37 patients had been reviewed after surgical (n = 25) or conservative (n = 12) treatment of condylar fractures. Morphologic and functional outcomes were equal in spite of the poorer starting position of the patients that had been operated on. Injuries and complications due to the operation, such as facial nerve palsy, growth inhibition or obvious scars have never been found. Conservatively treated and operated patients alike showed a moderate limitation of opening and mediotrusion on the fracture side, and both groups showed a flattening of the protrusion path.

What is the lower limb length discrepancy after arthroplasty for proximal femoral fracture? A prospective, multicenter observational study of 590 hips.
Orthop Traumatol Surg Res

Société Française de Chirurgie Orthopédique et Traumatologique, 56 rue Boissonade, 75014 Paris Cedex, France.
Introduction: Lower limb length discrepancy (LLD) following hip arthroplasty after proximal femoral fracture (PFFA) is little studied. The aim of this work was to answer the following questions: 1) What are the incidence and mean values of LLD after PFFA? 2) What are the clinical consequences (tolerance) of LLD after PFFA? 3) Can we identify risk factors for LLD after PFFA? 4) Is there a significant difference in terms of LLD after PFFA to treat intra- versus extra-capsular fractures?
Hypothesis: LLD after proximal femoral fracture arthroplasty is rare but has good clinical tolerance, given the low functional demands of the patients.
Patients And Methods: This is a multicenter prospective observational cohort study (15 centers), including 590 patients, operated on for hip arthroplasty for proximal femur fracture between May 2022 and June 2023.

In the setting of trauma, occurrence of intracapsular lipo-hemarthrosis is not uncommon, highly useful and well known imaging finding. Occurrence of extracapsular lipohaemarthrosis is uncommon and have been noticed around the large joints like knee, hip, and shoulder joints. Extracapsular lipohaemarthrosis is rare especially around small joints like wrist joint.

Objective: Total thyroidectomy constitutes one of the bread-and-butter procedures of surgeons all over the world. Like with any surgical procedure, complications form a part and parcel of the postoperative course in the hospital. Hypocalcemia represents one such prevalent complication post-total thyroidectomy.

Objective: To investigate the position of the anterior fracture line in AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type A2 unstable intertrochanteric fractures and its impact on the incidence of anterior cortical reduction loss after cephalomedullary nail fixation.
Methods: A clinical data of 95 patients with intertrochanteric fractures who met the selection criteria between April 2020 and February 2023 was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with cephalomedullary nail fixation, and the intra- and post-operative imaging data were complete.
Coblation versus BiZact extra-capsular tonsillectomy in adults: a randomized control trial.

Introduction: Tonsillectomy is a frequently performed otolaryngological procedure and is associated with significant postoperative pain and bleeding. A number of studies have investigated methods to reduce pain and bleeding. Coblation and BiZact devices have both been claimed to have favourable pain outcomes following tonsillectomy.
