Sports-Related Musculoskeletal Injuries in Medical Students.

Background: Little attention is paid to the problem of sports-related injuries in amateur or nonathletes or recreational student athletes. We investigated the prevalence of sports-related musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries in medical students and attempted to identify the risk factors for these injuries.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire-based observational study on medical students of a tertiary care teaching hospital in central India.

A study of attributable variables impacting orthopedic trauma surgical training.

Purpose: In medical colleges, resident training programs must provide adequate surgical experiences, making them qualified at the end of residency program. It is generally believed that it would take more time for a surgical resident to perform surgical procedures than a board-certified surgeon. There is no current benchmark with regards to operative time and surgical cases involving orthopedic surgery residents.

Evaluation of modified Ponseti technique in treatment of complex clubfeet.

Background: Complex clubfoot does not respond to ponseti method. In 2006 Ponseti et al published the results of treatment of such complex club foot by modified ponseti technique, since then it has become standard method of treatment for complex clubfoot. There has been only few published result of this method and hence, here we are evaluating our experience with 16 patients (27 clubfeet) with complex clubfeet treated at our center by modified ponseti method.

Danger zone of radial nerve in Indian population - A cadaveric study.

Background: Identification of the radial nerve is necessary during surgery of the humerus fracture to avoid injury to it. Iatrogenic nerve injury during humerus fracture surgery is a well-known complication. Prevention of this type of injuries would be of great value.

A Long-Term Study of Application of Joshi's External Stabilizing System in Displaced Intra-articular Distal End Radius Fractures.

 Fractures of the distal end radius are a common upper extremity fracture. Intra-articular distal end radius fractures are recognized as very complex injuries with a variable prognosis. The aim of the study was to assess the long-term functional outcome of patients treated with Joshi's external stabilizing system (JESS) for displaced intra-articular distal end radius fractures.
