The fracture of the comminuted type has a prevalence of 30 to 50 % when related to the affecting mandibular bone. They are characterized by the presence of multiple bone involving several lines of fracture, resulting in small fragments within the same area. Treatment modalities for the management of comminuted mandibular fractures include closed reduction, external pin fixation, internal wire fixation, and open reduction and internal fixation using miniplates, titanium mesh tray and screws. The following case report highlights open reduction and internal fixation of a comminuted mandibular fracture in a 24-year-old male patient. The patient treated with open reduction and with a reconstruction plate followed by a short period of maxillomandibular fixation.

Introduction: Femoral neck fractures (FNFs) in young adults are relatively uncommon emergency that requires early diagnosis and management possible to prevents joint complications. Case Report: A 24-year-old male presented with a right hip pain for 3 months after a heavy physical exercise during military training. The imaging exhibited a transcervical FNF with displacement and a potential of avascular necrosis (AVN). The patient was managed by Open reduction and internal fixation through surgical hip dislocation (SHD) and bone grafting from the right iliac bone. The patient returned to his full military services 14 weeks following the surgery and was followed for 3 years without any symptomatic or functional problems. Conclusion: SHD could be one of the surgical options hired in the management of late presentations of FNFs in young adults with high suspicion of AVN. Keywords: Femoral neck fracture, open reduction and internal fixation, surgical hip dislocation.

Open reduction and internal fixation of mandibular fractures by intraosseous wiring in conjunction with intermaxillary fixation remains the mainstay of mandibular fracture treatment despite the availability of newer methods. The principles of treatment are reviewed, including indications for use of this technique and its advantages and disadvantages. Various surgical techniques are also reviewed and key points in their application emphasized.

ABSTRACT The management of mandibular fractures has evolved tremendously in the last few decades. Open reduction and internal fixation with malleable monocortical titanium plates is the standard technique worldwide. The paper reviews the current concept of mandibular fracture and discusses various method and modification for different sites and clinical situations. It also covers the treatment of pediatric and geriatric mandibular fractures. How to cite this article Rai S, Rattan V. Current Perspective in the Management of Mandibular Fractures.

The present case report describe Open Reduction & Internal Fixation of a Distal Radius Fracture With a Volar Locking Plate. Anatomical reduction & stable fixation of fracture with or without bone grafting, greatly reduces the incidence of post-traumatic osteoarthritis & stiffness. The accuracy of fracture reduction co- relates directly to the final outcome. A 34-year-old man fell on his right outstretched h&. He presented to the casuality & on physical examination, he was noted to have deformity about his right wrist with moderate swelling. There was no neuro-vascular deficit. Various treatment modalities have been developed for distal radius fracture fixation. Treatment options range from closed reduction & cast application to open reduction with plates & screws. Locking plates address intra-articular & metaphyseal comminution. Biomechanical studies comparing volar fixed- angle locking plates with that of conventional dorsal plates report volar fixed-angled plates to be superior in terms of their strength.

AbstractMandibular fractures are less prevalent in children as compared with adults. This is due to the anatomic differences present in children. Treatment of mandibular fractures ranges from conservative noninvasive treatment to open reduction and fixation of fracture site. A case of 12-year-old boy with left parasymphyseal fracture managed by closed reduction using a vacuum-formed splint is reported here.
