What are the main claims of the paper and how important are they?
Heading and procedure do not match.
Are these claims novel? If not, please specify papers that weaken the claims to the originality of this one.
Few case reports are seen in literature
Are the claims properly placed in the context of the previous literature?

Yes
Do the results support the claims? If not, what other evidence is required?

Radiographs could have given more information
If a protocol is provided, for example for a randomized controlled trial, are there any important deviations from it? If so, have the authors explained adequately why the deviations occurred?

Yes
Is the methodology valid? Does the paper offer enough details of its methodology that its experiments or its analyses could be reproduced?

Yes
Would any other experiments or additional information improve the paper? How much better would the paper be if this extra work was done, and how difficult would such work be to do, or to provide?

Pictures of casting and how the two pieces interlocked will explain the procedure batter.
Is this paper outstanding in its discipline? (For example, would you like to see this work presented in a seminar at your hospital or university? Do you feel these results need to be incorporated in your next general lecture on the subject?) If yes, what makes it outstanding? If not, why not?
No
