Generally, the areas where these tumors arise are the bony pelvis and the large long bones (femur, tibia, and humerus). 一般来说,这些肿瘤发生的地方是骨盆和长骨(股骨,胫骨,肱骨 ) 。 ParaCrawl Corpus This involves inducing the bone above and below the joint (e.g. femur and tibia) to...
The area moment of inertia of the tibia in short-term spinal cord injury INTRODUCTION:Long-term spinal cord injury (SCI) profoundly alters skeletal structure and function. Approximately two years after the SCI, an equilibrium is reestablished between bone resorption and formation, but only after a...
Traumatic fractures of thetibiaare commonly seen. The tibia is a long, straight bone with little soft tissue covering. It is longer than the femur, and the fibula is virtually nonexistent (Fig. 25-3). Tibial fractures are usually either transverse or short spiral fractures, and they usually...
auf der Strasse et al Dovepress persistence or widening of the fracture line.2 The Ilizarov method3,4 is considered an excellent technique for treating segmental fractures of severe fractures in long bones (femur, tibia, and humerus), when accompanied by large bone losses or bone infection (...
Standard treatment protocols and algorithms for tibial disease are less specifically defined compared to those of the other appendicular long bones, and as such, the data are limited given short-term follow up, and the lower frequency of problems related to tibial disease. However, given ...
Long Bones:Long bones are a subtype of bone in the skeletal system that usually has two articular surfaces called an epiphysis, which is separated by a long region called the diaphysis, or shaft. The diaphysis is important because it houses the medullary cavity, which is a region where red...
Tibia and fibula are the two long bones located in the lower leg. The tibia is a larger bone on the inside, and the fibula is a smaller bone on the outside.
INTRODUCTION:Long-term spinal cord injury (SCI) profoundly alters skeletal structure and function. Approximately two years after the SCI, an equilibrium is reestablished between bone resorption and formation, but only after a significant loss of bone mineral content. Spontaneous fractures of long bones...
In general, the tibial shaft fractures are the most common long bone fractures and seen in 4% of the senior population. History and Physical Patient presentation and physical exam are the same for most tibia fractures. Patients with this injury present with the inability to bear weight and defo...
