Using Trident distal radial locking plate to fix the fracture of distal radius volar rim Open
Background: The volar locking plates have been widely used in a variety of distal radius fractures, but they still have several limitations when dealing with small fragments located around the watershed line with widely reported complicati…

Popliteal artery occlusion concomitant with a tibial plateau fracture and posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fracture Open
In acute trauma, posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury may occur concomitantly with a bony fracture and be easily overlooked. A popliteal artery injury associated with a tibial plateau fracture and PCL avulsion fracture is rare. Missed …

The advantages of adding rib fixations during VATS for retained hemothorax in serious blunt chest trauma – A prospective cohort study Open
Adding rib fixation during VATS in the management of retained hemothorax can contribute to shorten whole treatment courses. Rib fixation can also reduce pain, thus reducing dependence on analgesics.
