The author has reported 42 operations on the pelvic girdle and femoral bones. Two new variants of surgical intervention are suggested: 1) interiliac-pubic-sciatic amputation of a lower extremity, and 2) extended exarticulation of the femur. Des keletization of pelvic bones in both operative procedures renders them more ablastic and radical as compared with routine operations. Interiliac-abdominal resection is felt to be more rational from the rehabilitation viewpoint, moreover it is the author's opinion that resection of the femoral proximal segment should be avoided whenever possible.

Biomechanical evaluation of the modified proximal femoral nail for the treatment of reverse obliquity intertrochanteric fractures.
Sci Rep

The best treatment method for reverse obliquity intertrochanteric fractures (ROIFs) is still under debate. Our team designed the modified proximal femoral nail (MPFN) specially for treating such fractures. The objective of this research was to introduce the MPFN device and compare the biomechanical properties with Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA) and InterTAN nail via finite element modelling.

Vascularized bone grafts have been successfully established for complex bone defects. The integration of three-dimensional (3D) simulation and printing technology may aid in more precise surgical planning and intraoperative bone shaping. The purpose of the present study was to describe the implementation and surgical application of this innovative technology for bone reconstruction.

Managing periprosthetic femoral fractures is challenging, particularly in osteoporotic patients with fragile bones. Revision with a long stem is commonly considered but may fail to provide adequate fixation and stability in fragile bones. A novel approach using sandwiched strut allografts and controlled bone crushing with robust cable fixation can offer mechanical support and provide secondary stability to the loosened femoral stem and can be considered a treatment option for low-demand patients.

: Bone and mineral disease (BMD) is a prevalent complication of advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). The risk of fractures can be assessed via dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two imaging modalities in identifying bone mineral status in individuals with pre-dialysis chronic renal disease and to assess their correlation with bone turnover markers.

The study aimed to evaluate a newly designed semicircular implant for the fixation of Vancouver Type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFFs) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients. To determine its strength and clinical applicability, the new implant was compared biomechanically with conventional fixation methods, such as lateral locking plate fixation and a plate combined with cerclage wires. : Fifteen synthetic femur models were used in this biomechanical study.
