Rebuilding the pelvis: advances in robotic-assisted management of complex pelvic fractures.

Computer assisted surgery (Abingdon, England)
Complex pelvic fractures are infamously challenging to fix surgically because of their fine anatomy and proximity to vital neurovascular structures. Traditional open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) improves stability but is complicated by exce...

A collaborative approach of finite element method and machine learning algorithms for biomechanical analysis of implants used in tibial shaft fractures.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Tibial fractures are among the most common complex orthopedic injuries. The mechanical strength and biomaterial properties of implants used in the treatment of such fractures directly affect the healing process. In this study, the mechani...

Combining radiomics of X-rays with patient functional rating scales for predicting satisfaction after radial fracture fixation: a multimodal machine learning predictive model.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Patient satisfaction after one year of distal radius fracture fixation is influenced by various aspects such as the surgical approach, the patient's physical functioning, and psychological factors. Hence, a multimodal machine learning pre...

Machine learning models to predict osteonecrosis in patients with femoral neck fractures undergoing internal fixation.

Injury
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to use machine learning (ML) to establish risk factor and prediction models of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in patients with femoral neck fractures (FNFs) after internal fixation.

Assessing screw length impact on bone strain in proximal humerus fracture fixation via surrogate modelling.

International journal for numerical methods in biomedical engineering
A high failure rate is associated with fracture plates in proximal humerus fractures. The causes of failure remain unclear due to the complexity of the problem including the number and position of the screws, their length and orientation in the space...

Teardrop Alignment Changes After Volar Locking Plate Fixation of Distal Radius Fractures With Volar Ulnar Fragments.

Hand (New York, N.Y.)
BACKGROUND: We assessed factors associated with change in radiographic teardrop angle following volar locking plate (VLP) fixation of volarly displaced intra-articular distal radius fractures with volar ulnar fragments (VUF) within the ICUC database....

A feasibility study of robot-assisted percutaneous reduction and fixation technique for treating posterolateral depression tibial plateau fractures.

Scientific reports
Posterolateral (PL)-depression fractures of the tibial plateau are difficult to manage. The aim of this study was: (1) to present our experience with a novel technique of robot-assisted percutaneous reduction and fixation and (2) to compare it with t...

A novel technology integrating robotics and 3D printing for closed reduction of tibia shaft fracture with MIPPO:A proof-of-concept study.

Medical engineering & physics
Less invasive fixation techniques, such as intramedullary nailing (IMN) and minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO), are now the preferred choices for treating tibia shaft fractures (TSFs). However, malreduction and radiation exp...
