Abstract : Scrotum and penis can be injured by degloving or penetrating injuries. Degloving injuries look devastating but are generally free of infection and heal with satisfying results. Review of literature revealed single stage for partial and staged procedures for the treatment of complete avulsion of penis and scrotum. A cas..

Abstract : Full urinary bladder is prone to intra-peritoneal rupture following blunt abdominal trauma. It is usually diagnosed early due to frank hematuria. Review of literature has revealed few cases of delayed presentation of bladder injury presenting as acute pseudo renal failure. Each of the cases has a pointer towards inhere..

Abstract : Introduction A subarachnoid haemorrhage is defined as bleeding into the subarachnoid space. It is usually caused by the rupture of an intracranial aneurysm, although it has other causes including trauma and malignancies. The main factors that increase the likelihood of a subarachnoid haemorrhage are excessive alcohol c..

Abstract : This is a retrospective analysis of 84 patients who presented to the Victoria Infirmary, Glasgow with the initial complaint of head injury between the calendar months of August 2005 and August 2006. 84 patients were analysed. 96.4% had a GCS documented on arrival, 92% were admitted for observation, the mean age was 52...

Introduction: Femoral shaft fractures are relatively rare but severe injuries in children that frequently require hospital admissions and prolonged rehabilitation. These fractures account for less than two percent of all paediatric fractures and have an annual incidence of approximately 19 per 100,000 [1-4]. The injuries are more co..

Abstract : Objective:A retrospective review of 59 supracondylar femoral fractures occurring in 56 children between1991 and 2004 (14 years) was performed to assess treatment methods and outcomes.Design:Patient ages ranged from 1month to 15 years, with a mean of 3.2 years (median 1.5 years). There were 6 high-energy injuries and 34..

Abstract : Supra-condylar humerus fractures with extension into shaft are difficult to treat and typically require open anatomical reduction and internal fixation. Here we describe our experience treating distal humerus fractures using a triceps splitting approach with bicolumnar locking plate fixation...

Abstract : Treatment decision of displaced proximal humeral fractures is based on bone quality, fracture pattern, degree of displacement and patient profile. The AO/ASIF fracture classification helps in guiding treatment. Nonsurgical treatment consists of sling immobilisation. Surgical options include closed reduction and percuta..

Abstract: Colles’ fracture is the most common of the distal radial fractures. There are many classifications and varied treatment options, with variable results. Various studies with short-term and long-term results of treatment of Colles’ fracture have correlated deformities with loss of function. This prompted us to undert..

Abstract : Here is presented a case of a penetrating injury to the knee due to a garden power tool. This injury is the first to be described in the literature of a garden strimmer resulting in a penetrating foreign body within the knee joint. The root cause of this injury proved to be an ill advised do-it-yourself modification to..
