jacent to an intramedullary nail. Crushed bone tissue might improve bioavailability of antibiotics when dealing with multiresistant bacteria in non-union healed fracture side. Furthermore, this approach was able to provide new bone formation in a limb resulting in full weight-bearing.Introduction Open fractures in children are uncommon and usually the result of a high-energy trauma. Open distal radius fractures are even more uncommon. In our clinic, we managed a pediatric open fracture separation of the distal radius due to hyper extension and axial load, with low-energy movement of the wrist. To the best of our knowledge, no other similar case or case series is published in literature. Case report Our case involved a 14-year-old male who had been pushing a heavy object during a basketball match. The patient presented at our emergency department with metaphysis of the distal radius protruding through a transverse volar laceration in the wrist. The patient was immediately taken to the operating room and underwent debridement and internal stabilization of the fractures. The wrist was observed for 18 months and no complication occurred. Conclusion Through this case report, we present an unusual type of injury that has never been described before; also, we show that the principles of treatment that stand for open fracture in adult patients can be used for children as well.Introduction Periprosthetic fracture is the most common cause of reoperation after resurfacing arthroplasty. The majority of fractures associated with this kind of arthroplasty are mostly subcapital fractures. Inter- and sub-trochanteric fractures after resurfacing arthroplasty are rarely reported, and there is no consensus regarding the treatment of such fractures. Case report We present the case of a patient in whom an intertrochanteric femoral fracture distal to a hip resurfacing implant was successfully managed by internal fixation with the use of a locking compression plate (LCP), after failed conservative management. We also discuss an in-depth literature review on the topic. Conclusion We believe that osteosynthesis is a better option than arthroplasty in the management of such injuries. Due to technical issues discussed in our paper, we believe LCP to be an optimal fixation device.Introduction Cervical spine injuries in the children are unusual, and an incidence rate of 1.5-3% of all the spinal fractures has been reported. The cartilaginous end plate between the dens and the body of the axis usually ossifies at the age of 5-7 years. This anatomical characteristic has been attributed to odontoid synchondrosis fractures in young children.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/mavoglurant.html  However, odontoid process fractures are rare in children and only few cases have been reported in literature. Case report We report a case of a displaced odontoid synchondrosis fracture in a 2-year-old girl with anterior subluxation of C1 over C2 vertebra. This was treated with a posterior atlantoaxial fusion using sublaminar wiring. Immediate post-operative radiography showed partial reduction of the displaced odontoid fragment on C2 body with residual step deformity with angulation at the fracture site. Follow-up at 1 year showed excellent remodeling. Conclusion Synchondrosis fractures of the odontoid are rare and usually found in children under 7 years of age. Most of these patients can be treated by external immobilization alone. However, in small children with significant displacement and angulation, posterior C1-C2 fusion is a better option providing more stability. Furthermore, one can expect significant remodeling of the fracture within this population.Introduction It remains controversial whether amputation or limb salvage is the best approach for mangled foot cases because there are no clear criteria for treatment. We report a case of successful limb salvage for a mangled foot, with good outcomes. Case report The patient was a 30-year-old man who sustained a crush injury to his left foot and ankle and lower legs in a car crash; he had severe open left foot and ankle fracture and bilateral open tibial shaft fractures. Blood flow was maintained by the posterior tibial artery, and the tibial nerve was intact. We stabilized the ankle using Kirschner wires on the day of injury. Plastic surgeons were consulted for early soft tissue coverage. Final fixation was performed 12 weeks after flap grafting; we grafted an autologous bone on the defect, according to the Masquelet technique. Four months after the final surgery, fullweightbearing gait was initiated. The patient is now capable of walking independently, with no pain, and is highly satisfied. Conclusions Limb salvage can be successfully performed even in a patient with a severely mangled foot. For successful salvage surgery with good outcomes, such patients should be managed by a team of experienced orthopedic and plastic surgeons from an early stage to achieve appropriate bone alignment and soft tissue coverage.Introduction Idiopathic Transient Osteoporosis (ITO) is a rare entity that may occur during pregnancy, usually manifesting in the third trimester and is considered a diagnosis of exclusion. When present in the hip, it is usually characterized by joint pain, claudicating gait, and osteoporosis of the femoral head with preservation of the joint space. These early clinical and radiological signs may be confused with those of aseptic necrosis, infection, or bone tumors, making it important to exclude these differential diagnoses. Complete resolution of this condition is usually prolonged and may take anywhere from 6 months to 1 or 2 years. Case report This article presents the case of a 48-year-old Caucasian pregnant woman who presented a non-traumatic left hip pain. After the exclusion of infectious and tumoral diseases, a diagnosis of a less probable transient idiopathic osteoporosis was suspected. Magnetic resonance imaging images after childbirth supported this diagnosis. She recovered clinically and imagiologically with no complications 2 years after delivery. Conclusion Rarely, hip pain during pregnancy can occur due to transient osteoporotic injuries in the proximal femur. It is more frequent during the third trimester and although it resolves spontaneously in the following months after childbirth, we should always be aware of these less likely diagnoses.
