Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to describe various aspects related to opioid use and storage in the setting of at-home pain management after cesarean deliveries among an Appalachian population. Methods Women who underwent cesarean delivery (January-June 2019) at an Appalachian institution were prospectively enrolled and administered a telephone survey seven (± 3) days post-discharge. Results Of the 87 women enrolled, 40 (46%) completed the survey; 92.5% were prescribed an opioid medication, most commonly oxycodone/acetaminophen 5/325 mg. A Kruskal-Wallis H test revealed a significant association between the severity of pain that interfered with normal daily activities and the number of pills consumed [χ2(2)=6.75, p=0.034]. More than 70% of the participants (28/40) had not safely stored or disposed of their unused opioid medications. Conclusion Our findings highlight the need for interventions to educate patients on how to appropriately use, store, and dispose of unused opioids.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) produced by the granulosa cells of ovarian follicles has been shown to correlate with ovarian reserve and is often measured for fertility therapies. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between serum AMH values and the clinical pregnancy (CP) rates of female partners with unexplained infertility undergoing intrauterine insemination utilizing varying ovarian simulation protocols. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study conducted among couples who underwent intrauterine insemination therapy over a period of four years at Charleston Area Medical Center, a tertiary care medical center in West Virginia, USA. Logistic regression was used to determine the best predictor of CP. RESULTS A total of 509 intrauterine inseminations resulting in 81 (15.9%) Cps were analyzed. The cycles with a CP had higher mean AMH values (3.7+3.5 vs. 2.2+2.1; p<0.001). The majority of patients were nulliparous (77.0%) with a mean age of 33.6+5.0 years. After including only patients with unexplained infertility (the predominate infertility diagnosis; n=255 (50.1% of the cycles)) and stimulation cycles >10, the final sample size for the analysis was 245/509=48.1%. Following a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, the optimal AMH cut-off point was 2.1 ng/mL with an area under the curve (AUC) equal to 0.61 and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of 0.55- 0.67 (p=0.002). The CP rate was significantly higher with the AMH >2.1 ng/mL (20.0%) compared to <2.1 ng/mL (10.0%; p=0.041). With Clomid/human gonadotropins/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger treatment, the CP rate quadrupled (odds ratio (OR): 4.6; 95% CI: 2.1-9.7; p<0.001). CONCLUSION This study indicates that higher AMH levels and a more aggressive ovarian stimulation protocol for intrauterine insemination therapy (IUI) have a better probability of resulting in CP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The opioid epidemic resulted in vast increase in neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS). To mitigate NOWS and opioid dependency among women, staff established a gender specific, patient driven, autonomy based, outpatient therapeutic substitution program. METHODS Prospective observational study of obstetric patients receiving prenatal care 7/1/2016-12/31/2019. Patients underwent universal urine drug screens to identify illicit drug use with dependency and offered addiction counseling with voluntary outpatient therapeutic substitution in an obstetrical-addictions combined clinic to achieve abstinence with oral Buprenorphine tapering protocol. Urine substance screening and cord blood testing were obtained at delivery. Birth outcomes compared among groups who achieved abstinence at birth, were successful at tapering, or continued opioid use. RESULTS Of 783 births, 165 (20.9%) demonstrated opioid use with 91 (55.2%) participating at some point in pregnancy in therapeutic substitution program. At birth, 14/94 (14.9%) patients completed the program and achieved opioid abstinence, 22/94 (23.4%) still enrolled and actively tapering. 57/94 (34.5%) patients were lost to follow-up, relapsed, or terminated due to non-compliance. Seventy-four of 67 (44.3%) opioid positive mothers chose not to enroll. Of 14 women who completed the program, 0 babies born with NOWS, compared to 11/22 (50%) still enrolled in program and actively tapering, 29/57 (50.9%) lost to follow-up, relapsed, or terminated due to non-compliance, and 28/74 (37.8%) never enrolled in program. CONCLUSION/IMPLICATIONS Outpatient therapeutic substitution with oral Buprenorphine with abstinence is possible in pregnant patients and results zero NOWS. More data are needed to confirm findings and explore methods for enhanced success in obtaining abstinence.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To ascertain the prevalence of Müllerian anomalies within an obstetrical population in relation to official hazardous waste sites designated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in West Virginia. METHODS Observational study of obstetric patients in a tertiary care center with uterine ultrasounds from January 2006 to June 2017. An Optimized Hot Spot analysis and Ripley's K- Function was constructed to ascertain if there is an association with environmental exposures. RESULTS The prevalence of Müllerian anomalies in our obstetric study sample was 0.9% (118/13,040). The most common were septate (47; 39.8%) and bicornuate (46; 39.0%). The distribution of Müllerian anomalies was non-random illustrated by Optimized Hot Spot Analysis locating several statistically significant zip codes of Müllerian anomalies in relation to zip codes that include EPA facilities. CONCLUSION The distribution of Müllerian anomalies was clustered in watershed areas along the Kanawha River in West Virginia that have been designated as EPA FRS Sites and Superfund Sites.