Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the dorsal fixation technique with a cannulated compression screw (CCS) for transverse scaphoid neck fractures.
Methods: A case series study was carried out with patients treated with a CSS between April 2014 and May 2021. The main outcome was the healing of the fracture, verified by radiographic evaluation that used images of the wrist in anteroposterior, lateral, radial deviation, ulnar deviation and oblique views, obtained in the postoperative period.
Objective: To determine the efficacy of Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis protocol in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA), and to verify differences in the rates of this complication when comparing primary replacement surgeries with revision surgeries.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of patients operated between 2012 and 2018, with inclusion and non-inclusion criteria determined by the researchers. A protocol was created to compile data including 92 patients, amounting to 110 operated hips, divided by gender, age, laterality, among other criteria.
