Cut from the same cloth? investigating the personality of interventional and surgical cardiovascular specialists Open
Purpose Considering that the treatment of patients with complex vascular disease requires multidisciplinary collaboration in teams and personality traits can impact team dynamics, we investigated the personality structures of vascular surg…

The current role of elbow hemiarthroplasty compared to total arthroplasty in the treatment of distal humerus fractures in the elderly. Twice the trouble or half the hassle? Open
TEA and EHA demonstrate comparable MEPS outcomes, with EHA achieving better DASH scores. Complication and revision rates remain similar between the two. These findings suggest that EHA is similar to TEA in treating elderly patients with un…

Proximal humerus fractures in the elderly: is there (still) a role for plate osteosynthesis? Open
Introduction: Proximal humeral fractures (PHFs) are among the most common fractures in the elderly population resulting from low energy trauma. The primary aim of this review is to assess the role of primary locking plate osteosynthesis in…

Neuroticism is related to functional outcomes after surgically treated proximal humerus fractures Open
A higher level of neuroticism is related to worse functional outcomes after a surgically treated PHF.

Humeral Head Preservation after Neglected Glenohumeral Dislocation by Latarjet and Infraspinatus Remplissage—A Case Report Open
Background: Neglected anterior glenohumeral dislocations provide a challenging problem for physicians. For many patients with these injuries, reverse shoulder arthroplasty has been the treatment of choice, although the preservation of the …

Fibula allograft in complex three-part and four-part proximal humeral fractures in active patients, a matched case-control study Open
Additional support of the medial hinge in unstable PHFs with a locking plate in combination with a fibula allograft appears to create a more stable construct without compromising the viability of the articular surface of the head. The use …

Patient experience from a doctor's perspective: A case report concerning treatment, fracture healing and rehabilitation of multiple complex injuries due to a high energy motor vehicle collision Open
A 35-year old healthy male trauma surgery chief resident, suffered a high-speed motor vehicle collision. The patient sustained the following injuries: a Gustilo-Anderson grade 2 open comminuted intra-articular fracture of the left distal f…

The Clinical Outcomes of Operative Treatment Versus Conservative Treatment for Dancer’s Fractures: Protocol for a Retrospective Cohort Study Open
Background Fifth metatarsal fractures are one of the most common foot fractures, and 11% to 25% of such fractures are Dancer’s fractures (distal spiral fractures). Conservative therapy while wearing a cast and operative treatment have been…

The Floating Acromion: A Rare and Previously Unreported Injury Possibly Requiring Surgical Stabilization Open
Acromion fractures are increasingly seen as a postoperative complication following reversed shoulder arthroplasty. However, traumatic fractures of the acromion, usually caused by direct trauma, are rare. Therefore, the current literature l…