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bony defect situations are a common problem in revision arthroplasty of the shoulder and are the cause of the complexity of the procedure. Aseptic and septic loosening as well as difficult implant removal can result in humeral and/or glenoid bone loss. PLANNING A careful preoperative imaging is needed to estimate the extent of the bony defect and to enable precise planning of the bone reconstruction and the required implants. However, the size of the defect needs to be re-evaluated intraoperatively after removal of the implant components and any larger defects have to be addressed appropriately. PROSTHESIS DESIGN While in the glenoid autologous bone grafts and, to a lesser extent, allogenic bone grafts are preferred, metallic augmented implants have recently become available to fill the glenoid bone defect. However, humeral defects are normally addressed with longer revision stems, possibly with allograft augmentation. The soft tissue loss in proximal humeral defects can be addressed with fixation techniques to improve function and reduce the risk of dislocation. Modern modular prosthesis designs allow prosthesis conversion while leaving bony, tightly integrated component parts on the glenoid or shaft. This review describes the preoperative diagnostic steps as well as techniques for revision surgery of the shoulder in the case of bone loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Congenital anomalies are the leading cause of infant death, with congenital heart (CHD) defects the most common type. The study objective was to evaluate the incidence of fetal CHD in a tertiary care medical center's obstetric population in West Virginia and map areas of possible environmental exposure. METHODS This was an observational study of patients with positive ultrasound screen for CHD from 1/1/2007-8/31/2016. An Optimized Hot Spot analysis and Ripley's K- Function was constructed to understand the effect of CHD in relation to proximity to chemical and coal extraction sites. RESULTS Of the 16,871 obstetric pregnancies, 206 (1.2%) had fetal CHD with ventriculoseptal defects the most common (88; 42.7%). The majority of cases of CHD followed the industrial watershed of the Kanawha River in West Virginia. Direct point source exposure suggests a relationship in cases of CHD within Kanawha River and surrounding areas. The observed K was significantly above the expected K across all 10 distance bands. The fourth distance band exhibited the larger difference at (37914), between the expected verses the observed K function. CONCLUSION Through spatial analysis, there appears to be a direct point source exposure for observed cases of f CHD along the industrial watershed of Kanawha County, West Virginia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stabilization of the humeral shaft and the restoration of shoulder function dependent on the osseous integrity of the prosthetic stem component. INDICATIONS In cases of a stable prosthesis stem, an isolated plate osteosynthesis is possible. Prosthesis stem replacement is indicated in cases of a loose stem. With sufficient bone stock of the proximal humeral segment, a change to a shorter humeral shaft component with subsequent plate fixation of the fracture is possible. If the bone stock is poor, conversion to a long revision stem is necessary. CONTRAINDICATIONS Inoperability of the patient due to serious comorbidities. Advanced age and low demands on shoulder function are relative contraindications for complex prosthesis replacements. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE Plate osteosynthesis can be done through an anterior or posterior approach, stem replacement only from anterior deltopectoral approach. When changing humeral shaft components, the loose shaft and all cement residues are removed, the fracture is reduced and, if possible, a shorter shaft is implanted with subsequent plate osteosynthesis of the fracture. When changing to a long revision stem, additional osteosynthesis with cerclages wires is usually sufficient. In case of poor bone stock, an additive autologous or allogenic bone grafting can be performed. An instable anatomical prosthesis with poor shoulder function may require conversion to an inverse prosthesis. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT In cases of an isolated plate osteosynthesis with an otherwise stable prosthesis, immediate active rehabilitation of the upper limb is advocated. When a prosthesis replacement and conversion to an inverse prosthesis is performed the shoulder is immobilized in 30° abduction for 6 weeks. Passive and after 3 weeks active-assistive shoulder movement up to 90° abduction and flexion is allowed. RESULTS In 40 patients with a periprosthetic humeral fracture, an isolated plate osteosynthesis was performed in 30 cases and a prosthesis replacement in 10 cases. Complications included 3 infections and 3 temporary radial nerve palsies. Revisions due to pseudarthrosis were necessary in 2 cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies revealed an increased prescription rate of opioids for elderly patients suffering bone fractures. To gain further insight, we conducted face-to-face interviews in the present study to compare the opioid intake between patients with low-energy fractures and patients suffering from internal diseases. METHODS In this case-control study, 992 patients, aged 60 years and older, were enrolled between March 2014 and February 2015. The interview comprised a fall and