AB Diaphyseal humerus fractures in the pediatric population have dynamic treatment strategies that depend on injury pattern, mechanism, patient skeletal maturity, and size. Treatment strategies include closed reduction with various immobilization techniques, flexible nails, uniplanar or multiplanar external fixation, or plate osteosynthesis.

In the United States, women comprise 16% of orthopaedic surgery residents, 4% of fellows, and 6% of practicing orthopaedic surgeons. The underrepresentation of women in surgical subspecialties may be because of lack of early exposure to female mentors. Conference speaker roles are important for visibility.

Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is one of the most successful and frequently performed procedures in the United States. The number of these procedures is projected to continue growing rapidly in the coming years, and with it comes the demand for more sophisticated perioperative risk and complication assessment.

Meticulous arthrotomy closure during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is essential to preserve quadriceps strength and maintain proper patellar tracking. We recently encountered a subset of patients referred with anterior knee pain, a palpable retinaculum defect, and quadriceps weakness.

Despite standard use of chemoprophylaxis, 30-day incidence of venous thromboembolism after geriatric, those older than 60 years, femur fracture surgery is reported to be up to 10%. Missing one dose of enoxaparin has been proven to increase the risk of developing venous thromboembolism.

The purpose of this study is to identify the risk factors for prolonged opioid use after surgery in geriatric hip fracture patients and the effects of prolonged use on mortality and readmission rates.

Lack of consideration for risk-based assessments that inform osteoporosis treatment decisions may contribute to disease burden. In this study, we examined the prevalence of patients at very high risk of fracture and evaluated real-world treatment practices for these patients.
