BENNETT'S FRACTURE: A NARRATIVE REVIEW OF CURRENT LITERATURE.
Georgian Med News
October 2024
Worthing Hospital, University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, United Kingdom.
Background: Bennett's fracture, a fracture-dislocation of the base of the first metacarpal, poses significant challenges due to the unique biomechanics of the thumb's carpometacarpal (CMC) joint. Effective management is critical to restoring thumb function and preventing long-term complications such as arthritis and instability.
Objective: This article provides a comprehensive overview of Bennett's fracture, including its mechanism of injury, diagnostic considerations, and management strategies, with a focus on conservative and surgical options.
Arthroscopic-Assisted Lateral Ulnar Collateral Ligament Reconstruction for Posterolateral Rotatory Instability of the Elbow: A Technical Note.

The lateral collateral ligament complex of the elbow is pivotal for maintaining the stability of the elbow joint. The open technique for reconstructing the lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) is a standard procedure to treat elbow instability caused by LUCL deficiency. Nevertheless, as arthroscopy procedures in the elbow have advanced, we describe an arthroscopic technique to reconstruct the LUCL with suture anchors and bone tunnel techniques.

Background: Patients with chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) can be managed with arthroscopic Broström repair and inferior extensor retinaculum augmentation or arthroscopic assisted lateral ligament reconstruction using ipsilateral semitendinosus autograft, with good functional outcomes in patients. It is unclear whether one offers better outcome that the other. This retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data compared the outcomes of repair and reconstruction.

Debate persists about the optimal surgical management of scapholunate dissociation. Many contemporary techniques address both the injured scapholunate ligament as well as the capsuloligamentous stabilizers necessary to prevent carpal instability and collapse. Here, we present a technique to reinforce or plicate the long radiolunate ligament, a critical stabilizer to the carpus.

Introduction: Tibial plateau fractures, which constitute approximately 1% of all fractures with an incidence of 10.3/100,000 annually, result from varus or valgus forces combined with axial loading in the knee. These fractures display a bimodal distribution, affecting younger individuals through high-velocity trauma and older individuals through low-energy trauma.
