FIXATION METHODS IN LATARJET: BIOMECHANICAL COMPARISON OF SCREW TYPES AND PLATE FIXATION.

Objective: Latarjet procedure is often preferred in recurrent shoulder dislocations accompanied by glenoid bone loss. It is observed that the superiority of bone graft fixation methods is still controversial. The aim of this study is to biomechanically compare the bone graft fixation methods in the Latarjet procedure.

Anatomical bone structure differences in patients with hemophilic arthropathy of the knee.

Objectives: The anatomical differences of the bony structure of the knee joint in patients with hemophilia were evaluated, and the results were compared with the knees of patients with primary gonarthrosis and no arthrosis.

Material And Methods: This study reviewed 41 knees in 21 patients (with an Arnold-Hilgartner classification of Stages 4 and 5 hemophilic arthropathy) who underwent total knee arthroplasty in single center. Two control groups including 21 asymptomatic patients (42 knees) and 21 primary knee osteoarthritis patients (42 knees) were formed to compare the measurements with hemophiliacs.

Effects of Collagen- and Arginine-Fortified Osteokine Supplementation on Fracture Healing.

Introduction Delayed union or nonunion is an important clinical challenge for orthopedic surgeons. In addition to the main treatment algorithms, the use of nutritional supplements is increasingly common. In this study, we investigated the effects of nutritional supplements fortified with arginine and collagen on fracture healing.

Repair Integrity and Functional Outcomes Between Knot-Tying and Knotless Suture-Bridge Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial.

Background: Knot-tying suture-bridge (SB) rotator cuff repair may compromise the vascularity of the repaired tendon, causing tendon strangulation and medial repair failure. The knotless SB repair technique has been proposed to overcome this possibility and decrease retear rates.

Purpose: To compare clinical and structural outcomes and retear patterns between the knot-tying and knotless SB techniques.

Simultaneous Metacarpophalangeal Dislocation and Carpometacarpal Fracture-Dislocation of the Ring Finger: A Case Report.

Introduction: Fracture-dislocations of the carpometacarpal (CMC) joints are pretty uncommon injuries with an incidence of 1%. A 17-year-old male was referred due to multiple traumas following a car accident with Glasgow Coma Score of 9.

Case Report: Simultaneous metacarpophalangeal dislocation and CMC fracture-dislocation of the ring finger were present in the 4th finger (ring finger) of the right hand.

Prevalence of femoroacetabular impingement and effect of training frequency on aetiology in paediatric football players.

Purpose:: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of asymptomatic radiographic findings of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in paediatric football players in different age groups and to investigate aetiological factors.

Methods:: Paediatric male athletes between 10 and 17 years of age from 8 soccer teams were recruited. In addition to an annual control check-up, anteroposterior pelvis and frog-leg radiographs as well as the curriculum vitae of the athletes, their injuries, and real-time complaints were recorded.

Prevalence of asymptomatic femoroacetabular impingement in Turkey; cross sectional study.

Objectives: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is one of the causes of hip pain in young-adult patients. The purpose of our study is to determine the prevalence of radiological FAI findings in asymptomatic population in Turkey.

Methods: Trauma patients aged 18-65 years who applied to the emergency service between September 2015 and September 2016 were retrospectively evaluated for this study.

A rare pathogen for subacute osteomyelitis in adolescent: Serratia marcescens.

Introduction: There are various pathogens reported for osteomyelitis. Osteomyelitis is bone infection which produces pain and fever, also threatens bone instability. It can lead to nonunion.
