Patients and methods: Between January 2021 and December 2022, a total of 29 patients (20 males, 9 females; mean age: 34.6±20.2 years; range, 14 to 82 years...

Background: The number of immigrant children admitted to public sector healthcare facilities is increasing. However, comparatively few studies investigated its effects on health systems, especially in the orthopedics discipline. This research investigates if there is a significant difference in admission to orthopedics and traumatology outpatient c...

Aims: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a common multifactorial pediatric disease. Physical examination and ultrasonographic findings are used in the screening. The severity of DDH in 0-6 month-old infants is determined by Graf classification. The severity of DDH and the age of the patient before treatment have been shown to be among the...

Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia (SED) accompanying with congenital joint dislocations; is a genetic disease with different subtypes that progress with multiple dislocations. It occurs due to a mutation in the CHST3 gene. This syndrome requires long and cascading surgeries, which presents with short-bodied dwarfism, joint dislocations and range of moti...

Hastalar ve yöntemler: İleriye dönük randomize olarak planlanan çalışmaya, ÖÇB yırtığı nedeniyle cerrahi uygulanan 150 hasta (tamamı e...

Background Oxidative stress occurs as a result of the disruption of the balance between the formations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defense mechanisms during the conversion of nutrients into energy. Increased body oxidative stress has been reported to be involved in the etiology of several degenerative and chronic diseases. We h...

Amaç: Gelişimsel kalça displazili (GKD) hastaların tedavi sürecinde serum prolidaz aktivitesinin oksidatif-nonoksidatif durumlarda takip edilerek, tedavi ve takip parametresi olarak serum prolidaz aktivitesinin kullanımını araştırmayı amaçladık. Materyal ve metod: Prospektif olarak gerçekleştirilen bu çalışma, 0-6 ay arasındaki 30 GKD’li bebek ve 0...

The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the primary soft-tissue stabilizer of the patellofemoral joint. Among the patellofemoral instability surgery options, MPFL reconstruction is the most preferred soft-tissue procedure. There is no gold-standard surgical treatment method in MPFL reconstruction, and many surgical methods have been described....

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is one of the most important complications after closed reduction and spica cast application in developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) treatment. This study aims to put forth the impact of closed reduction age and other factors which can cause AVN. Inclusion criteria of the study were: closed reduction...

Objectives In complex clubfoot, equinus, varus of the heel, forefoot adduction, and supination are more severe than in typical clubfoot. The feet are short and stubby, with deep creases above the heel and on the plantar surface. To successfully treat this subgroup of patients, orthopaedic clinicians must be able to recognise the clinical characteri...

Background: We aimed to investigate serum prolidase activity and to investigate its association with oxidative-antioxidative status in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods: Oxidative status parameters, including lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH), total oxidant status (TOS), and the oxidative stress index (OSI), and antioxidat...

Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumors which are mostly seen in the metaphysis of distal femur, proximal tibia, and proximal humerus. As arising from flat bones such as scapula is a rare case, intra-articular osteochondroma is also rare. When the literature is searched it appeared that the scapula and shoulder joint are an uncommon...
