To evaluate the clinical outcomes of the modified lateral approach combined with the medial percutaneous approach (MLACMPA) versus the triceps tongue-shaped flap approach (TTSFA) and the bilateral triceps brachii approach (BTBA) in the treatment of irreducible displaced supracondylar humeral fractures (SHFs) in children. Between March 2000 and July 2022, a total of 135 children who underwent open reduction and Kirschner wire cross internal fixation for irreducible displaced SHFs caused by trauma were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical approach, the patients were assigned to the TTSFA group (n = 36), the BTBA group (n = 40) and the MLACMPA group (n = 59). The duration of surgery, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, and elbow range of motion were compared. The 3 groups were similar in terms of mean age, sex distribution, and time from injury to operation. The duration of surgery, intraoperative blood loss, incision length and postoperative elbow range of motion in the MLACMPA group were significantly superior to those in the TTSFA group and BTBA group (P < .05). Compared the use of the TTSFA or the BTBA, using the MLACMPA for pin fixation in the treatment of irreducible displaced pediatric SHFs could significantly shorten the duration of surgery, reduce the operation trauma, facilitate earlier functional exercise of joints after operation and yield better elbow function.

Irreducible Intertrochanteric Fractures: Analysis of Various Fracture Patterns and Reduction Techniques.

Trauma and Orthopaedics, PSG Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Coimbatore, IND.
Background Numerous classifications exist for intertrochanteric (IT) fractures, commonly focused on stability. However, the currently utilized Arbeitsgemeinschaft Osteosynthesefragen and Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification has limitations in identifying irreducible fractures. This study aims to answer the following questions: does fracture stability imply irreducibility; which fracture fragments complicate reduction; and which reduction techniques should be employed? Materials and methods Eligibility criteria included fractures in adult long bones without pathological fractures being treated by native conservative means.

Irreducible water saturation is an important factor affecting the development effect of low permeability reservoir. Using the self-developed ultrasonic generator, kerosene was used as simulated oil, the natural low-permeability siltstone cores with different physical properties in Zhongyuan Oilfield were selected for indoor oil displacement experiment, and the effect of ultrasonic action on the saturation of irreducible water in low-permeability reservoirs was evaluated. It was found that ultrasound can further reduce the saturation of irreducible water on the basis of oil flooding.

Purpose: The management of irreducible, sagittally unstable peritrochanteric fractures presents a significant challenge due to the inability to achieve closed reduction using conventional techniques. This study introduces a novel minimally invasive technique leveraging the mechanical advantage principle with long, angled hemostatic clamps.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 16 patients who sustained sagittally unstable peritrochanteric fractures and underwent a percutaneous hemostatic clamp leverage reduction procedure.
Bandgap characteristics of four component periodic pile barriers in passive vibration isolation.
Sci Rep
November 2024
School of Civil Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, 610031, China.
Based on the local resonance theory, the vibration isolation performance of four-component periodic pile barriers consisting of a matrix, an outer pipe, an inner pipe, and a pile core was investigated using the finite element method (FEM). This configuration is contrasted with traditional three-component periodic pile barriers, which are composed of a matrix, a pipe, and a pile core. The four-component systems demonstrate significantly broader bandgaps compared to three-component systems.

Article Synopsis
- Shoulder dislocations can be complicated by soft tissue or bone obstructions, which may lead to failed reduction attempts, as illustrated by a case of a 35-year-old man with a fracture-dislocation after a fall.
- Despite seemingly successful reduction on initial imaging, a CT scan revealed underlying issues like muscle entrapment and avulsion fractures, prompting surgical intervention.
- Post-surgery, the patient had a good recovery with significant function, emphasizing the need for thorough imaging and patient monitoring after shoulder dislocations.
