In a prospective study of stress fractures the hypothesis that a shock-absorbing orthotic device worn within military boots could lessen the incidence of stress fractures was tested. The incidence of metatarsal, tibial, and femoral stress fractures was lower in the orthotic group, but only the latter difference was statistically significant. The time of onset and the location of stress fractures between orthotic and nonorthotic users did not differ. These findings suggest that the incidence of femoral stress fractures, which are the most dangerous type of stress fracture because of their high risk of developing into displaced fractures, can be reduced by an orthotic device.

ABSTRACT A prospective study conducted over a period of 2 years at a tertiary care hospital on all patients who underwent total laryngectomy to study the complications of the surgeries, their possible etiology. Laryngectomy is one of the most frequently done oncological surgeries in this part of the world, with high incidence of morbidity. Through improved techniques and preand postoperative protocols the incidence of complications have reduced, none the less they occur. Aim of the present study is to note the incidence of complications and their management in our setup. How to cite this article Reddy SL, Reddy SD, Prasad AVVSL.