medication history, comorbidities, mobility and other risk factors for fractures. Odds ratios (OR) and a multiple logistic regression model were calculated. RESULTS The number of patients with pre-admission opioid intake in the last 12 months was comparable in the fracture (n = 399, 13.3%) and the control group (n = 593, 14.7% OR: 0.89, CI: 0.62-1.29). The number of patients with current opioid intake of short duration (<3 months) was similar in both groups (14% vs. 20%; OR: 0.66, CI: 0.23-1.93). Patients with opioid intake in the fracture group reported more frequently fatigue as an adverse event of opioid medication (58% vs. 30%; OR: 3.32, CI: 1.48-7.45). Patients with opioid intake showed more severe comorbidities and significantly decreased mobility compared to those without opioids. CONCLUSION Elderly patients internalized due to low-energy fractures did not take opioids more frequently than patients with internal admission, for both short (<3 months) and longer duration intake. Patients with opioid intake were generally in poorer physical condition. The risk of fracture might increase in patients suffering from fatigue as a side effect of opioid medication. SIGNIFICANCE This study is based on face-to-face interviews with patients, including details about side effects and fracture history, providing a more pronounced picture of the relation of opioid intake and risk of fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND How the shape of the glenoid defect being reconstructed influences stability in reversed shoulder arthroplasty has never been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to compare the reconstruction of two different shaped defects in reversed shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS Two groups (ten Sawbone scapulae each) of oblique- and rectangular-shaped glenoid defects were tested biomechanically. On the anterior half of the glenoid, bony defects (rectangular and oblique shaped) were prepared and reconstructed subsequently with a graft and reversed shoulder arthroplasty. As a control group, Sawbones without glenoid deficiency were used. In addition, these tests were reproduced in cadavers. FINDINGS In Sawbones, no significant difference in initial stability was found between the two groups (p>0.05). Additionally, in the cadaver tests no significant difference was found between the groups with different defects (p>0.05). During the preparation, macroscopic loosening of the oblique bone grafts was found in three cases after the performance of the reversed shoulder arthroplasty due to the lack of medial support. The localization of the highest micromotion were measured primarily between the scapula bone and the graft compared to the measured micromotions between glenoid implant and the graft. INTERPRETATION If the oblique-shaped bone graft was secured under the baseplate, the rectangular defect preparation did not show a significantly higher primary stability. However, the advantage of medial support in rectangular defects leads to more stability while placing the bone graft and baseplate during the surgical technique and should therefore be considered a preferable option.

Abstract
Rim defects of the anterior glenoid cavity are a main reason for residual shoulder instability after traumatic dislocation of the shoulder. These defects can be the result of a glenoid rim fracture or chronic glenoid erosion after repeated shoulder dislocations. Treatment concepts for these entities are entirely different. While in the acute fracture situation glenoid rim fractures can be treated operatively or non-operatively, augmentation of the anterior glenoid for stabilization of the shoulder should be considered if the defect exceeds 15-25% of the anterior glenoid. The purpose of this article is to summarize the diagnostics and indications for treatment of glenoid rim fractures. Radiological assessment and options for augmentation are reviewed for both acute fractures as well as chronic instability following an anterior glenoid rim defect.

Abstract
AIMS Our aim was to investigate the outcomes of patients with a displaced fracture of the glenoid fossa who are treated conservatively. There is little information in the literature about the treatment of these rare injuries non-operatively. PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed 24 patients with a mean age of 52 years (19 to 81) at a mean of 5.6 years (11 months to 18 years) after the injury. RESULTS At final follow-up, the mean Constant and Murley score was 79 points (18 to 98); the mean Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index score (WOSI) was 77% (12 to 100) and the mean Rowe score was 93 points (50 to 100). Fractures with little intra-articular displacement (≤ 3 mm) had an uneventful outcome. Those with intra-articular displacement of ≤ 3 mm had a significant better mean Constant and Murley score than those with displacement of ≥ 5 mm and/or a fracture gap of ≥ 5 mm. Poor clinical results such as nonunion and post-traumatic osteoarthritis were associated with displaced or angulated glenoid fragments and significant intra-articular displacement. CONCLUSION Glenoid fossa fractures with displacement of ≥ 5 mm should be treated surgically if the patient's condition allows. Displacement and angulation can lead to nonunion and a poor outcome if the degree of displacement results in a persistent fracture gap in the glenoid fossa or if the angulation of fragments leads to malunion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate associations between Doppler measurements and adverse outcomes in an obstetric population with high tobacco use. METHODS This retrospective study included patients with Doppler data (umbilical systolic/diastolic velocity ratios (S/D), uterine S/D, uterine left/right ratio index (RI)). Receiver operator characteristic curve analysis determined cut-off elevated Doppler indices. Stepwise logistic regression was used to predict adverse outcomes. RESULTS 338 of 745 patients (45.4%) had adverse outcomes. Doppler artery indices identified significant associations with IUGR, preeclampsia, low birth weight, pre-term birth and composite adverse outcome variable. An elevated Umbilical S/D was 2.1 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.5-2.9; p<0.001) times was more likely to have an adverse outcome. For left uterine artery S/D and nulliparity, the odds ratios were 1.8 (95% CI: 1.3-2.5) and 1.4 (95% CI: 1.0-1.9), respectively. CONCLUSION Umbilical and uterine left S/D indices and nulliparity are significant independent predictors of adverse outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Benign subcutaneous emphysema caused by a valve mechanism and subsequent air entrapment is rare. Less invasive treatment can be performed, but acute life-threatening infectious diseases should be ruled out before treatment; these include gas gangrene or other infections caused by gas producing bacteria. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively report on three patients with chronic wounds who developed benign subcutaneous extremity emphysema caused by valve mechanisms with subsequent air entrapment. Patient 1 had a chronic wound at his stump after a lower leg amputation years ago. Due to weight loading and unloading of the lower leg prosthesis while walking, air was sucked in and triggered subcutaneous emphysema. Patient 2 had a persistent fistula at his lateral thigh due to a chronic osteomyelitis and Girdlestone hip. Caused by the up-and-down movements of the femur during walking air was entrapped and led to emphysema. Patient 3 had a drain in his knee for development of a chronic fistula because of a persistent infection of his knee prosthesis. In extension of the knee, the drain was clamped in and air was entrapped during knee flexion and then seeped into the surrounding subcutaneous tissue. No signs of infection in the blood samples were present in two of the patients. None of the patients had fever and no gas producing bacteria were identified in the microbiological cultures. Only multisensitive Staphylococcus aureus was present in the wounds of patients 1 and 2. RESULTS Two patients were treated surgically. One patient was treated by fasciotomy plus debridement and irrigation of the wound. A second patient was treated by debridement of the Girdlestone hip, air evacuation and insertion of a drain. No sign of infection - such as necrosis or gangreneous tissue - was seen during these operations. In patient 3, the drain was removed in flexion of the knee and air was removed from the subcutaneous tissue through a separate, sterile needle punction. CONCLUSION There have been few published reports on benign subcutaneous emphysema caused by a valve mechanism. No standardised treatments exist, as it is initially difficult to distinguish this condition from an acute life-threatening infection. If a patient has a chronic wound at the location of the endoprosthesis or stump prosthesis after amputation, the possibility of benign air entrapment should be routinely considered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In recent years, new angle-stable plate implants with polyaxial screw direction were developed with the aim of an improved treatment of displaced 3- and 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus. There are only a few studies available about polyaxial implants in the treatment of 3- and 4-part proximal humerus fractures. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate clinical results and complications of open reduction and internal fixation of displaced 3- and 4-part fractures using a polyaxial plate. PATIENTS AND METHODS Within 51 months, 105 patients with a displaced 3- or 4-part fracture of the proximal humerus were treated with a polyaxial locking plate. The complications were evaluated and the Constant & Murley score was assessed and correlated with patient satisfaction ("very satisfied" to "not satisfied"). Additionally, the results were compared with those of monoaxial plates from the literature. Furthermore, the operative experience of the surgeons at the time of surgery was correlated with the objective results of the patients. RESULTS 65 patients (average age: 71.3 ± 11.4 years; average follow-up: 19,6 ± 9,8 month [10-44 month]) with a displaced 3- or 4-part fracture were re-examined retrospectively (female: n = 54; male: n = 11). Overall, there were 27 3-part fractures and 38 4-part fractures. The Constant and Murley Score was on average 62.1 ± 16.5 points and the complication rate was 26 %. The most frequent complication was screw perforation through the humeral head. Patient satisfaction with clinical outcome was high within the whole study group. 40 % of the patients were "very satisfied" with their shoulder function, 29 % were "satisfied" ("fair": 12 %, "not satisfied": 19 %). Additionally, the operative experience of the surgeons influenced the final clinical result. CONCLUSION In comparison to the literature we could not delineate better clinical outcomes or lower complication rates with polyaxial implants compared to monoaxial plates in 3- and 4-part fractures. Nevertheless, the majority of patients were satisfied with the clinical result in the context of age-related shoulder function. In addition, a close correlation could be detected between the degree of satisfaction and the objectively measured shoulder function. A high level of operative experience is required to avoid typical complications and to achieve a good clinical result.

