Background: Transolecranon fracture is an unstable intra-articular injury in the elbow caused by high-energy trauma. Here, we introduce a medial humerus plate for severely comminuted transolecranon fracture. Case Report: This article presents the case of a 29-year-old man who had a severely comminuted transolecranon fracture due to a motorcycle accident. A dorsal longitudinal approach was used in order to reach the fracture site. An olecranon anatomical plate and a medial humerus plate were applied for fixation, a new treatment method. The range of motion (ROM) was complete at a two-month follow-up, and the Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS) was obtained 100 with no signs of complications. Conclusion: Despite the several methods available for fixing transolecranon fractures, using the medial humerus plate, especially in severe comminution, can yield acceptable results. It should be considered in future studies to prove its efficacy in this type of fracture.

Background: Trauma is a leading cause of death and morbidity in developing countries. Previous research has revealed that epidemiological features of fractures may change from one study to the next. National Trauma Registry of Iran (NTRI) was launched in 2015, but it did not include any centers in northern Tehran, Iran. This study aimed to evaluate the epidemiology of fractures in the only Level 1 Trauma Center in that area. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was performed on all patients with the primary diagnosis of orthopedic injury, from July to October 2019, who referred to the emergency department of Shohada Tajrish Hospital, Tehran. The patients’ files and operation notes were reviewed for demographics, medical history, physical examination, referral time, mechanism of injury, hospital stay, level of education, and intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization. Results: 398 patients with orthopedic trauma were referred to the hospital with a mean age of 40.85 ± 21.03 years. 317 patients (79.65%) were men. The peak referral time was between 12 AM and 12 PM. A road traffic accident was the main cause of orthopedic trauma (39.4%). The mean days of hospital stay were 6.29 ± 5.36 days. The waiting time for surgery and days of hospital stay were related to the fracture site (high in lower extremity fractures) and older age. Conclusion: Trauma in northern Tehran is primarily caused by motor vehicle accidents and falls, respectively. Patients with older age and lower extremity fractures need more time of hospitalization.

The spine, pelvis, and hip are three anatomic structures that tightly interact to create spinopelvic mobility and harmony. Orthopaedic surgeons, both spine and hip specialists, must have a complete awareness of this concept. Recently, the literature has placed great emphasis on paying attention to these parameters in the preoperative planning of the total hip arthroplasty (THA). We could distinguish between balanced and unbalanced pelvis and spine with spinopelvic parameters and therefore, we could diagnose the spinopelvic stiffness that is important in preventing complications following THA. This review briefly introduces the importance of spinopelvic parameters and their critical role in THA outcome. Treatment algorithms are also provided based on the most recent studies.

Background: Several treatment approaches are now considered to manage femoral nonunion following intramedullary (IM) nailing. Augmentation plating over a maintained IM nail was a successful treatment for femur fracture nonunion in recent years. We aimed to describe our experiences in evaluating the union of bone for these patients after plate augmentation with serial examinations and radiologic studies. Methods: This was a case study on 21 patients who had a nonunion or delayed union of the femoral shaft fracture (FSF) after IM nailing. After initial intervention, they were monitored for 20.4 months (range: 12-72 months). Results: A closed IM nail was used in 18 patients, while the other three patients were shown as non-IM nail cases with a dynamic hip screw (DHS) in one patient, an external fixator in one other patient, and plate fixation in another one that was planned for augmentation plating. After plating, appropriate union appeared in all patients. Fracture union took an average of 7 months ranging from 3 to 12 months. Conclusion: Augmentation plating for treating FSF nonunion with leaving the nail in place results in excellent and favorable clinical outcomes with the radiographic recovery of the nonunion site in all of the cases with no complication.

The skeletal system has a high healing capacity. A nonunion fracture occurs when the natural course of bone healing is impaired. Numerous local and systemic factors participate in the development of a nonunion fracture. Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), smoking history, obesity, and malnutrition are at risk for nonunion. Moreover, the major local risk factors for impaired bone healing are malalignment, infection, mechanical stability, and tissue loss. In this brief review, we discuss the definition, epidemiology, and diagnosis of nonunion. We further explain the major contributing factors which must be considered in patient selection for nonunion revision surgeries.

Background: Flexor tendon rupture is a common traumatic event that is treated with surgery. Delay in reconstruction can reduce the chances of successful treatment even the surgeon is forced to choose fuse surgery. Case Report: The study case was a 9-year-old girl who presented after months of traumatic injury with severe deformity of index finger and shortened flexor digitorum profundus (FDP). Although there was no suitable tendon, a plantaris tendon graft was prepared from her left leg. After one year, the range of motion (ROM) in the left hand was normal beyond expectation. Conclusion: Single-stage tendon graft repair surgery even in chronic cases with shortened tendon and severe deformity is a good method which is recommended for similar patients, especially in children.

Background: Intertrochanteric (IT) fracture is one of the most common fractures in adults. Dynamic hip screw (DHS) surgery is a surgical procedure for IT fracture treatment. This study evaluated the mortality rate and quality of life (QOL) among these patients one year after the surgery. Methods: This cohort study was conducted on 110 patients with IT fractures treated with DHS from 2017 to 2019. A questionnaire was completed for each patient before, during, and after surgery. Preoperative information included demographics, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), smoking, diabetes, variables such as IT fracture classification, injury mechanism, lateral wall, and the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) comorbidity classification. Tip-apex distance (TAD), nail position at the femoral head, and the amount of bleeding during the operation were achieved during and immediately after the surgery. The mortality rate was determined one year after the surgery, and the surviving patients were assessed by the 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) questionnaire. Results: The mortality rate among patients who underwent DHS was 31.81%. There was no significant difference between living and dead patients regarding demographic information, surgical techniques, and comorbidities. There was no association between patients regarding the average of all areas of physical, mental, and overall health and gender. There was no significant relationship between the mean of physical and mental health with the duration of hospital stay and the amount of bleeding during surgery. A history of diabetes, high blood pressure, and smoking in these patients was not associated with mortality and QOL. Conclusion: The patient’s age is the most important risk factor for mortality after the DHS surgery.

Background: This study aimed to present a rare case of a failed dynamic hip screw (DHS) used for fixation of intertrochanteric fracture sliding into the pelvis and to review the most common causes of DHS failure in order to prevent this from happening in the future. Case Report: A 68-year-old woman was referred to the orthopedics clinic with left hip pain and limping from 6 months ago. In our evaluation, she had DHS failure and intrapelvic protrusion. Conclusion: There have been several aspects of the previously described DHS failure. We performed a two-stage total hip arthroplasty (THA) for the patient with a good one-year follow-up in the present case.
