Article Abstract
Objective: The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures has been increasing annually. However, clinical surgeons have overlooked the impaction fractures of the posterolateral tibial plateau and lateral femoral condyle in patients with ACL ruptures. The purpose of the present study was to report the detection rate of the posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures in patients with ACL ruptures, and to evaluate the functional outcomes of patients following ACL reconstruction (ACLR) without treatment of the tibial fractures at a 2-year postoperative follow-up.
Methods: Four hundred eighty-eight patients treated for ACL ruptures between January 2016 and June 2020 were retrospectively reviewed, and the posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures were classified based on MRI assessment. The detection rate of the posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures was calculated, and the functional outcomes (SF-12 Mental Component Summaries, SF-12 Physical Component Summaries, Tegner, Lysholm, IKDC, and KOOS) were evaluated at a 2-year postoperative follow-up.
Results: The detection rate of posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures was 41.6% among ACL ruptures. Of these, 285 cases (58.4%) had no fractures, 98 cases (20.1%) had type I impaction fractures, 41 cases (8.4%) had type IIA impaction fractures, 15 cases (3.1%) had type IIB impaction fractures, 22 cases (4.5%) had type IIIA impaction fractures, and 27 cases (5.5%) had type IIIB impaction fractures. Patients with type IIIA or IIIB impaction fractures showed an increased detection rate of contact mechanism compared to the other subgroups. Significant differences in Tegner (postoperation) and KOOS (QOL) were found between no fracture and type IIIB impaction fractures in patients following ACLR.
Conclusions: The detection rate of posterolateral tibial plateau impaction fractures in patients with ACL ruptures was high. Patients with type IIIB impaction fractures following ACLR had poor functional outcomes.

Design: This scoping review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews guideline.
Data Sources: PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data and Sinomed databases were systematically searched from database inception to 1 September 2024.
Anatomical reduction and fixation of reverse Hill-Sachs lesion: description of a surgical technique.

Reverse Hill-Sachs lesions pose a complex challenge in the acute management of posterior shoulder dislocations, often resulting in joint incongruity and compromised function. This article describes a surgical technique for the anatomical reduction and fixation of humeral head impaction injuries, aiming to restore the native sphericity of the articular surface and optimize joint stability. The proposed technique enables the precise realignment of the humeral cartilage and subchondral bone, thereby minimizing residual deformity and preserving the biomechanical integrity of the glenohumeral joint.

Introduction: Acetabular fractures typically involve disruption of cortical columns or walls and are well-classified by Judet, Letournel, and AO/OTA systems. However, some injuries involve pure osteochondral impaction of the articular surface without cortical involvement, making them difficult to detect and unclassified by current systems. This study identifies and evaluates a rare, previously undescribed acetabular injury pattern-posterior dome osteochondral impaction without cortical fracture.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical effect of piezosurgery combined with 45°contra-angle turbine drill in extraction of impacted mandibular wisdom teeth.
Methods: A total of 146 patients with impacted wisdom teeth at the median mandibular level admitted from June 2022 to June 2024 were randomly divided into control group and experimental group, with 73 cases in each group. The wisdom teeth in the control group were simply removed using 45° contra-angle turbine drill, while those in the experimental group were removed using piezosurgery combined with 45° contra-angle turbine drill.
Mandibular distraction osteogenesis for mandibular retrognathism caused by malunion of bilateral mandibular condyle fractures in childhood with temporomandibular joint dislocation: a case report.

Untreated mandibular condyle fractures in childhood can result in significant jaw deformities, such as mandibular retrognathism, open bite, and facial asymmetry, which may necessitate surgical intervention in later years. Surgical approaches vary depending on the severity of the condition, including mandibular surgery alone, maxillomandibular surgery, or mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO). This report highlights a case involving mandibular retrognathism and open bite with condylar dislocation and malunion caused by untreated pediatric condyle fractures.
