Arthroscopy of the first carpometacarpal (CMC) joint has become routine. Similar techniques can be applied to fracture dislocations involving the fifth CMC joint. This situation is one whereby arthroscopy is definitely of benefit, because the articular fracture fragment is often volar, and difficult to visualize and reduce from a dorsal approach. This article describes arthroscopic techniques for reduction and percutaneous fixation of fifth CMC fracture dislocations.

Proximal humerus fracture dislocations: outcomes of management.
ANZ J Surg
January 2025
School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Purpose: Proximal humerus fracture dislocations are amongst the most severe proximal humerus injuries, presenting a challenging management problem. The aim of this study was to report on long-term outcomes of management of proximal humerus fracture dislocations.
Methods: Patients with a proximal humerus fracture dislocation managed at a Level 1 trauma centre from January 2010 to December 2018 were included.
Osteochondral Fractures in Adolescents With First-time Patellar Dislocation: Three-dimensional Characterization and Association With Radiographic Features.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Washington University in St Louis, Saint Louis, Missouri, USA.
Background: Consequences of osteochondral fractures associated with patellar dislocation can be severe for younger patients. Precise 3-dimensional characterization of fracture location, size, frequency, and radiographic associations remain undefined in this population.
Purpose: (1) To define the topographic characteristics of osteochondral fractures in pediatric and adolescent patients with first-time patellar dislocations and (2) to determine the relationship between these characteristics and radiographic and patient factors.
Long bone fractures with associated vascular injury: Who should go first?
Injury
January 2025
Temple University Hospital, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, USA.
Objectives: Long bone fractures with concomitant vascular injury have the potential to be life and limb threatening injuries, with increased risk for limb loss. There is currently no established surgical order of operations for orthopaedic and vascular intervention. This study compares injury classification, warm ischemia time and patient outcomes in patients with long bone fractures and associated vascular injury after orthopaedic versus vascular primary intervention.

Trauma Case Rep

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Misawa City Hospital, 164-65 Horiguchi, Misawa, Misawa-shi, Aomori 033-0022, Japan.
Irreducible ankle fracture-dislocations due to posterior tibialis tendon (PTT) interposition in the distal tibiofibular and tibiotalar joints are rarely reported, and their diagnoses are often missed and delayed. In addition, previous reports lacked a longer clinical follow-up period, and objective and subjective evaluations of such cases have not been reported. A 22-year-old man sustained an open fracture-dislocation of the ankle joint associated with a distal third of the fibular shaft fracture and diastasis of the distal tibiofibular joint.

JSES Rev Rep Tech
February 2025
UC Davis Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Oregon Shoulder Institute, Medford, OR, USA.
Background: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is an increasingly common procedure for proximal humerus fractures (PHFs), but postoperative complications have not been well characterized. The purpose of this systematic review is to assess complications and revision rates following rTSA in the management of PHFs as documented in current literature.
Methods: A systematic review was performed on primary rTSA for PHFs.
