Distal Radius Fracture and Volar Locking Plate
1. Distal radius: anatomical definition and structural overview The distal radius forms the major articular surface of the wrist and contributes to both the radiocarpal joint and the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). The articular surface of the distal radius can be divided into two primary fossae: Scaphoid fossa:elliptical in shape and articulates with the […]

Anatomy and Frequency of Carpal Fractures
Carpal Bones The carpal bones are a group of eight small bones that form the wrist, arranged in proximal and distal rows. Their unique anatomy and positioning influence both the likelihood of fracture and the clinical presentation. Below is an overview of each bone and its fracture frequency, along with clinical considerations. Anatomy and Frequency […]

Mastering Callotasis: The Science and Strategy of Bone Lengthening
Callotasis as a Bone Elongation Method Callotasis, also known as distraction osteogenesis, is a surgical technique that prompts bone regeneration through gradual mechanical distraction. Following a controlled osteotomy, a distraction device,commonly an external fixator is applied. This initiates a sequence of healing phases where mechanical tension stimulates new bone formation in the gap between bone […]

Understanding Nonunion of Long Bone Fractures & How to Choose Between Ilizarov and MonoRail Fixators
1. What Is Long Bone Fracture Non-Union? A non-union occurs when a fracture does not heal on its own without further intervention. Clinically, most sources define this as persistence of a fracture after at least 6–9 months with no progression toward union in the last 3 months . Non-unions are often categorized as: Hypertrophic (biologically active but mechanically unstable) […]

Optimizing Outcomes in Distal Femoral Osteotomy: Is Internal Fixation the Superior Choice?
1. Introduction Distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) is an essential surgical procedure for correcting angular deformities of the distal femur, commonly due to malunion, adolescent Blount disease, metabolic conditions, osteoarthritis, or idiopathic origins. These deformities significantly disrupt mechanical axis alignment, placing abnormal stress on knee cartilage and potentially accelerating the progression of osteoarthritis. Over the past […]

Opening Wedge Locking Plate in Metatarsal Osteotomy: A Reliable Solution for Moderate to Severe Hallux Valgus
Definition of Hallux Valgus Hallux valgus is a common forefoot deformity characterized by a valgus deviation of the great toe and a varus deviation of the first metatarsal, resulting in a prominent medial bump or “bunion.” It often leads to pain, reduced mobility, and discomfort in footwear. According to radiographic evaluation standards, severity can be defined by: Hallux […]

Eight-Plate vs. Reconstruction Plate in Pediatric Guided Growth
1. Introduction Pediatric lower limb angular deformities, such as genu varum (bowlegs) and genu valgum (knock-knees), require timely intervention to prevent joint degeneration and improve gait and aesthetics. In growing children, guided growth, also known as temporary hemiepiphysiodesis, is a minimally invasive solution that leverages the child’s remaining growth potential to correct deformity gradually. Among the […]

A Reliable Surgical Strategy for AO Type C3 Distal Radius Fractures: Distal Radius Fixator with LCP Volar Distal Radius Plate
AO Type C3 Distal Radius Fractures Distal radius fractures are among the most common orthopedic injuries worldwide, especially in older adults following low-energy trauma or in younger individuals due to high-impact injuries. According to the AOclassification, distal radius fractures are divided into types A (extra-articular), B (partial articular), and C (complete articular). AO type C3 is […]
