Background: Prediction of hamstring tendon autografts is essential when planning a ligament reconstruction surgery. This is especially important in cases of multiple ligament reconstruction surgeries. This study was designed to predict the dimensions of 5-stranded hamstring grafts from anthropometric parameters in patients undergoing anterior cruci...

However, in some difficult extractions, long bone fractures may occur. Cesarean section further reduces the incidence of birth injuries, especially in a breech delivery. Man...

Bilateral distal radius fracture is a rare entity. There is no literature reporting a bilateral distal radius fracture in pregnancy. Fracture healing is influenced by hormones. Hormonal changes of pregnancy will affect the healing of a fracture. A 28-year-old female at 34 wk of pregnancy sustained a bilateral distal radius fracture after a self fal...

Introduction: Osteochondroma is the most common benign bone tumor representing about 15 % of all bone tumors and 45.3 % of the benign bone tumors. They commonly arise from the metaphysis of a long bone with most common sites being distal femur, proximal tibia or proximal humerus. The occurrence of osteochondroma in flat bones particularly the scapu...

Osteochondromas are the most common benign tumours of bone. These are most commonly seen on the metaphysis of a long bone, but they can arise from any bone which is preformed from cartilage. To best of our knowledge, very few cases of osteochondroma scapula have been reported in literature. We hereby report a very rare case of osteochondroma which...
