Prevention and eradication of infections is a difficult task and incomplete treatment can lead to devastating complications. Treatment protocol involves wound debridement in cases of osteomyelitis and peri-prosthetic infections, primary internal fixation of the open fracture and application of calcium sulphate augmented with antibiotics, is a line of treatment in most of the cases. Aim: To study and analyse the effect of calcium sulphate augmented with antibiotics in orthopaedic practice. Materials and Methods: Patients were admitted in Mallya Hospital, Bangalore in between June 2018 to December 2019. Sample size of 30 was calculated based on the formula. Patients with diagnosis of osteomyelitis, peri-prosthetic infection and open fracture were included in the study. The patients were recruited to the study after due consent. Clinical history was taken and patients were examined, laboratory parameters (TC, ESR, CRP) were taken preoperatively and radiological examination done. Patients were followed up with laboratory parameters (TC, ESR, CRP), radiographs for resorption of calcium sulphate and bone healing at 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively. Results: Minimum age of the patient was 15 years and maximum 83 years, 2 patients were lost to follow up, 21 males and 7 female patients. Cases were divided depending on the type. Postoperatively laboratory parameters with statistical significant P values in cases of osteomyelitis, peri-prosthetic infection, open fracture seen in TC, ESR and CRP are as follows, osteomyelitis (0.016,0.011, <0.001), Periprosthetic infection (<0.001, <0.001,<0.001) and in open fractures (<0.001, 0,003,<0.001). Calcium sulphate resorption was assessed along with bone healing. Average Calcium sulphate re-sorption period was 6 weeks and average bone healing time was 6 months in fracture and cases with the bone void formation. There was statistically significant difference between all the groups when compared pre and postoperatively. Conclusion: We concluded that antibiotic impregnated Calcium sulphate plays an important role in tackling the infection when used locally at the site of infection; it helps in wound healing and bone healing.","PeriodicalId":151163,"journal":{"name":"National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121810394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has led to the increased accidental injuries to the knee joint, a major contributing factor to Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using quadrupled semitendinosus and gracilis tendon autograft with using endobutton for femoral tunnel fixation and in the tibial tunnel with hybrid fixation using suture disc and anchored with a cancellous screw and washer or interferential screw is a relatively new technique. We have undertaken this study to analyze the postoperative outcome in our experience with this procedure. Methods: This was a prospective study of consecutive patients with ACL injury who underwent Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction in our institution using quadrupled semitendinosus and gracilis tendon autograft. Postoperatively, all patients were initiated on the same rehabilitation protocol. All patients were followed up for four to six months period at regular intervals using IKDC, LGS scoring systems and a subjective questionnaire. Functional assessment with hop test was done. Results: About 92% of the patients had a favourable outcome as per three scoring systems. All three scoring system had a very high correlation as evidenced by the Kendal-tau values ranging x from 0.464 to 0.923. Statistically, this was found to be highly significant (p value- 0.000 – 0.001). Using IKDC scoring, the results were normal in 14, nearly normal in 10 and abnormal 1. 4 patient (16%) presented with anterior knee pain. Sensory loss was noted in 3 patients (12%) at the end of 6 months following surgery. Swelling was present in 4 patients (16%).None were having any infection and FFD. Conclusion: We conclude that the functional outcome of arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using quadrupled semitendinosus and gracilis tendon autograft is excellent to good (92%). With proper patient selection and physiotherapy regimen, full occupational and recreational activities can be expected for most of the patients within four to six months of the procedure.","PeriodicalId":151163,"journal":{"name":"National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128886090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Humerus diaphyseal fractures occurs in young adults because of high velocity injuries like road traffic accidents, fall from height, assaults and heavy machinery injuries, humerus diaphyseal fractures occurs in old age patients because of simple falls due to osteoporotic bones. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of patients with humerus diaphyseal fractures. In all 26 patients were enrolled in the study, of which 13(50%) were treated with anterolateral approaches and the 13(50%) with posterior approaches. In this study we treated diaphyseal humerus fractures with open reduction and internal fixation by two different approaches, anterolateral and posterior, and compared results and functional outcome. Results: Out of all the 26 patients with diaphyseal humerus fracture 13 patients were operated with open reduction and internal fixation by plate osteosynthesis by anterolateral approach 10(38.46%) patients had excellent result, 1(3.84%) patient had good result and 3(11.53%) patients had poor result. And Out of all the 26 patients with diaphyseal humerus fracture 13 patients operated with posterior approach 9(34.61%) patients had excellent result, 4(15.38%) patients had good result and none had poor result. Conclusion: in our study we conclude that both approaches are equally effective for diaphyseal humerus fractures treatment in terms of fracture union, functional outcome and complications. Posterior approach to shaft humerus fracture is beneficial because with mobilization of radial nerve 76% of humerus shaft is exposed. In preoperative radial nerve palsy with diaphyseal shaft fractures posterior approach is better choice for nerve exploration. And anterolateral approach is better option for upper third and middle third diaphyseal humerus fractures and posterior approach is better option for distal third diaphyseal humerus fractures.","PeriodicalId":151163,"journal":{"name":"National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120846281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodology: Here, we included 25 consecutive patients with duration of low back pain for 1 month who were not responding to conservative OPD treatment, and also had no reason to suspect any underlying organic disease. Each patient was analyzed on the basis of history and physical examination and a base line X-ray was taken. Results: Here, mean age of patients is 39.8 years with female predominance. According to Q-score there are 13 out of 25 patients are of modrate category, 11 in severe cateogory and rest in extreme category. We further divide these patients into 2 types i.e concavity right side and concavity left side. There are 5 patient of former category and 1 of later. Conclusion: A back-pain questionnaire should be designed and framed according to the life style of the patient i.e. if the patient cannot read or understand the questionnaire than it should be framed in the local language and should be read by investigator. Clinical examination is also an important tool for assessment of patients especially to support and exclude destructive and compressive lesions and also neurological diseases.","PeriodicalId":151163,"journal":{"name":"National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122910744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main treatment of this type of fracture is reinstatement of the normal alignment and articular congruity. Conventional osteosynthesis is not suitable because distal tibia is subcutaneous bone with poor vascularity. Closed Reduction and MIPO with locking compression plate (LCP) has emerged as an alternative treatment option because it respects biology of distal tibia, maintains fracture haematoma and provides biomechanically stable construct, early mobilization, less complications and relatively higher rates of union. The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional and clinical outcomes of distal tibia fracture of patients, treated by internal fixation by minimally invasive plating osteosynthesis (MIPPO) technique with locking compression plate (LCP). Methods: 50 patients with distal tibia fracture with or without intra articular extension were treated in our department at Guru Gobind singh Medical College and Hospital, Faridkot by MIPPO with LCP and were prospectively followed for average duration of 6 months. The outcome was evaluated using American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score. Results: There were 50 patients in the study including 36 males and 14 female of mean age 38.4 years. The mean follow up period of our patients was 6 months. All fractures united at an average of 19.13 weeks (range- 16-24 to weeks) except two cases of non-union. There were 12 superficial wound infections which were treated with oral antibiotics and progressed to union and there were no failures of implants. . According to AOFAS score at 6 months, 6 cases had score of 31 to 70 and 44 cases had score of 71 to 100. Conclusions: Minimally invasive plating osteosynthesis (MIPPO) is an effective method of treatment for distal tibial fractures. The use of indirect reduction techniques and small incision is technically demanding as it is effective, minimally invasive, optimises the operation time, promotes early healing and reduces the incidence of infections.","PeriodicalId":151163,"journal":{"name":"National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131724289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
