Introduction/background: Complex articular fractures around the knee in the elderly patient present an ongoing challenge regarding optimal treatment. While extensive research has evaluated immediate arthroplasty following fracture of the proximal femur, distal femur, proximal humerus, and elbow, relatively little focus has been given to immediate arthroplasty following complex tibia plateau fractures.
Methods: As seen with many other fractures, arthroplasty can shorten recovery and hospital stay and allow early weight-bearing with improved mobility while minimizing complications and possible future conversion arthroplasty cost.

Background: Once women decide to use modern contraception, choosing among available methods becomes a decision that is fundamentally their right. While the World Health Organization (WHO) and Ethiopia's Ministry of Health promote long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods due to their significant health and economic benefits, short-acting injectables remain the most widely used method, accounting for use by over 50% of contraceptive users in Ethiopia. This persistent divergence highlights a crucial gap in understanding the factors that truly influence women's individual method selection.
