Abstract:
The clavicle is the most commonly fractured bone. Children with simple fractures are often referred to orthopedic surgeons by primary care physician to ensure adequate care. The objective of this study was to show that simple clavicle fractures have excellent outcomes and are within the scope of primary care physician’s practice. We performed a retrospective chart review of 16 adolescents with simple clavicle fractures treated with a sling. Primary outcomes were bony union, pain, and function. The patients with simple clavicle fractures had excellent outcomes with no complications or complaint

Abstract:
A simple method for including the effects of geologically realistic fractures on the seismic propagation through fractured rocks can be obtained by writing the effective compliance tensor of the fractured rock as the sum of the compliance tensor of the unfractured background rock and the compliance tensors for each set of parallel fractures or aligned fractures. The compliance tensor of each fracture set is derivable from a second rank fracture compliance tensor. For a rotationally symmetric set of fractures, the fracture compliance tensor depends on only two fracture compliances, one controll

These last elements represent the grid cells intersected by at least one fracture in the medium. Each fracture cell in the EFC approach present a continuum porous medium whose hydro

Abstract Purpose Olecranon fractures are common and typically require surgical fixation due to displacement generated by the pull of the triceps muscle. The most common techniques for repairing olecranon fractures are tension-band wiring or plate fixation, but these methods are associated with high rates of implant-related soft-tissue irritation. Another treatment option is fixation with an intramedullary screw, but less is known about surgical results using this strategy. Thus, the purpose of this study was to report the clinical and functional outcomes of olecranon fractures treated with an

Study Design: Retrospective cohort chart review study for surgically treated orbital fractures during 5 years. Results: A total of 173 patients (average age 41.6 years) were diagnosed with orbital fractures. Most were male with a ratio of 3.3:1. Most fractures were caused by assault (39.3%); 22.5% of the cases were bilateral. The left orbit (40.5%) was fractured more than the right. The orbital floor (97.1%) was the most common anatomic location and the maxilla (65.3%) was the most commonly invol

We examine how a mechanically-induced fracture network may influence geochemical reaction between shale and stimulation fluid used in hydraulic fracturing. Two different types of bedding-parallel fractures, a simple fracture between bedding planes and a damage zone with multiple fractures, were induced in the Whitby Mudstone (Early Jurassic) from the UK. Both fractured shales were subsequently reacted with stimulation fluid at 10 MPa and 100°C for about 2000 hours. pH increased from 2.1 to about 6 after 1000 hours of reaction in both shales, but pH increased slightly more rapidly by reaction i

Treatment of simple and complex patella fractures represents a challenging clinical problem. Controversy exists regarding the most appropriate fixation method. Tension band wiring, aiming to convert the pulling forces on the anterior aspect of the patella into compression forces across the fracture site, is the standard of care, however, it is associated with high complication rates. Recently, anterior variable-angle locking plates have been developed for treatment of simple and comminuted patella fractures.

Background/Objectives: Most metacarpal fractures are isolated, simple, closed, and stable fractures and located distally. They are often caused by accidental falls, strikes by humans, by objects or traffic accidents. The majority can be treated conservatively. When unstable, angulated, malrotated or shortened, a surgical fixation of these frequent fractures is needed. To treat simple, spiral, distal or shaft fractures, intramedullary Kirschner wiring (KW) or intramedullary compression screws (ISs) are used. We wanted to compare the outcomes of those two treatments. Methods: In a retrospective

Introduction: Bilateral scapular fractures are a very rare injury with only few cases reported in the literature. They are said to be consequence of a violent trauma to the upper part of shoulder or as a result of electrocution or seizures. Glenoid involvement or open scapular fractures are one of the indications for operative treatment in these injuries, in other cases, simple immobilization is sufficient to obtain good results. Here, we report a case of a bilateral scapular fracture following an epileptic seizure, discussing the mechanism and outcome of conservative treatment. Case Report: A

We applied the generalized multiscale finite-element method (GMsFEM) to simulate seismic wave propagation in fractured media. Fractures are represented explicitly on a fine-scale triangular mesh, and they are incorporated using the linear-slip model. The motivation for applying GMsFEM is that it can reduce computational costs by using basis functions computed from the fine-scale fracture model to simulate propagation on a coarse grid. First, we apply the method to a simple model that has a uniform distribution of parallel fractures. At low frequencies, the results could be predicted using a ho
