Feasibility of diagnosing osteoporosis using routine computed tomography scans for hip fractures: Correlation with histopathological diagnosis of head and neck regions.

Objective: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of diagnosing osteoporosis through routine computed tomography (CT) by assessing the association between the histopathological assessment of femoral head specimens extracted from patients who underwent surgery for intertrochanteric fractures and the Hounsfield unit (HU) measurements derived from preoperative CT scans.

Methods: Forty-eight patients who presented to our clinic between November 2019 and May 2020 with hip fractures and underwent partial prosthesis fixation were included in this retrospective study. Hounsfield unit measurements were performed on the head and neck regions using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and CT scans, respectively.

Comparison of Functional Outcomes and Complications of Inlay and Onlay Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty in Neer Type 4 Proximal Humerus Fractures and Cuff Tear Arthropathy: A Multicentric Study.

Background: This multicenter retrospective study was conducted with the objective of comparing the outcomes and complications between inlay and onlay reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) in patients presenting Neer Type 4 proximal humerus fractures and cuff tear arthropathy. The primary aim of this investigation was to assess and juxtapose the clinical as well as functional outcomes of individuals who underwent onlay reverse shoulder arthroplasty with those who underwent inlay reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted, involving patients who had undergone reverse shoulder arthroplasty between the period of 2016 and 2022.
