Supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHF) in children are common and can lead to serious complications, including neurovascular injury. The optimal management of children with a 'pink pulseless' hand following such a fracture is unclear. This study aimed to ascertain an appropriate therapeutic approach for children with SCHF and a pink pulseless hand.

Article Synopsis
  • Treating complex proximal humerus fractures in older adults is challenging, with locking plates having many complications despite being the more common option over shoulder replacements.
  • A study on 58 patients at the Ho Chi Minh City Hospital found that patients treated with locking compression plates had varying functional outcomes, with a mean Constant-Murley score of about 70.8 and a QDASH score indicating limited disability.
  • Complication rates were 10.3%, and factors such as the type of fracture, age, and bone density impacted treatment success, highlighting the need for careful patient selection and management.

Introduction: Effective vascular anastomosis is crucial for successful hand surgery, particularly in traumatic injuries where rapid restoration of blood flow is essential. The Synovis microvascular anastomotic coupler system presents a novel approach by potentially offering faster and more reliable outcomes than traditional suturing methods. This study was conducted to assess the effectiveness and safety of the Synovis coupler for microvascular anastomoses in the wrist, evaluating anastomosis time, patency rates, and complication rates.

Background Congenital syndactyly is a common congenital hand anomaly that impairs daily activities and impacts both functional and aesthetic outcomes. The fusion of adjacent fingers limits functionality and often requires surgical intervention to restore web spacing, maintain function, and improve appearance. This study evaluates surgical outcomes of congenital syndactyly treatment using flap and graft techniques, focusing on older patients.

Introduction: Standard surgical management for the terrible triad of the elbow (TTE) has been established since 2004, yet postoperative complications are common and consensus on optimal management is absent. Different surgical algorithms for treating TTE and their efficacy have been reported worldwide, yet evidence from Vietnam remains limited.

Methods: Ten cases diagnosed with TTE admitted to the Hospital of Traumatology and Orthopedics, a tertiary orthopedic center in Ho Chi Minh City, were presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and rate of postoperative complications following our stepwise surgical procedures using the anconeus-triceps lateral flap approach.

Purpose: This study evaluated the relationship between maximal axial vertebra rotation (maxAVR) and other clinical and radiological indexes, compared to apical vertebra rotation (AVR) in idiopathic adolescent scoliosis (AIS).

Methods: Forty consecutive patients of AIS with Cobb angle of major curve > 40° were included. They were scanned by an EOS imaging system and had trunk rotational angle (TRA) measured by scoliometer.

Background:  Supracondylar humeral fractures are the most prevalent elbow fractures in pediatric patients. Current treatment modalities typically involve closed reduction and fixation using percutaneous Kirschner wires. The lateral cross-wiring technique has demonstrated favorable functional and cosmetic outcomes, thereby reducing the incidence of ulnar nerve injury.

Purpose Understanding the relevant risk factors for patellar instability and the clinical and radiographic tests necessary to determine optimal treatment. This case series intends to evaluate arthroscopic indications in the treatment of patellar instability in children. Methods From 2013 to 2021, 33 patients (seven to 16 years of age) with 35 knees sustaining first-time dislocation with loose bodies, recurrent dislocation or subluxation, and habitual dislocation were arthroscopically operated on according to the flow chart.

Background: Intertrochanteric fractures are highly prevalent among the elderly population, with approximately 90% occurring in individuals aged over 65. These geriatric fractures are associated with elevated mortality rates and significant functional impairment. Common treatment modalities for unstable intertrochanteric fractures include proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and the InterTan nail (IT).

Introduction: The intricate endeavor of replanting the distal phalanx of the finger remains a persistent challenge. In the pursuit of addressing this concern, microsurgical replantation procedures have been systematically examined for distal phalanx injuries encircling the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint, conducted at the Orthopaedic Hospital situated in Ho Chi Minh City.

Materials And Methods: This investigation encompassed a cohort of 31 patients, comprising individuals with 17 instances of complete and 21 instances of incomplete amputations of the distal phalanges.

Outcomes of early treatment of radial dysplasia.

J Clin Orthop Trauma

March 2024

Microsurgery and Limb Reconstruction Department, Hospital for Traumatology and Orthopaedics, Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam.

Purpose: Radial dysplasia, also termed radial club hand is an abnormality along the longitudinal axis of the hand characterized by hypoplasia or aplasia of radial structures. Surgery that centralize the wrist on the distal end of the ulna gives quite good results in terms of anatomical recovery but affecting range of motion of the wrist and fingers, limbs length. We conducted this study to evaluate the outcome of serial casting followed by centralization at our institution.

The condition combining a dislocated humeral head fracture and an ipsilateral humeral shaft fracture is seen to be rare in literature, which is limited to case report or case series. Furthermore, effective management of these coexistent injuries is still a subject of debate. The essential purpose of this article is to report another treatment method for this condition.

November 2018

Research Institute of Cardiology and Regenerative Medicine, University of Latvia, Riga, Latvia; Cell Transplantation Centre Pauls, Scientific Institute, Stradins Clinical University Hospital, Riga, Latvia; Latvian Centre of Cardiology, Pauls Stradins Clinical University Hospital, Riga, Latvia.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare treatment methods of the knee joint degenerative osteoarthritis, using autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells and hyaluronic acid injections and observe prevalence of adverse effects in both groups.

Materials And Methods: A prospective randomized controlled clinical trial was carried out. The analysis of pain and changes in osteoarthritis symptoms after a single intra-articular bone marrow-derived mononuclear cell injection into the knee joint in the Kellgren-Lawrence stage II-III osteoarthritis during the 12-month period were performed.

Despite the increasing popularity of the Ponseti method for the treatment of idiopathic congenital clubfeet, the relapse rate and sequela after the initial correction of manipulating and casting remain high. This study presents a scale to evaluate the relapse and identify the factors correlated with the relapse and latest follow-up mid-term results. A total of 101 children (newborn to 12 months), 142 idiopathic congenital clubfeet, were recruited for this study following treatment with the Ponseti method at the Hospital for Traumatology and Orthopaedics (Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam) with a follow-up period of a minimum of 2 years.
