Published: June 1994

The authors present a variant of Desault's bandage for fixation of conservatively treated injuries of the proximal end of the humerus and for fixation of the upper extremity after surgery in this area. The bandage is made with elastic net bandage (called pruban), it is sufficiently strong and its application is easier and less time consuming.

Clavicle emergency fixation can prevent fractured end from piercing heart and lung organs, which is crucial for wounded life. Clavicle with complex structure, great individual differences, and adjacent to important organs, which places high-requirements on performance of fixation materials. Developing advanced clavicle fixation material is a prominent hot-topic in the field of emergency-engineering.

Background: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) of the upper extremities is a severe surgical pathology, and the incidence of this disease has been steadily increasing in recent decades. Surgical treatment is accompanied by the formation of extensive wounds, which can be treated with significant difficulties. In recent years, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has proven to be highly effective.

Article Synopsis
  • Bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation (BASD) is a rare condition often caused by trauma, as demonstrated in a case involving a 51-year-old male who sustained injuries from a fall, leading to BASD and a wrist fracture.
  • The patient underwent urgent surgical treatment; both shoulders were reduced using the Hippocratic maneuver, and a wrist fixator was applied after closed reduction of the wrist.
  • Post-surgery, the patient followed a rehabilitation plan that included immobilization, mobility exercises starting at three weeks, and progressive rehabilitation for the wrist and shoulders, while emphasizing the need for thorough clinical assessments to identify potential accompanying injuries.

Objectives:  The aim of this retrospective study was to report the magnitude of the craniocaudal angulation of the proximal tibia (CCAPT) quantified by the angle between the anatomical axis (AA) and the mechanical axis (MA), called the AMA angle, and the tibial plateau angle (TPA) in dogs >50 kg that were treated by cranial closing wedge osteotomy based on the AMA angle (AMA-based CCWO). Furthermore, the percentage of dogs in which the AA and MA could be aligned postoperatively and the rate of surgical site infection (SSI) were reported.

Study Design:  Medical records (between January 2016 and September 2023) were reviewed for 204 dogs that had AMA-based CCWO stabilized with a double locking plate (DLP) fixation with or without joint exploration plus a Robert Jones bandage (RJB) and were given postoperative antibiotics.