Abstract
The objective of this article is not to present a scientific or systematic study, but to provide an initial framework for designing a training workshop to enhance health practitioners' (nurses, social workers, physicians, etc.) knowledge regarding substance abuse treatment and to decrease their bias toward substance-abusing women, particularly pregnant women in rural communities. We incorporated the 4 Transdisciplinary Foundations from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Competencies Model, with specific competencies targeted that related to provider bias. After the conference, 52 of the 70 participants completed a questionnaire to self-assess knowledge level and confidence in skill related to substance abuse management. Participant mean scores were statistically significantly higher following the conference than 1 week prior ( p < .001) in the area of "gender difference with substance abuse," moving from an average of 2.6 to 4.5 on a 5-point Likert scale. Our conference was successful in increasing attendees' knowledge about gender difference and substance abuse among pregnant patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The sales of recreational trampolines have increased during the past few years. Severe injuries are associated in part with trampoline sport in the domestic setting. Therefore, this study was conducted to confirm the hypothesis of an increase in trampoline-related injuries in conjunction with the increasing sales of recreational trampolines and to find out what kind of injuries are most frequent in this context. METHODS Between 01/1999 and 09/2013 all trampoline-related injuries of children (0-16 years of age) were assessed retrospectively. Only those cases were evaluated which described with certainty a trampoline-associated trauma. The fractures were considered separately and assigned to specific localisations. Additionally, accidents at home were differentiated from institutional accidents. RESULTS Within the past 13 years and 9 months trampoline-related injuries were seen in 195 infants. Fractures were present in 83 cases (42 %). The average age was 10 ± 3.4 years (range: 2-16 years). Within first half of the observed time period (7½ years; 01/1999 to 06/2006) 73 cases were detected with a significantly increasing number of injuries up to 122 cases between 07/2006 and 09/2013 (7 years, 3 months), which corresponds to an increase of 67 % (p = 0,028). The vast majority of these injuries happened in the domestic setting (90 %, n = 175), whereas only 10 % (n = 20) of the traumas occurred in public institutions. In 102 children (52 %) the lower extremity was affected and in 51 patients (26 %) the upper extremity was involved (head/spine/pelvis: n = 42, 22 %). The upper extremity was primarily affected by fractures and dislocations (n = 38, 76 %). At the upper extremity there were more injuries requiring surgery in contrast to the lower extremity (n = 11) or cervical spine (n = 1). CONCLUSION The underlying data show a significant increase of trampoline-related injuries within the past years. The upper extremity is the second most affected after the lower extremity, but is more associated with fractures in contrast to other localisations and had to be operated on the most. Because of the increase of recreational trampolines within past years an increase of trampoline-associated injuries has to be expected in the future. The security guidelines should be followed exactly and the infants should be under supervision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still not clear which method is the most efficient for treating primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation. Immobilization in external rotation has become increasingly discussed within the last 10 years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate of recurrence and clinical outcome of the immobilization in external rotation after primary traumatic anterior dislocation within a midterm period of 5 years. Additionally, a summary of literature is given according to the present knowledge of this issue. METHODS From May 2004 to May 2006, 28 patients with primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocations were included in a prospective MRI-controlled study. After a follow-up of 5 years, the recurrence rate and clinical outcomes of the patients were evaluated using clinical scores (Constant and Murley score, Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, Rowe score). RESULTS After 5 years, 26 patients (93 %; males, n = 25; female, n = 1; mean age, 29.3 years) were interviewed concerning re-dislocations. In the meantime, four patients (15 %) experienced a re-dislocation (ø 12.2 months) after the end of the immobilization. Overall, 21 patients (75 %) were included in a clinical follow-up (CM score: ø 92.8 points; Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index: ø 87 %; Rowe score (in 17 patients): ø 94.2 points). Upon clinical examination, unidirectional anterior instability was found in one patient, which corresponds to an overall instability rate of 19 % within the examined patient population including the re-dislocations. CONCLUSIONS Immobilization in external rotation shows satisfactory results after 5 years in regard to recurrence and instability rates and clinical outcomes. The data show that with immobilization in external rotation, re-dislocations occur within the first 2 years.

Abstract
Background:
Acute infections and other inflammatory stimuli have emerged as important triggers of vascular events. Previous studies have reported 25 to 35% antecedent infection rates among patients with acute cerebrovascular accidents (CVA). The mechanisms involved in acute infection include immunological mediated activation of platelets and endothelial dysfunction. The incidence of antecedent UTI has not been reported and could establish an important relationship between UTI and CVA.
Objective:
The aim of the current study was to determine and compare the incidence of antecedent UTI among CVA patients to reported UTI rates among the general population.
Methods:
This was a retrospective review of 1295 medical records for CVA from the emergency department in a high volume tertiary care center. Our cohort included CVA patients that also had urinalysis within 72 hours prior to or less than 24 hours after admission. Patients with bacteriuria without any of the additional findings were excluded. The incidence of UTI was compared to the infection rate calculated for a hypothetical equal size comparison group based on previously reported literature (i.e., historical controls).
Results:
Thirty-seven percent (476/1295) of the patients met inclusion criteria of simultaneous CVA and urinalysis. The overall crude incidence of UTI was 39.3% (187/476). Ischemic strokes accounted for a larger percentage of abnormal urinalysis (74.9%), when compared to hemorrhagic strokes (25.1%). Nonetheless, patients suffering hemorrhagic strokes had similar rates of UTI (40.2%) versus Ischemic Stroke Patients (38.7%). The incidence of UTI was significantly higher than reported infection rates of general population controls (187/476=39.3% versus 52/424=10.9%, p<0.001).
