This study aimed to analyse the treatment and outcomes of traumatic hip dislocation (THD) in children. Clinical data of children with THD were collected at our clinical centre from 1 June 2012 to 1 January 2023. Demographic data, injury mechanism, type of dislocation, combined injuries, reduction time, reduction method, and radiographs were analysed.

However, one of the most important complications was removal difficulty. In this study, we aim to analyse the factors which can influence ESIN removal in healed bone cysts in children.

Purpose: We aimed to find a correlation between the labrum shape and anterior-posterior (AP) pelvic measurements in children with DDH.
Aims: Medial humeral epicondyle fractures (MHEFs) are common elbow fractures in children. Open reduction should be performed in patients with MHEF who have entrapped intra-articular fragments as well as displacement. However, following open reduction, transposition of the ulnar nerve is disputed.

Bone tissue engineering offers a promising approach to treating these conditions effectively. Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) can commit mesenchymal stem cells to osteogenic lineage, and a knowledge of the underlying mechanisms may help advance the field of bone tissue engineering.

Objective: Concentric circle reduction is one of the outcomes after reduction of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Radiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to confirm the reduction results. In this study, we evaluated the reduction results of the coronal section of the hip using transgluteal ultrasonography.

Aims: This study aimed to clarify the benefits of ciprofol combined with alfentanil in bidirectional endoscopy (esophagogastroduodenoscopy followed by colonoscopy) to reduce adverse events and improve post-endoscopic recovery.
Purpose: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is an urgent, critical condition that requires immediate fasciotomy once diagnosed. Traditionally, fasciotomy of the forearms and lower leg involves one or two long approaches. Our previous study demonstrated that mini approaches fasciotomy was an effective method to treat ACS.

Study Design: The clinical data of nine children diagnosed with osteomyelitis and DVT between July 2012 and March 2021 were collected at our hospital, including age, sex, clinical manifestations, body temperature, coagulation function and other data, as well as the clinical data of 27 children diagnosed with osteomyelitis without DVT during the same period. Thirty-six children were divided into thrombus and thrombus-free groups.

Background: Calcium gluconate is widely used to treat neonatal hypocalcemia, severe hyperkalemia, and convulsions. However, extravasation of calcium gluconate can lead to iatrogenic calcinosis, causing symptoms such as local redness and swelling, cutaneous plaque, soft tissue calcification, and cutaneous tissue necrosis. Therefore, this study retrospectively analyzed the conservative treatment results of neonatal iatrogenic calcinosis.

The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of MR-enhanced high-resolution three-dimensional water-selective cartilage (3D-WATSc) sequence in visualizing the vessels of the hip joint in children.
Patients And Methods: Children with hip disease were randomly enrolled prospectively at our hospital from January 2021 to August 2022.

Objectives: This study assessed the feasibility of open surgery and determined outcome predictors for late management of epiphyseal plate fracture of the distal radius in children.
Methods: This retrospective study included 25 patients (22 male, 3 female) who underwent open surgery for late management of epiphyseal plate fracture of the distal radius. Wrist function was evaluated on Cooney score.

Background: Elbow fractures are common in children. While Kirschner wire (K-wire) is the most commonly used fixation material in children, medial entry pins may be needed for fracture stability. This study aimed to assess ulnar nerve instability by ultrasonography in children.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: In children aged 3-5 years, femoral fractures are common and are frequently treated using flexible intramedullary nails (FIN) or spica casting. Recently, more surgeons have been relying on FIN surgery because of the high rate of complications associated with spica casts, such as skin irritation and re-adjustment surgery. We aimed to evaluate the effect of skin traction combined with braces in 3-5 years old children at our hospital.

The osteoblastic potential of BMP9 needs to be further increased to overcome its shortcomings. However, the details of how BMP9 triggers osteogenic differentiation in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are unclear.

In this study, we describe a novel corrective technique by applying the principles described by Paley involving lateral osteotomy using Kirschner wires (K-wires).

The biggest limitation of the elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN) fixation method is the diameter of the medullary canal. This study aimed to measure the medullary canal diameters of the radius and ulna at different ages in children.
