Fractures: Bone Repair01:27

Fractures: Bone Repair

5.4K
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...

Force Classification01:22

Force Classification

2.4K
Forces play a crucial role in the study of physics and engineering. They are essential in describing the motion, behavior, and equilibrium of objects in the physical world. Forces can be classified based on their origin, type, and direction of action.
Contact and non-contact forces are two of the most widely used categories of forces. As the name suggests, contact forces require physical contact between two objects to act upon each other. Examples of contact forces include frictional,...

Classification of Neurotransmitters01:30

Classification of Neurotransmitters

5.3K
Neurotransmitters play a crucial role in the communication between neurons in the autonomic nervous system. Neurons in the autonomic nervous system can be cholinergic or adrenergic depending on the neurotransmitters synthesized. Cholinergic neurons use acetylcholine as their primary neurotransmitter. This includes all the preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic and pre- and postganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic nervous systems. In addition, neurons of the somatic nervous system also use...

Classification of Leukocytes01:30

Classification of Leukocytes

5.8K
Leukocytes are classified into two groups based on the presence or absence of cytoplasmic granules. Granular leukocytes, which contain granules, belong to the myeloid lineage and are divided into three subtypes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. These cells are roughly spherical and characterized by the granules in their cytoplasm.
Neutrophils are the most abundant type of granular leukocytes, comprising 50-70% of all leukocytes. They feature small, evenly distributed granules and a...

Classification of Illness01:17

Classification of Illness

8.7K
The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

Classification of Bones01:18

Classification of Bones

9.9K
The bones of the human skeletal system are of varied shapes, sizes, and functions. They can be classified based on their shape and function into four major classes: long bones, short bones, flat bones, and irregular bones. Some classifications include a fifth type, the sesamoid bones, as a separate class, whereas others categorize them under short bones.
Long and Short Bones
The appendicular skeleton, particularly the upper and lower limbs, is primarily made of long and short bones. The...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Acetabular periprosthetic fractures are increasing due to high-energy trauma.
  • Reconstruction of these fractures with existing hip arthroplasty is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To classify periprosthetic acetabulum fractures.
  • To propose a treatment algorithm for these fractures.

Main Methods:

  • A multicentric study of 24 surgically treated acetabular periprosthetic fractures.
  • Patients aged 56-90 years treated between 2010 and 2017.
  • Various surgical interventions including ORIF, acetabular ring fixation, and cup revision were employed.

Main Results:

  • 22 out of 24 cases showed stable implants and good bone integration at 12-month follow-up.
  • One case of dislocation and one case requiring explantation were noted.
  • No further surgical procedures were needed in most cases.

Conclusions:

  • A simple, memorable classification system is proposed with prognostic and therapeutic value.
  • Implant stability and fracture timing (intraoperative vs. postoperative) are key predictors.
  • CT is crucial for evaluating postoperative fractures to guide treatment.
