We present a case of a patient who sustained a distal radius fracture and underwent volar plate fixation. Despite initial non-operative management, subsequent corrective osteotomy was required due to malunion. Eighteen months later, the patient presented with an inability to extend the thumb, leading to a diagnosis of extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon rupture.

Spinal cord injuries, including rare cases without radiological abnormalities, pose diagnostic challenges, particularly in cases of delayed neurological deficit development. This case report describes a 55-year-old man with a stable L1 burst fracture who developed delayed neurological deficits two weeks after sustaining a fall despite no evidence of intrinsic or extrinsic spinal cord abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient initially presented with back pain, normal muscle strength across all myotomes, and imaging that showed no canal stenosis or retropulsion fragments.

Background: This video article describes the use of bone-anchored prostheses for patients with transtibial amputations, most often resulting from trauma, infection, or dysvascular disease. Large studies have shown that about half of all patients with a socket-suspended artificial limb experience limited mobility and limited prosthesis use because of socket-related problems. These problems occur at the socket-residual limb interface as a result of a painful and unstable connection, leading to an asymmetrical gait and subsequent pelvic and back pain.

Unlabelled: The treatment of orthopaedic diseases, such as fractures and osteoarthritis, remains a significant challenge due to the complex requirements for mechanical strength and tissue repair. Hydrogels based on hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA) show promise as tissue engineering materials for these conditions. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural component of the extracellular matrix, known for its good compatibility.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of a polyaxial locking plate utilizing locking-cap fixation for treatment of patients with displaced olecranon fractures.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed for all consecutive patients at two institutions with displaced olecranon fractures treated with a polyaxial locking plate. Patients were required to have at least 1-year follow up.
