  • Skier Tibia (Leg) Fractures
    Skier Tibia (Leg) Fractures In years past, the prototypical ski fracture was sustained at the lower part of the outside of the leg in the region of the ankle. However, in the past 10 years, with the advent of the modern ski boots and improvements in binding, the most commonly seen lower leg skier fracture is the tibia (or shinbone) fracture. 10% of these fractures are associated with a collision. Thus, 90 % are associated with an isolated fall or noncontact type of injury, which is generally the result of binding malfunctions and inappropriate release. The most common mechanism leading to a tibia (leg) fracture is a forward fall. Risk factors for sustaining a skier tibia fracture include: beginners or novice skiers, less than 20 years of age, higher outdoor temperatures, and increased snow depth. Non-risk factors include ski lengths, icy conditions, and male versus female sex. The modern ski boot very closely resembles an extremely well padded short leg cast in the treatment of many orthopaedic lower extremity fractures. It of course goes to a much higher level than the former shorter boot top-level varieties. The binding release and designs have been based on the fracture strength of the adult tibia (shin) bone at the top of the modern ski boot. The treatment of most skier leg fractures includes a closed reduction and cast application for variable periods of time, with or without weight bearing allowed. However, severe misalignments of the bones can lead to later bony prominences that may be incompatible with snug, rigid, high fitting ski boots.

    1 COPYRIGHT Ó 2020 BY THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY,INCORPORATED Free Vascularized Fibula Graft with Femoral Allograft Sleeve for Lumbar Spine Defects After Spondylectomy of Malignant Tumors ACaseReport Michiel E.R. Bongers, MD, John H. Shin, MD, Sunita D. Srivastava, MD, Christopher R. Morse, MD, Sang-Gil Lee, MD, and Joseph H. Schwab, MD, MS Investigation performed at Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts Abstract Case: We present a 65-year-old man with an L4 conventional chordoma. Total en bloc spondylectomy (TES) of the involved vertebral bodies and surrounding soft tissues with reconstruction of the spine using a free vascularized fibula autograft (FVFG) is a proven technique, limiting complications and recurrence. However, graft fracture has occurred only in the lumbar spine in our institutional cases. We used a technique in our patient to ensure extra stability and support, with the addition of a femoral allograft sleeve encasing the FVFG. Conclusions: Our technique for the reconstruction of the lumbar spine after TES of primary malignant spinal disease using a femoral allograft sleeve encasing the FVFG is viable to consider. he treatment of primary malignant neoplasms of the spine mended a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but the request currently mainly relies on surgery, often in conjunction with was denied by the insurance company, and the patient T 1-3 radiotherapy .Totalen bloc spondylectomy (TES) is a widely underwent a course of physical therapy with no benefitand accepted surgical technique and has lower reported recurrence rates progression of back pain and radiculopathy.

  • Common Stress Fractures BRENT W
    COVER ARTICLE PRACTICAL THERAPEUTICS Common Stress Fractures BRENT W. SANDERLIN, LCDR, MC, USNR, Naval Branch Medical Clinic, Fort Worth, Texas ROBERT F. RASPA, CAPT, MC, USN, Naval Hospital Jacksonville, Jacksonville, Florida Lower extremity stress fractures are common injuries most often associated with partic- ipation in sports involving running, jumping, or repetitive stress. The initial diagnosis can be made by identifying localized bone pain that increases with weight bearing or repet- itive use. Plain film radiographs are frequently unrevealing. Confirmation of a stress frac- ture is best made using triple phase nuclear medicine bone scan or magnetic resonance imaging. Prevention of stress fractures is most effectively accomplished by increasing the level of exercise slowly, adequately warming up and stretching before exercise, and using cushioned insoles and appropriate footwear. Treatment involves rest of the injured bone, followed by a gradual return to the sport once free of pain. Recent evidence sup- ports the use of air splinting to reduce pain and decrease the time until return to full par- ticipation or intensity of exercise. (Am Fam Physician 2003;68:1527-32.

  • Normative Values for Femoral Length, Tibial Length, Andthe Femorotibial
    Article Normative Values for Femoral Length, Tibial Length, and the Femorotibial Ratio in Adults Using Standing Full-Length Radiography Stuart A Aitken MaineGeneral Medical Center, 35 Medical Center Parkway, Augusta, ME 04330, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Knowledge of the normal length and skeletal proportions of the lower limb is required as part of the evaluation of limb length discrepancy. When measuring limb length, modern standing full-length digital radiographs confer a level of clinical accuracy interchangeable with that of CT imaging. This study reports a set of normative values for lower limb length using the standing full-length radiographs of 753 patients (61% male). Lower limb length, femoral length, tibial length, and the femorotibial ratio were measured in 1077 limbs. The reliability of the measurement method was tested using the intra-class correlation (ICC) of agreement between three observers. The mean length of 1077 lower limbs was 89.0 cm (range 70.2 to 103.9 cm). Mean femoral length was 50.0 cm (39.3 to 58.4 cm) and tibial length was 39.0 cm (30.8 to 46.5 cm). The median side-to-side difference was 0.4 cm (0.2 to 0.7, max 1.8 cm) between 324 paired limbs. The mean ratio of femoral length to tibial length for the study population was 1.28:1 (range 1.16 to 1.39). A moderately strong inverse linear relationship (r = −0.35, p < 0.001, Pearson’s) was identified between tibial length and the Citation: Aitken, S.A. Normative corresponding femorotibial ratio.

    Tibial De-Rotational Osteotomies for Tibial Torsion Why does my child need tibial torsion surgery? What happens during the surgery? A lot of young children walk with their toes pointing in or First, the surgeon cracks the tibia and the smaller fibula bone out instead of straight ahead. The most common reason is next to it, usually just above the ankle. Surgically cracking a tibial torsion, a twist in the tibia bone of the lower leg. This bone is also known as an osteotomy. It is similar to breaking twist brings the knee and ankle out of alignment. The feet a bone, except that it is done on purpose. The surgeon respond by turning in (internal tibia torsion) or out (external weakens the tibia bone first by drilling holes through a small tibia torsion). Most of the time, tibial torsion gets better as a surgical opening. The next step is to rotate, or turn, the bone child exercises the leg muscles by walking and running. into correct alignment. The surgeon then places a pin in the bone just below the knee. The pin will be removed once the But when a child has spasticity, a condition in which muscle bone heals.

The system allows for polyaxial screw placement (30°) with subsequent screw locking. Before locking, the screws can act as lag screws and be used for fracture reduction; a benefit which is not offered with standard locking systems. Implants are available with 2 or 3 proximal holes, left and right. Plate length In the locked mode, NCB PT Plate late varies from 5 to 9 shaft acts as an internal fixator without holes for the 2-proximal hole contact between the plate and the plate and between 3 and 13 shaft holes for the 3-proxi- bone surface reducing the risk of mal hole plate.
