In an osteochondral" fracture (see Figure 3), the entire joint cartilage is sheared from the end of the radius with its underlying support bone, leaving the shaft of the bone intact. This is a highly ...

Conclusions: For high-energy distal radius fractures, volar locking plate fixation and dual ... through a K-wire obliquely inserted from the radial styloid to the radial shaft. And then the volar side ...

Fracture of the ipsilateral femoral neck and shaft is primarily found in younger individuals, usually in their third or fourth decades, who have been involved in high-energy trauma. The overall ...

Background: Footballers constitute a unique group of patients with tibial shaft fractures. They tend to have excellent general health and well developed musculature in the leg, and their fractures are ...

Out of 853 patients with a tibia shaft fracture, 99 (12%) patients had a nonunion diagnosis associated with their tibia fracture treatment. Patients with nonunion had characteristics similar to ...

Johnson & Johnson MedTech announced today that it launched new variable angle optimized locking technology (VOLT) plating ...

Launched in 2024 with mini and small fragment plates, J&J MedTech’s VOLT platform now features plates for wrist and proximal humerus fractures.

Shaft failure analysis encompasses the examination of material properties, design flaws, and operational stressors, while fatigue fracture studies focus on the mechanisms by which cyclic loading ...

The clinical outcome is fairly positive, as the distal radius fracture is consolidated. The fracture line of the scaphoid is still visible, further electromagnetic therapies must be considered ...
