Article Abstract

The treatment of displaced proximal tibial fractures is challenging. Recent developments in the techniques of internal fixation, including the development of locking plates and minimally invasive surgical techniques have revolutionaries the treatment of such fractures. We present a case of proximal displaced tibial fracture that was treated with anatomical proximal tibial locking plate using minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis. Patient made uneventful recovery even after he sustained re-injury and plate bending and was manipulated under anaesthesia for the same.

Background: Romosozumab is a sclerostin-inhibiting monoclonal antibody that is effective and safe for anabolic treatment in patients with osteoporosis. Its main adverse effects are local; the severity of these injection-site reactions in clinical trials was generally mild.

Case Report: We present a case of a 71-year-old Colombian woman with osteoporosis at very high risk of fractures with no relevant history of drug allergies.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of internal fixation of locking compression plate and Cannulated Screw in treatment of elderly femoral neck fractures.

Methods: 175 patients with femoral neck fractures admitted to our hospital from January 2022 to December 2022 were enrolled in the study. 93 cases in the control group were treated with Cannulated Screw internal fixation, and 82 cases in the observation group were treated with locking plate internal fixation.

Background: Anticonvulsants are widely used in treating patients with mental and neurological disorders. Their long-term use increases the risk of a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and low-energy fractures. Despite the growing number of studies of drug-induced osteoporosis, the effect of anticonvulsants on bone microarchitecture remains poorly studied.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare but well-recognized complication of treatment with antiresorptive agents. Medication-related osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal (MROEAC), on the other hand, is even rarer and mostly reported during bisphosphonate exposure. Its pathophysiology is thought to involve complex multifactorial processes, including inhibition of bone remodeling, altered angiogenesis, infection, and inflammation.

Objective: Acetabular fractures are among the most severe injuries in trauma surgery. In younger patients, they typically result from high-energy trauma and are often associated with polytrauma. Treatment complexity and rehabilitation outcomes are influenced by overall injury severity.
