PURPOSE: The section for the skeletal trauma and sport's injuries of the European Society for Trauma and Emergency Surgery (ESTES) appointed a task force group to reach a consensus among European countries on proximal humeral fractures. MATERIAL/METHODS: The task force group organized several consensus meetings until a paper with final recommendations was confirmed during the ESTES Executive Board meeting in Berlin on 25 October 2018. CONCLUSION: The Recommendations compare conservative and four possible operative treatment options (ORIF, nailing, hemi- and total reverse arthroplasty) and enable the smallest common denominator for the surgical treatment among ESTES members...

BACKGROUND: The limited evidence available on the diagnosis and treatment of olecranon and prepatellar bursitis indicates nationally varying treatment approaches. Therefore the aim of this study was to survey the current treatment concepts of olecranon and prepatellar bursitis in Austria. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An online questionnaire comprising of demographic data, questions regarding diagnostics and differentiation between septic bursitis (SB) and non-septic bursitis (NSB) as well as two case reports for therapy appraisal were sent to members of the Austrian Society of Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Surgery (ÖGO) and the Austrian Society of Traumatology (ÖGU)...

BACKGROUND: Spine injuries, a common component in polytrauma, are relatively rare in pediatric patients. Previous studies mainly described injuries to the cervical region, whereas information of injury patterns to the thoracic and lumbosacral region lack in the current literature. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and characteristics of polytraumatized children and associated spine injuries in different pediatric development ages. METHODS: A cohort review of all pediatric patients with the diagnosis of polytrauma and associated spine injury, admitted to a urban Level I trauma center, was conducted over an 18-year period from January 1992 to December 2010...

Based on biomechanical cadaver studies, anatomic double-bundle reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) was introduced to achieve better stability in the knee, particularly in respect of rotatory loads. Previously, the success of ACL reconstruction was believed to be mainly dependent on correct positioning of the graft, irrespective of the number of reconstructed bundles for which computer-assisted surgery was developed to avoid malpositioning of the tunnel. The aim of the present study is to compare rotational and translational stability after computer-navigated standard single-bundle, and anatomic double-bundle ACL reconstruction...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The use of ultrasonography in regional anesthetic blocks has rapidly evolved over the past few years. It has been speculated that ultrasound guidance might increase success rates and reduce complications. The aim of our study is to compare the success rate and quality of interscalene brachial plexus blocks performed either with direct ultrasound visualization or with the aid of nerve stimulation to guide needle placement. METHODS: A total of 160 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification I-III) scheduled for trauma-related upper arm surgery were included in this randomized study and grouped according to the guidance method used to deliver 20 mL of ropivacaine 0...

To validate the hypothesis that healing of fractures can be accelerated by oral administered L-arginine a guinea-pig model was chosen. A diaphyseal defect fracture was established in the right femur of each of the 32 small animals and stabilized. According to randomization groups the oral administration was realized (2 or 4 weeks medication / solvent). The following biomechanical variables were measured after 4 weeeks in 32 right femora and the corresponding uninjured left femora. The measurement for the healed femur was individually compared with that of the uninjured femur in each animal; bending, force (necessary for refracture) and energy (necessary for refracture)...

A 45-year-old homeless male patient did not return for follow-up for routine removal 72 days after an external fixator had been placed for a grade II open fracture of the proximal tibia. Ten years later, he was accidentally referred to our institution for newly incurred fractures of the femoral neck on the same side and also for an opposite-side medial malleolus fracture. The patient was still homeless, with signs of poor personal hygiene, but the original external fixator was in place. Union of his previous proximal tibia fracture had occurred, and there were no signs of any pin-tract infection...

BACKGROUND: The known biological activities of nitric oxide suggest a role in bone healing. We hypothesized that L-arginine, a source of nitric oxide, expedites the healing process of stabilized diaphyseal defects. TYPE OF STUDY: Prospective blinded animal study. METHODS: Using a guinea-pig model, a 7 mm diaphyseal and periosteal defect was produced in the right femur and splinted intramedullary with a 1.4 mm K-wire. The guinea pigs (n = 44) were treated orally in three parallel groups: two treatment groups received high doses of L-arginine (one group for 2 weeks and the other for 4 weeks) and a control group received vehicle only...

Prospectively, 119 patients were pursued clinically and by follow-up-arthroscopy for the occurrence of a "cyclops syndrome" after ACL reconstruction with a patellar tendon autograft, augmented by LAD. Twenty-one patients showed nodular formations. Ten of these (group 1) developed early clinical evidence of a "cyclops syndrome" with a mean extension deficit of 19 degrees before follow-up-arthroscopy, on average 5.9 months after the index operation. The nodular formations found and excised during débridement had a hard consistency...

Long-term clinical results and short-term arthroscopic and microscopic findings from two augmented reconstruction procedures for the ruptured anterior cruciate ligament are reported. The braided polypropylene ligament augmentation device (Kennedy model) was used with temporary double-end fixation in 279 patients to augment the attachment of the anterior cruciate ligament after acute proximal rupture and in 315 patients to augment a bone-tendon-bone autograft, mainly after chronic instability. Check arthroscopy was performed and the metal fixation hardware was removed after a mean of 11 months...

In an experimental study various synthetic augmentation devices for knee ligament surgery were tested in a servo-mechanical universal tensile testing machine under uniaxial loading. Two tests were done to elucidate the mechanical behaviour: stress relaxation and stress-strain relationship. Regarding the point of failure or rupture, the strongest ligament was the Trevira at 1800 N, followed by the 8-mm-wide Kennedy LAD at 1720 N. At a working load of 500 N the Gore-tex band, the Trevira, and the Kennedy-LAD stretched by between 2% and 3%...
