Rib pathology is uniquely difficult and time-consuming for radiologists to diagnose. AI can reduce radiologist workload and serve as a tool to improve accurate diagnosis. To date, no reviews have been performed synthesizing identification of rib fracture data on AI and its diagnostic performance on X-ray and CT scans of rib fractures and its comparison to physicians.

Chryseobacterium indologenes is a rare human pathogen which is nowadays considered an emerging fearsome organism because of its upcoming antibiotic resistance. We present a quite unique case of a multi drug resistant C. indologenes surgical wound infection in a patient submitted to cannulated screw fixation of a displaced medial malleolus fracture.

The orthopaedic community frequently encounters polytrauma individuals with concomitant traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their fractures demonstrate accelerated fracture union, but the mechanisms remain far from clear. Animal and clinical studies demonstrate robust callus formation at the early healing process and expedited radiographical union. In humans, robust callus formation in TBI occurs independently of fracture fixation methods across multiple fracture sites.

Background: The outcome of a secondary subtalar arthrodesis after prior calcaneal fracture has been widely described. However, the surgical treatment has evolved significantly over the past decade, paralleling the shifts observed in primary repair strategies. Therefore, we describe the outcome following a secondary arthrodesis after an intra-articular calcaneal fracture, comparing the in situ (ISA) and bone block distraction arthrodesis (BBDA) techniques.

Tumor-induced osteomalacia is characterized by hypophosphatemia and fragility fractures caused by fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23)-producing tumors. We report a case of tumor-induced osteomalacia in which the tumor location could be determined by gallium 68 (Ga)-DOTATOC positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT). A 74-year-old woman had recurrent fractures and bone pain.
