the fracture fragments easily become displaced in the early period of cast immobilization. The fracture must be watched closely for displacement if nonoperative treatment is elected. If the fracture becomes displaced, it has a great propensity for nonunion because the fracture surface of the condyle...
The most common ankle fracture is the isolated trans-syndesmotic fibula fracture [1]. It is also known as a Weber B or type 44B under the AO (Association for the Study of Internal Fixation) and OTA (Orthopaedic Trauma Association) classifications [6,7,8,9]. For AO 44-B ankle ...
By adhering to the described criteria more than 90% of all isolated nondisplaced fractures of the distal fibula can be managed nonoperatively with excellent results.doi:10.1007/s00113-021-00960-5Andreas BaumannDer Unfallchirurg
Objective To study the effect of percutaneous autologous red bone marrow transplantation for the nonunion and delayed union of middle and distal tibial fractures.Methods 23 cases were enrolled,of which 18 cases were delayed union and 5 cases were nonunion.The autologous red marrow was injected into...
Nonunion following a proximal humerus fracture is relatively rare, but it can occur. Norris et al. defined a nonunion of the proximal humerus as one that has not healed after 3 months (Norris et al., 1990). Nonunion usually develops in fractures that are displaced, but they can occur in...

Cost efficiency is in the favor of non-locking plates.CONCLUSION:Non-locking constructs are as effective as locking constructs in the treatment of displaced distal fibula fractures at a substantially lower cost. High-quality randomized controlled trials are needed in the future to verify the finding...