Conclusion:
Our findings provide some evidence that the incidence of UTI is significantly higher for patients with CVA than is found in the general population

Abstract
The case of a 61-year-old male with posterior dislocation of the right shoulder joint is presented and a new technique for closed reduction of posterior locked shoulder dislocation is described. The technique involves four steps: in step 1 a constant traction is applied on the injured arm, in step 2 the arm is internally rotated and in steps 3 and 4 the second arm of the physician is used as a lever arm to lateralize and ventralize the shoulder. Lateralization and ventralization of the humeral head are essential to engage the humeral head and to pass it around the glenoid during reduction. Steps 3 and 4 are performed simultaneously. In the presented case the patient suffered a traumatic shoulder dislocation with a rim fracture of the glenoid. After reduction the shoulder was stable and conservative treatment was performed. A 2 year follow-up examination revealed a pain-free and stable shoulder with free range of motion and an Oxford instability score of 48 points. The described reduction technique for posterior locked shoulder dislocation is a simple and gentle technique, which can be performed easily by one person.Presentation of a reduction technique for locked posterior shoulder dislocation. Constant traction and internal rotation is performed for engaging the locked humeral head. After disengaging the humeral head the reduction is performed by using the arm of the physician as a lever arm.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The surgical treatment of displaced proximal humeral fractures (ORIF) is a perpetual challenge to the surgeon. For this reason, the principle of polyaxiality was developed to provide an improved primary stability of the fracture through better anchorage of the screws, especially in osteoporotic bone. The aim of this study was to present clinical results with the polyaxial locking plate in the operative treatment of proximal humerus fractures in order to determine whether the technique of polyaxiality leads to better functional outcome and lower complication rates in comparison to monoaxial plates in the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-three patients with displaced proximal humeral fractures were treated surgically with the polyaxial locking Suture Plate™ (Arthrex(®)) between 03/2007 and 06/2009. Fifty-two of the patients (mean age, 69.9 ± 12.1) were included in a radiographical and clinical examination using the Constant score (CS) and the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (DASH). RESULTS The follow-up examinations were on average 13.9 ± 4.5 months (10-27 months) after surgical treatment. The mean CS of the patients was 66.0 ± 13.7 points, the age- and gender-related CS was 90.9% ± 20.0% and the mean DASH score was 23.8 ± 19.8 points for the injured side. The patients with a nearly anatomical reduction of their fracture (n = 13) reached a significantly higher CS (75.1 ± 8.5; p = 0.004) and DASH-score (13.6 ± 11.6; p = 0.043) and none of these patients had a complication. The complications were identified in 12 (23.1%) cases, 5 of which involved loss of reduction. All of these 5 cases were lacking of initial medial column support and 4 of which were type C2.3 AO-Classification. CONCLUSION The data show that the combination of angular stability with the possibility of variable polyaxial screw direction is a good concept for reduction and fixation of displaced proximal humeral fractures, but anatomical reduction and medial support remain important preconditions for a good outcome. However, a significantly lower rate of complications or better clinical outcome than that reported in the literature could not be found.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of severe bacterial infections of the ankle joint is difficult and complex. In the case of a chronic infection with destruction of the ankle joint, a tibiotalar arthrodesis with external fixation is the treatment of choice. In this study the results of ankle arthrodesis due to bacterial infection using the Ilizarov external fixator are presented. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2001 and 2004 37 patients (10 female, 27 male, mean age 58 years) were treated with a tibiotalar arthrodesis using the Ilizarov fixator. All patients had a confirmed infection in the course of their disease. Active infection was present in 20 patients at the time of the operation. Most secondary ankle arthritides (81 %) were caused post-traumatically after various internal fixation procedures. Previous ankle arthrodeses were tried in 14 cases (12 cases with internal fixation, two cases with external monolateral fixation). Patients were treated with a four-ring Ilizarov frame (in two cases with a five-ring frame) and stainless steel wires. All patients could be included at a mean follow-up of 46 (12-49) months. A modified AOFAS score was used for the functional outcome. RESULTS The operation took 141 minutes at an average ranging from 90 to 252 minutes. The inpatient treatment lasted between 10 and 63 days (mean 26 days). The time spent in the fixator was 116.7 (69-245) days. All patients were mobilised under full weight bearing with the external fixator. Surgical revision was necessary in 13 patients: four patients needed wound revisions due to ongoing infection, six patients needed wire exchange due to deep infection in three cases and wire breakage in three cases, one patient needed additional wires because of an initially instable frame configuration and two patients needed secondary skin grafting. Bony consolidation was achieved in 32 patients (86.5 %). With a re-arthrodesis performed in four patients using the Ilizarov fixator, the overall fusion rate was 94.6 %. Infection was persistent in two cases with one solid ankle fusion and one ankle pseudarthrosis. At the time of follow-up 35 patients were able to walk under full weight loading with orthopaedic shoe modifications, four patients needed support of a cane and three patients wore an ankle-foot orthesis. The two patients with persistent pseudarthrosis were mobilised in a lower-leg orthesis after declining another surgical revision. The positioning of the hindfoot showed in seven cases an equinus of 10°, in one case a varus of 10° and in two cases a valgus positioning of 10°. A plantigrade foot positioning or with minimal degrees of deviation could be achieved in all other cases. The modified AOFAS score at the time of the follow-up examination ranged from 19 to 86 with an average score of 67.9 points. All patients except three were satisfied or rather satisfied with the treatment procedure and its results. CONCLUSION The Ilizarov external fixator is a safe method for ankle fusion in cases of infection. The advances are a possible application at acute infection and immediate mobilisation at full weight bearing. However, it remains a time-consuming and stressful procedure for the patient.

