Importance of Herrings classification in predicting the outcome of aseptic necrosis of the femoral head.

Aim: To highlight the importance of values of the ​​Herring's classification in the treatment planning of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease (LCPD).

Does timing of surgery affect the outcome of open articular distal humerus fractures.

Background: Open intraarticular distal humerus fractures classified as Orthopaedic Trauma Association (OTA) 13 C may have devastating consequences for patient's quality of life, especially if leading arm in younger active patient is involved. We conducted a study to determine whether the timing of open reduction and internal fixation of open intraarticular distal humerus fractures affects the outcomes.

Patients And Methods: Multicentric prospective study: In the first group, there were 15 patients, 10 men and 5 women, mean age 38.

[Operative vs. non-operative treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture].

Introduction: It affects most frequently middle aged recreational male sportsmen (30-50 years old), previously followed by prodromal symptoms (5-33%). Rupture spot is 3 to 5 cm above heel bone vertex (90-95%) Retrospective study. WORKING OBJECTIVE: Comparison of functional re-.
