Article Abstract
In this study, we report on the outcomes of our experience using a metaphyseal sleeve with a distal femoral replacement (DFR) and review the risk factors for sleeve subsidence over a 3 year period.

The Role of Immediate Arthroplasty in Elderly Tibial Plateau Fractures.
Orthop Rev (Pavia)
September 2025
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.

Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumors and are frequently discovered incidentally in the metaphyseal regions of long bones during growth. While typically asymptomatic, they may occasionally lead to complications such as neurovascular impingement, mechanical irritation, or pathological fractures. Salter-Harris type II fractures represent the most frequent physeal injuries in pediatric populations, particularly in rapidly growing regions like the distal femur.

Introduction: Ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft fractures (IFN-SFs) caused by high-energy trauma pose a significant risk of complications related to bone healing. Prompt identification of fracture types and maintenance of fracture fixation stability can mitigate this risk. This study employed finite element analysis to evaluate biomechanical parameters for the stability of fixation in IFN-SFs and quantify differences in biomechanical stability among various fracture types.

Purpose: To identify factors that contribute to the speed of angular correction in skeletally immature patients with genu varum treated with paraphyseal tension band plates, hypothesizing that screw length and divergence, severity of deformity, and underlying pathology influence the rate and speed of genu varum correction.
Methods: Fifty-three patients (38 males, 15 females) undergoing genu varum correction were included; a total of 138 physes (64 distal femur, 74 proximal tibia) were assessed. The median age at surgery was 37.
