AI Article Synopsis
- Concomitant intracapsular and extracapsular fractures of the femoral neck are rare, with only 14 documented cases previously.
- In this study, three cases were treated with uncemented hip arthroplasties, including two total hip replacements and one hemiarthroplasty.
- The authors emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and personalized treatment options for optimal functional recovery in patients with these fractures.
Article Abstract
Concomitant ipsilateral intracapsular and extracapsular fractures of the femoral neck are rare injuries with only 14 cases described in the literature as single case reports. We present three cases that were successfully and uniquely treated by uncemented hip arthroplasties. Two patients underwent complex primary uncemented total hip replacements, and one patient underwent an uncemented bipolar fluted stem hemiarthroplasty. The level of bearing constraint varied between implants. After describing our cases we review the literature and make recommendations on the management of these injuries. We believe that these are significant injuries and best functional results can be achieved with an early diagnosis and patient-specific approach that can include a total hip replacement in appropriate cases.

This historical research article offers a comprehensive examination of the evolution of cataract surgery from ancient practices to modern innovations. The historical trajectory of cataract treatment will be explored, beginning with ancient techniques such as couching in ancient civilisations and progressing through critical milestones in surgical advancement. The research delves into the challenges faced by early practitioners, the emergence of novel techniques and the pivotal contributions of pioneering surgeons throughout history.

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.