Abstract
The operative management of open fractures of the lower limb requires a consistent treatment to avoid soft tissue complications. Acute angular shortening of the fracture enabling primary soft tissue closure is still an uncommon operative technique because of difficulties in correcting the secondary deformity. The case of a pediatric open fracture of the lower limb (Gustilo type IIIa) is described, which was treated with acute angular shortening followed by gradual correction using the Taylor spatial frame (TSF).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Arm wrestling may cause severe injuries. Various injuries after arm wrestling have been reported in the literature, whereas the most common injury is the humeral shaft fracture. In this context we report on eleven cases with different injuries during arm wrestling. MATERIAL AND METHODS All patients were analyzed using a standardized questionnaire. The effect of drugs, pre-existing conditions and injuries as well as sport activities were examined. Furthermore we report about a 24 year old patient who sustained a radial shaft fracture which has not been reported in the literature yet. RESULTS 8 patients suffered from a fracture. The humerus was the most affected bone in 7 cases. 3 patients had a muscle strain, whereas in all 3 cases the patients were regularly sportive active and warmed-up be for the injury. Ten patients were reintegrated into the previous job after an average time period of 6 weeks. One patient was out of work. CONCLUSIONS Regular sport activity and the muscle strength are important factors for the injury intensity. Further studies are necessary to confirm this theory.

Abstract
AIM Repeated luxations, periprosthetic fractures, infections, and nerve palsies are the most frequent complications of hip alloarthroplasty. Paresis acquired during elective implantation entails considerable restrictions in the quality of life. The risk of sustaining a nerve injury depends upon the initial clinical situation, cases of planned leg lengthening in patients with hip dysplasia and high luxations being particularly at risk. METHOD A Medline search was conducted using the query "nerve palsies during hip prosthesis implantation", yielding 126 publications, of which 18 were used to predict the risk of nerve palsies in cases with simultaneous leg lengthening during total hip arthroplasties according to different preconditions. RESULTS The risk for an acquired nerve lesion during hip alloarthroplasty in arthritis was 0.5 %. In cases of hip dysplasia (with no or moderate leg lengthening during the procedure), the risk was increased to 2.3 %. An even higher risk of 3.5 % was found in cases of revision surgery. According to the literature, the risk of nerve palsies in cases of continuous leg lengthening before THA is raised to 5.9 % with a linear correlation between the amount of leg lengthening and rate of nerve palsies. CONCLUSION Neural lesions during single-stage leg lengthening of less than 3 cm in hip alloarthroplasty are uncommon. More extensive lengthening can be achieved with continuous procedures, which should be conducted under clinical monitoring of the peripheral nerves to avert possible nerve injury.

Abstract
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are rare spindle cell neoplasms. To date only very few cases of pelvic SFT have been reported in the literature. SFT are characterized by unique microscopic and immunohistochemical findings. Complete local resection is the treatment of choice. Recurrence and metastasis may be related to infrequent malignant histological features, but histology is not always a reliable predictor for prognosis. Therefore long-term follow-up is necessary.We report about a male patient with a malignant pelvic SFT. After complete resection the tumor recurred after a short period of 6 months posterior to the original location in the pelvis. The differential diagnoses and the therapy options are discussed with a review of the present literature.

