Abstract

This study aimed to examine the incidence rate of early reoperations following hip fracture surgery and determine the safety of resuming direct oral anticoagulants. Many orthopedic surgeons are reluctant to resume chronic anticoagulation therapy for patients after surgical intervention for hip fractures. One of the main reasons is the potential for reoperation in the case of surgical complications. We conducted a retrospective cohort study at an Academic Level I trauma center, reviewing the records of 425 geriatric patients (age > 60) who underwent hip fracture surgery between 2018 and 2020, including a subgroup treated with direct oral anticoagulants prior to hospitalization. The study assessed the incidence rate of complications requiring early reoperation. Out of the 425 patients, only nine (2%) required reoperation within a month after discharge, with two (0.5%) on chronic anticoagulation therapy. None of the reoperations were urgent, and all were performed at least 24 h after re-admission. The findings revealed a very low incidence rate of reoperations in patients who underwent hip fracture surgery, with no reoperations performed within 24 h of re-admission. Consequently, we believe that resuming chronic direct oral anticoagulants is a safe and effective approach when discharging patients after hip fracture surgery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (AHO) has been noted mainly in open fractures injuring soft tissue immunological defenses and in immuneincompetent patients. Osteomyelitis complicating closed fractures in immunocompetent adult patients is, therefore, a rare clinical entity with scarce literature. Case Report: We report a case of primary Staphylococcus aureus bacterial infection of a closed, humeral shaft fracture occurring in a previously healthy 28-year-old male patient. The patient was involved in a motorcycle accident and was admitted to the surgical ward with a chest drain. While hospitalized, a peak of fever was noted, but no source was found. Diagnosis of the closed fracture infection was noted on primary open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), and although the patient was treated with antibiotics, local osteomyelitis developed. Treatment including serial debridements utilizing gentamycin beads and an additional ORIF procedure until the full union was achieved. The patient regained full, painless, motion of the arm and shoulder. Conclusion: Although AHO complicating a closed fracture in immunocompetent adults is very rare, it should not be overlooked, and special attention should be sought in such cases. Meticulous debridement and rigid fixation are utmost for the eradication of infection and fracture union. Patients presenting with such infections should, therefore, be followed closely and treated promptly.

Abstract

Ongoing studies investigating fracture healing have uncovered and allowed investigators to gain a better understanding of where the variety of cells, which participate in this process, originate, and how they communicate as well as how they can be enhanced to successfully heal a fracture when the process has slowed or failed completely. This brief review will highlight some of the recent findings regarding the role the immune system in fracture healing and how these cells communicate with each other during the healing process. In addition, two 2 methods that have recently been shown to be promising techniques in supporting fracture when it stalls or reversing the process, when the fracture has failed to heal, will also be described.

Abstract

Objectives: Malreduction in the axial plane (malrotation) following tibial fracture surgery is often undiagnosed. A few clinical and radiographic methods have been proposed for measuring tibial rotation intraoperatively, yet have failed to match the accuracy of computed tomography (CT). The aim of this study was to develop radiographic tools for future intraoperative assessment of the tibial shaft rotation profile.Methods: The setting was a laboratory computerized analysis. Twenty lower limb CT scans were used to construct a three-dimensional (3D) model using AMIRA© software. A virtual 3D cylinder was implanted in the posterior condylar line and in the transmalleolar axis. The 3D models were used to simulate four standard knee and ankle plain radiographs. On each radiograph, four landmarks were depicted by two observers and their relation with the cylinder was measured and analyzed for accuracy and reproducibility. A cadaveric lower leg was implanted with two Kirschner wires. A CT scan was performed in addition to 2D fluoroscopy. The simulated radiographs and the fluoroscopy were compared for accuracy.Results: Measurement of the landmarks showed reliability in most of the knee anteroposterior and ankle mortise radiographs (coefficients of variation < 0.01 and = 0.01) respectively. Cadaveric measurement of the landmarks using real fluoroscopy and simulated radiographs were similar.Conclusions: To date, no reliable and common methods have been reported for the evaluation of tibial axial rotation. We propose a model in which simple radiographic landmarks can be used to calculate a 3D coordinate system that accurately assesses the axial rotation angle of the tibial shaft.

49. How resources affect management of periprosthetic fractures of the distal femur: perspectives from Israel, South Sudan, and South Africa.

Author

Abstract

Periprosthetic fractures of the distal femur have significant morbidity in both total hip and total knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA, respectively). The incidence of these fractures is growing, with the predominant mechanism of injury being a fall from a standing height and therefore considered fragility fractures. In many countries, improved public funding and a flourishing private health care sector, when coupled with increased life expectancy, translates to more older patients receiving both TKA and THA and therefore an increased prevalence of periprosthetic fractures and their associated complications. These fractures may occur below a long stem THA, above a TKA, or between the two (so-called "interprosthetic fracture"). We will outline fracture classification, risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment options, highlighting perspectives on treating these fractures in Israel, South Africa, and South Sudan. These countries represent differing access to resources, varied comorbidity factors, and differing health care systems. The points of difference and the points of similarity will be considered., Competing Interests: The authors confirm that they have collaborated on this article and have no consent declarations or ethical concerns. There are no reported conflicts of interest., (Copyright © 2023 The Authors. Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. on behalf of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association.)

50. Effects of Covid-19 on orthopaedic trauma services: early experiences in South Africa and Israel.

Abstract

South Africa and Israel have significantly different health systems. As South Africa is geographically 500 times as large and has a population nearly 7 times as large as the state of Israel, major differences in the challenges and subsequent handling of the pandemic between these countries were to be expected. South Africa's challenges included being under-resourced, particularly related to trauma, and severe and radical measures had to be undertaken that included extended strict lockdowns, bans on alcohol sales, and cancellation of the majority of the elective surgery during this initial period of the pandemic. Although Israel is much smaller and thereby theoretically easier to control, a complex political situation created difficulties and delays in controlling the pandemic after the initial response, leading to a second wave and additional lockdown. Although massively engaged initially, the Israeli trauma systems had continued functioning almost normally throughout the COVID-19 crisis., Competing Interests: The authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose., (Copyright © 2021 The Authors.
