Background: Muscle and bone morphometry may be potent indicators for predicting femoral subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (FSSO). We aimed to investigate muscular and bony factors that may be predictive of FSSO.
Methods: Patients with unilateral Crowe type 4 developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who underwent unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) without (Group 1, 31 patients) and with FSSO (Group 2, 39 patients) were included. Sixty healthy hips (Group 3) were selected as the control group. Several muscular and bony parameters were measured on the operative (O) and non-operative (NO) hips on radiographs and computed tomography (CT) images.
Results: The mean NO gluteus medius cross-sectional area (CSA) index (NO-GMed CI), NO tensor fasia lata (TFL) CI, NO iliopsoas (IP) CI, and NO gluteus maximus (GMax) CI for the control group were lower than those for both Crowe type IV DDH with and without FSSO. The mean NO gluteus minimus CI (NO-GMin CI) for the control group were higher than those for both Crowe type IV DDH with and without FSSO. There was significant difference between Groups 1 and 2 regarding axial position of neo-acetabulum (APNA) (- 0.03 ± 8.5 vs. 5.27 ± 6.33, = 0.004), coronal position of neo-acetabulum (CPNA) (33.39 ± 10.65 vs. 53.70 ± 12.27, = 0.000), operative leg length discrepancy (O-LLD) (14.18 ± 15.14 vs. 24.44 ± 15.80, = 0.001), O-gluteus minimus (GMin) length (155.34 ± 157.73 vs. 106.79 ± 20, = < 0.01), and O-GMin CI (57.28 ± 58.59 vs. 29.95 ± 12.13, = < 0.01). The cutoff values determined by the receiving operating curve analyses were as follows: 13.7 mm, 2.5 mm, and 41.4 mm for O-LLD, APNA, and CPNA, respectively.
Conclusion: FSSO is associated with APNA, CPNA, O-LLD, O-GMin length, and O-GMin CI. By using cutoff values of APNA, CPNA, and O-LLD, predicting FSSO preoperatively is possible. Owing to these parameters, it may be possible to lower the technically demanding level of surgery.

Preserved Finger Flexion in Brachial Plexus Total Lesion: A Study of 16 Cases Among 989 Surgical Patients.
J Hand Surg Am
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Nossa Senhora da Conceição Hospital, Tubarão, Brazil.
Purpose: Brachial plexus traction injuries have conventionally been categorized as involving the C5-C6, C5-C7, C5-T1, and C8-T1 roots. In this article, we report a distinct clinical presentation of brachial plexus injury characterized by intact finger flexion with signs of complete brachial plexus injury.
Methods: From 2010 to 2022, 989 patients who sustained brachial plexus injuries were examined and underwent surgery.

Objective: To assess the utility of a bespoke smartphone app to map noise and vibration exposure across neonatal road ambulance journeys.
Design And Setting: Prospective observational study of ambulance journeys across a large UK neonatal transport service. Smartphones, with an in-house developed app, were secured to incubator trolleys to collect vibration and noise data for comparison with international standards.

Department of Orthopedics, Jinjiang Municipal Hospital/Clinical Research Center for Orthopaedic Trauma and Reconstruction of Fujian Province, Jinjiang, Quanzhou, Fujian, China.
Objective: By comparing the hip arthroplasty parameters planned with the AIHIP three-dimensional simulation surgery system, this study analyzes the accuracy of the new femoral-side "shoulder-to-shoulder" artificial anatomical marker positioning method in femoral-side prosthesis implantation and the prevention of leg length discrepancy in hip arthroplasty.
Methods: A retrospective collection of 47 patients who underwent initial total hip arthroplasty at our hospital from August 2020 to December 2022 and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria was used as the study subjects. The average age was 67.
Prevalence of indications of alcohol and drug use among patients treated for injurious falls by Emergency Medical Services in the USA.

Objective: The association between alcohol consumption and increased injuries from falls is well established, but there is a lack of data on the prevalence of substance use by fall type. This study aims to describe the distribution of alcohol and drug involvement in injurious falls.
Methods: Using the 2019 National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Information System data set, we identified 1 854 909 patients injured from falls requiring an EMS response and determined the fall location (eg, indoors or on street/sidewalk).
Morphological and bone defect mapping analysis of true acetabulum in Crowe type IV hip dysplasia.
J Orthop Surg Res

Department of Orthopedics, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences), Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, 510080, China.
Background: The primary aim of this study was to quantitatively analysis the acetabular morphological feature and 2D/3D coverage of the Crowe IV DDH hip, dividing into subgroups by the false acetabulum. The secondary aim was to propose a 3D bone mapping to determine acetabular bone defect analysis from the perspective of the implanted simulation.
Methods: A total of 53 Crowe IV hips (27 hips without the false acetabulum in IVa group and 26 hips in IVb group) and 40 normal hips met the inclusion criteria and were retrospectively evaluated.