Abstract
The clinical presentation of synovitis with rice bodies is found in a few systemic diseases as accompanying manifestations within joints or joint-associated bursa. A 79-year old patient was examined, who had complained of pain and swelling in the left shoulder for a long time. Sonography identified multiple spindle-shaped joint bodies within the joint effusion. MRI showed a large amount of so-called rice bodies with joint effusion in the shoulder and a massive destruction of the rotator cuff of the left shoulder. The histological examination showed a tuberculosis-specific inflammatory response with giant cells and epithelioid granulomas and molecular biological detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Within a few months after surgical removal of the rice bodies from the joint space and the bursa a relapse occurred with repeated synovial effusion followed by a renewed surgical removal of the joint bodies. We describe the rare case of a patient with unilateral musculoskeletal manifestation of tuberculosis presented as synovitis of the left shoulder and the adjacent bursa with rice bodies and accelerated growth trend without coexisting active tuberculosis or tuberculosis in the previous history. Furthermore, a brief summary of the literature is given.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Posttraumatic deformities in the lower limb are mainly multidirectional, with angulation, translation, and rotatory deformities. Acute corrections with internal fixation are often not possible due to the soft tissue damage and the extent of the deformity. The Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) allows correction in a virtual hinge with 6 axes, thus enabling the correction of multidirectional deformities simultaneously. METHODS From February 2003 until December 2006, we applied 31 TSFs to 20 patients with a posttraumatic deformity of the tibia and hindfoot. The mean patient age was 41 years (range 12-73). 9 patients had a nonunion of the tibia with deformity, 6 had a malunion of the lower tibia and ankle, 3 had an angular deformity after ankle fusion, and 2 had malaligned Ilizarov bone segment transports. The mean follow-up time was 25.3 months (range 10-82). RESULTS In all 20 patients, full correction of the deformity was achieved. The mean time for correction was 29 days (range 5-82). On average, the frame was worn (time to healing) 164.2 days (80-300) and the mean distraction rate was 1.1 mm/day (0.5-2.0). The Web-based planning was done two times per case for full deformity correction. Complications were 3 pin-site infections, 2 insufficient callus formations and 1 pinhole stress fracture. CONCLUSIONS The main advantage of the TSF compared with other external frames is the ability to perform simultaneous correction of angular, axial, translational, and rotatory deformities. This enables a reduced correction time and increased patient comfort.

Abstract
Despite adequate primary treatment many ankle fractures result in post-traumatic deformities and arthrosis. Revision mostly requires a multidirectional correction whereas internal fixation procedures are often not applicable due to soft tissue damage and the extent of deformity. The Taylor spatial frame enables simultaneous correction of multidirectional deformities through a virtual hinge using the same ideas of distraction osteogenesis as the Ilizarov fixator. The presented case demonstrates minimally invasive correction of a complex deformity of the ankle with the Taylor spatial frame fixator. Orthogonal alignment was achieved and a stabilizing tibiotalar arthrodesis was performed achieving a good functional and pain-free result.

Abstract
Given the rising prevalence of obesity, surgeons and hospitals must become more familiar with the treatment and operative management of obese patients. Several additional pre- and postoperative considerations must be involved such as appropriate assessment of comorbidities and requirements for special equipment. There are still very few data regarding morbidly obese patients with BMIs >50 kg/m(2). After a general literature review of operative management of obese patients, we report on fracture care of the lower limb in such patients with custom-made Ilizarov ring fixators. We found them suited to bear enormous weight-loading but that associated comborbidities can limit successful fracture care.

Abstract
Traumatic abdominal wall hernias are rare injuries despite the high incidence of blunt abdominal traumas. The mechanism of this injury includes a sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure and extensive shear forces applied to the abdominal wall. The typical location is found at anatomic weak areas in the lower abdomen. Often, significant intra-abdominal injuries or injuries of the pelvis and chest are associated. We describe a case of an abdominal contusion trauma leading to a traumatic abdominal wall hernia beside the rectal sheath. In this case, parts of the small bowel penetrated through the ruptured muscle of the abdominal wall up to the subcutis. After appropriate diagnosis, the defect was repaired using a sheet of synthetic mesh to stabilize the abdominal wall. Based on this case, the management of blunt abdominal wall hernias and the literature are discussed.

Abstract
The treatment of anterior glenoid rim fractures depends on the size of the fracture and the articular surface involved. The operative treatment is open or arthroscopic refixation. In cases with small fragments and a stable shoulder nonoperative treatment is recommended. In patients with a primary shoulder dislocation immobilization in external rotation has been showed to improve the position of the displaced labrum on the glenoid rim. However, whether external rotation can reduce displaced glenoid rim fractures is not known. With the use of CT the repositioning of a glenoid rim fracture in a single patient in external rotation is evaluated.A 26-year-old patient with an anterior glenoid rim fracture after a primary shoulder dislocation was referred to our shoulder service. After initial reduction a CT scan in internal and external rotation of the involved shoulder was performed. In the external rotation CT the glenoid rim fracture was reduced in anatomic position. The patient was immobilized in a 30 degrees external rotation brace for 4 weeks. Six weeks after trauma the internal rotation CT showed the fracture healed in the anatomic position. At the 1-year follow-up the Constant Score and the Rowe Score were 100 points each. In patients with anterior glenoid rim fractures immobilization of the shoulder in external rotation seems to allow a reduction of the fracture. A study with a large number of patients is under way to evaluate long-term results.
