Abstract:
A new method of operative treatment for hallux valgus consists in a derotational osteotomy of the first metatarsal bone and adductorotenotomy, that allows a correction of the deformity without an operation on the first metatarsophalangeal joint. A total of 67 patients were operated upon (81 operations). Late results were followed up in 48 patients (59 operations). Excellent and good results after the operation were noted in 47, satisfactory-in 10 and poor-in 2 observations. The operation is thought to be indicated in marked deformities.

01:27Fractures: Bone Repair
Treatment for a fracture is based on the type of break, the bone affected, and the patient's age.
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...

01:28Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...
