Background: For complete disruption of the posterolateral corner (PLC) structures, operative treatment is most commonly advocated, as nonoperative treatment has higher rates of persistent lateral laxity and posttraumatic arthritis. Some studies have shown that acute direct repair results in revision rates upwards of 37% to 40% compared with 6% to 9% for initial reconstruction. In a recent study assessing the outcomes of acute repair of PLC avulsion injuries with 2 to 7 years of follow-up, patients with adequate tissue were shown to have a much lower failure rate than previously documented.

Exposure to ionizing radiation can induce harmful biological effects on the human body, particularly in cases of high-dose γ-irradiation affecting the gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, skin and lung. Such exposures lead to lethal outcomes as individuals experience a breakdown in their immune system's ability to defend against pathogens, predisposing them to sepsis-induced multiple organ failures. Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) possess diverse biological characteristics, including immunomodulation, anti-inflammation and tissue regeneration.

During the proliferation stage, the wound undergoes granulation, angiogenesis, and epithelialization. Granulation involves the growth of connective tissue and blood vessels to fill the wound space.

Background: There is a global surge in blast injuries, which are associated with high morbidity and mortality. To our knowledge, there are no guidelines for the management of blast injuries in the trauma bay.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study utilized data on all patients admitted to our emergency department (ED) with terror- or combat-related injuries between October 7, 2023 (Gaza Iron Swords War onset) and February 4, 2024.
