Case ReportsGiant lipoma extending into two thigh canals: A case report.
Giant lipomas, although rare, represent a real diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We report an unusual giant lipoma of the thigh extending into two thigh canals and it's diagnostic and therapeutic processes.

Biomechanical analysis of the fixation systems for anterior column and posterior hemi-transverse acetabular fractures.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical properties of common fixation systems for complex acetabular fractures. ⋯ Our results suggested that all fixation systems enhance biomechanical stability significantly. Anterior column plate combined with quadrilateral area screws has quite comparable results to double column plates, they were superior to anterior column plate combined with posterior screws.
