramedullary devices. Keeping in mind the anatomical sagittal bow of the femur, intramedullary devices have been devised with an anterior bow, but this varies amongst various manufacturers - leading to complications such as anterior cortex impingement beyond the isthmus and posterior cortical opening at the fracture site. We intend to find the average radius of curvature (ROC) of the anatomical bow of the femur and the variation of the same.

Femoral Shaft Fracture in Post-polio Syndrome Patients: Case Series from a Level-I Trauma Center and Review of Literature.

Background: Femoral shaft fracture in patients of post-polio syndrome (PPS) represents an uncommon yet complex injury pattern. Poorly developed soft-tissue envelope, decreased muscle bulk, reduced vascularity, regional osteopenia, joint contractures, and altered bony anatomy impose significant surgical challenges. Thorough pre-operative planning is imperative as each case requires individualized approach and method of fixation.
