Hace 4 días · Galeazzi fracture-dislocations are unstable requiring surgical intervention, which involves open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the radial fracture, intraoperative assessment of the distal radioulnar joint for reducibility and stability, and subsequent Kirschner wire fixation of the ulna to the radius, triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) exploration and repair, and splinting or ...

Basilar fractures of the skull, also known as base of skull or skull base fractures , are a common form of skull fracture, particularly in the setting of severe traumatic head injury, and involve the base of the skull.

10 de may. de 2024 · Plain radiographs remain the mainstay of diagnosis and characterization of distal femoral fractures. However, CT is often helpful, since most distal femoral fractures are intra-articular 1. MRI can be helpful if concomitant meniscal tears or a ligamentous injury is suspected 3. Fractures will usually show a radiolucency or cortical breach.
9 de may. de 2024 · Citation, DOI, disclosures and article data. Facial fractures are commonly caused by blunt or penetrating trauma at moderate or high levels of force. Such injuries may be sustained during a fall, physical assault, motor vehicle collision, or gunshot wound. The facial bones are thin and relatively fragile, making them susceptible to injury.
Hace 4 días · If a fracture is not detected on initial radiographic imaging, CT may be obtained if there is a high index of suspicion. There is ongoing debate whether CT provides any further benefit compared to plain radiography alone. Literature suggests that CT does not lead to a change in treatment recommendation compared to plain radiographs.

7 de may. de 2024 · Patella fractures account for approximately 1% of all skeletal injuries. They become problematic if the extensor mechanism of the knee is nonfunctional, articular congruity is lost, or stiffness of the knee joint ensues. [ 1] To avoid these problems, the surgeon must achieve anatomic restoration of the joint and must allow early motion.
