Arthroscopic assessment of cartilage healing status after treatment of tibial plateau fracture
Conclusion: Even though step off was reduced anatomically and clinical outcome was excellent or good, there was not always complete cartilage healing in a followup on second-look arthroscopy. Therefore, we focused on not only radiologic and clinical outcome but also the actual status of cartilage with second-look arthroscopy. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Augmentation plate fixation for treating subtrochanteric fracture nonunion
Conclusion: The use of an intramedullary device with augmentation plate fixation is a reliable and decisive procedure for treating subtrochanteric fracture nonunion that produces satisfactory results with a low complication rate. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Antibiotic cement spacer and induced membrane bone grafting in open fractures with bone loss: A case series
Conclusion: This technique can be routinely applied in compound fractures with bone loss with good results. Chances of infection are reduced using antibiotic cement spacer as an adjunct to thorough debridement. Induced biomembrane revascularizes the graft. Union can be expected in most of the cases, however, long time to union is a limitation. Technique is cost-effective and does not require special training or instrumentation. Although it is a two-stage surgery, requirement of multiple surgeries, as may be needed in conventional methods, is avoided. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Fixation of the various coronal plane fracture fragments, including the entire coronoid process, in patients with mayo type IIB olecranon fractures - Four methods for fixation
Conclusion: A thorough preoperative understanding of the fragment patterns and preparation of tools for adequate reduction and fixation are necessary for satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes. However, further comparative trials of conservative management versus surgery for CPF fixation, and any differences in outcomes according to the CPF fixation options, are required.

Ultrasound-guided saphenous nerve block for saphenous neuralgia after knee surgery: Two case reports and review of literature
We present two cases of saphenous neuralgia, one after total knee arthroplasty and the other after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, that were adequately treated with ultrasound-guided saphenous nerve blocks distal to the adductor canal. Early recognition and treatment of saphenous neuralgia is essential to prevent persistent disabling pain, which significantly affects patients' quality of life.

Reporting a rare scenario of hypoglossal nerve palsy in craniovertebral tuberculosis. Two patients presented in outpatient department with chief complaints of pain in neck, restricted neck movements, gait changes, difficulty in speech and weakness in all the extremities. On the basis of clinicoradiological correlation, the patients were diagnosedwithtuberculosis of C1–C2 spine. They were started on antituberculosis therapy Category 1. The patients improved clinically and there was no worsening of...

A modification of internal bone transport method for reconstruction of nonunion of forearm
Conclusions: Using our method, internal bone transport and progressive axial docking of defects can be done with minimal effects on surrounding neurovascular arrangements and soft tissues. Size of fixators can be decreased and formation of painful scar tissue can be avoided. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)
