In the reduction process of a comminuted fracture, which is more reliable, the anteroposterior view or the lateral view?
Femoral intertrochanteric fracture is the most common hip fracture in clinical practice and is one of the three most common fractures associated with osteoporosis in the elderly. Conservative treatment requires prolonged bed rest, posing high risks of pressure sores, pul...Read more -
How is closed reduction Cannulated Screw internal fixation performed for femoral neck fractures?
Femoral neck fracture is a common and potentially devastating injury for orthopaedic surgeons, due to the fragile blood supply, the incidence of fracture non-union and osteonecrosis is higher, the optimal treatment for femoral neck fracture is still controversial, most s...Read more -
Surgical Technique | Medial Column Screw Assisted Fixation for Proximal Femoral Fractures
Proximal femoral fractures are commonly seen clinical injuries resulting from high-energy trauma. Due to the anatomical characteristics of the proximal femur, the fracture line often lies close to the articular surface and may extend into the joint, making it less suitab...Read more -
Distal Radius Fractures Loking Fixation Method
Currently for internal fixation of distal radius fractures, there are various anatomical locking plate systems used in the clinic. These internal fixations provide a better solution for some complex fracture types, and in some ways expand the indications for surgery for ...Read more -
Surgical Techniques | Three Surgical Approaches for Exposing the “Posterior Malleolus”
Fractures of the ankle joint caused by rotational or vertical forces, such as Pilon fractures, often involve the posterior malleolus. The exposure of the “posterior malleolus” is currently achieved through three main surgical approaches: the posterior lateral approach, posterior media...Read more -
Minimally Invasive Lumbar Surgery – Application of the Tubular Retraction System to Complete Lumbar Decompression Surgery
Spinal stenosis and disc herniation are the most common causes of lumbar nerve root compression and radiculopathy. Symptoms such as back and leg pain due to this group of disorders can vary greatly, or lack symptoms, or be very severe. Several studies have shown that surgical decompression when...Read more -
Surgical Technique | Introducing a technique for temporary reduction and maintenance of the external ankle length and rotation.
Ankle fractures are a common clinical injury. Due to the weak soft tissues around the ankle joint, there is significant blood supply disruption after injury, making healing challenging. Therefore, for patients with open ankle injuries or soft tissue contusions that cannot undergo immediate intern...Read more -
Which type of heel fracture must be implanted for internal fixation?
The answer to this question is that no heel fracture necessitates bone grafting when doing internal fixation. Sanders said In 1993, Sanders et al [1] published a landmark in the history of surgical treatment of calcaneal fractures in CORR with their CT-based classification of calcaneal fract...Read more -
Anterior screw fixation for odontoid fracture
Anterior screw fixation of the odontoid process preserves the rotational function of C1-2 and has been reported in the literature to have a fusion rate of 88% to 100%. In 2014, Markus R et al published a tutorial on the surgical technique of anterior screw fixation for odontoid fractures in The...Read more -
How to avoid the ‘in-out-in’ placement of femoral neck screws during surgery?
“For non-elderly femoral neck fractures, the most commonly used internal fixation method is the ‘inverted triangle’ configuration with three screws. Two screws are placed closely to the anterior and posterior cortices of the femoral neck, and one screw is positioned below. In th...Read more -
Anterior Clavicle Revealing Path
· Applied Anatomy The entire length of the clavicle is subcutaneous and easy to visualize. The medial end or sternal end of the clavicle is coarse, with its articular surface facing inward and downward, forming the sternoclavicular joint with the clavicular notch of the sternal handle; the latera...Read more -
Dorsal Scapular Exposure Surgical Pathway
· Applied Anatomy In front of the scapula is the subscapular fossa, where the subscapularis muscle starts. Behind is the outward and slightly upward traveling scapular ridge, which is divided into supraspinatus fossa and infraspinatus fossa, for the attachment of supraspinatus and infraspinatus m...Read more
