Engagement in weight-bearing activity decreases with age, thus in this study we compared bone geometry changes between weight-bearing (tibia) and non-weight-bearing (fibula) leg bones in three different age groups of women. Magnetic resonance images of the right leg were acquired in 9 young (...
These results suggest that more aggressive operations should be considered in men with GCTB in the proximal fibula. Materials and Methods Patient Selection. Between March 2000 and February 2015, patients with primary GCTB around the knee, including the distal femur, proximal tibia, proximal ...
Pregnant C57Bl/6J females received 5% ethanol in their drinking water during gestation from day 0. Fluid intake between control (water-only) and alcohol-exposed females was unchanged. All mice utilised in these studies were kept in controlled conditions at the University of Brighton. All tissue i...
Generally a broken ankle is referred to as an ankle bone fracture, where there is a break in one or more of the ankle bones, including the tibia, fibula, talus and calcaneus. However, a sprained ankle is caused when there is damage inflicted to the ankle ligaments as a result of stretch...
From a large dataset of 333 paediatric CT scans, we extracted three-dimensional torsional, angular, and linear measurements from the pelvis, femur, and tibia/fibula. Sex differences in linear measurements were observed in bones of children aged 13+(around puberty), but femoral and tibial torsion...
patella and fibula were first marked and removed, creating a model of only the tibia (Figure 2A). All fracture fragments were then segmented, so that each fragment was displayed with a separate color (Figure 2B). The fracture fragments were reduced and after a satisfactory reduction, the impla...
Hip range of motion was measured using the bent knee fall out (BKFO) test and internal rotation (IR) in a position of 90° of hip flexion as described previously [10,26,31]. BKFO was measured as the distance between the most distal point on the head of the fibula and the surface ...
