Article Synopsis
- The dorsal approach to the wrist is tricky because there are many tendons and a special tissue covering the area.
- Dorsal plating for fixing wrist bones has become more popular because it helps target specific bone fragments.
- A new method is introduced that carefully cuts the covering tissue, making it easier to fix the bones without harming nearby soft tissues, leading to better recovery.
Diaphyseal forearm fractures are typically treated with open reduction and plate fixation, which has been proven to be the most effective method in numerous trials. However, the risk of periosteal stripping, haemorrhage evacuation, nonunion, and infection is always present and may cause a delayed union and other surgical consequences. Although intramedullary nails have been mentioned in the literature for forearm bone fractures, issues regarding their common complication of nail migration, especially of the ulnar fracture, before the fracture has been consolidated is an issue, and has not been addressed.

Materials And Methods: In this prospective study of sixty-two patients with humeral diaphyseal fractures in our institute (51 men, 11 women; mean age 42 years; range 20 to 73 years), fifty-nine fractures were closed and three were grade I open fractures. Three patients had a preoperative radial nerve palsy.
Introduction: Biomechanically proximal femoral nail (PFN) is a better choice of implant, still it is associated with screw breakage, cut out of screw through femoral head, Z effect, reverse Z effect, and lateral migration of screws. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of augmented PFN in terms of prevention of postoperative complications and failure rates in unstable trochanteric fractures.
Material And Methods: We carried out a prospective study of 82 cases with unstable trochanteric femoral fractures from April 2010 to December 2015.
