Computed tomography plays an ever-increasing role in the management of fractures and dislocations due to its capability in efficiently providing multiplanar reformats and 3-dimensional volume rendered images. It can reveal findings that are occult on plain radiography and therefore allow for more accurate decision making with regard to fracture classification and management. Clinical radiologists play a critical role in facilitating the processing of imaging to provide adequate image reformats in the desired planes, producing 3 dimensional images but most crucially identifying pertinent findings, which will contribute between the selection of nonoperative and operative management and potentially influence surgical technique.

Background: As surgical interventions for lymphedema become increasingly available, it is important to understand characteristics of patients that undergo lymphedema surgery. The goal of this study was to define clinical variables of patients evaluated at a medical center who underwent lymphedema surgery to better inform which referred patients are surgical candidates.
Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was performed on patients referred to plastic surgery for lymphedema between January 2016 and June 2023.
Outcomes of Knee Dislocations and Subluxations in Polytrauma Patients at a Major Trauma Center.

Department of Trauma and Orthopaedics, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Cambridge, GBR.
Background This is a retrospective service evaluation of outcomes of polytrauma patients sustaining knee dislocations and subluxations within a major trauma center (MTC). Polytrauma patients with knee dislocations are complex to manage and often sustain multiple life-threatening injuries. Although treatments have progressed, no consensus remains on management timing and strategy.
