Observational StudyScrew-plate fixation for displaced middle-third clavicular fractures with three or more fragments: A report of 172 cases.
Although mid-shaft clavicular fractures are generally thought to be non-serious injuries that nearly always heal with non-operative treatment, recent studies found non-union rates of 3%-7% in simple fractures and 20%-33% in complex fractures. The primary objective of this study was to report the functional and anatomical outcomes after screw-plate fixation of displaced mid-shaft clavicular fractures with three or more fragments. ⋯ IV, retrospective cohort study.

Comparative StudyClinical evaluation of double-plate osteosynthesis for olecranon fractures: A retrospective case-control study.
Single, dorsal plating is a commonly used technique for treating olecranon fractures. Double-plate osteosynthesis is an alternative treatment. Aim of this study was to present the surgical technique using this novel double-plate implant for olecranon fractures and review clinical results, complication rates and revision surgeries. Results were compared to single, dorsal plating. ⋯ III, retrospective case-control study.

Observational StudyPrevious arthroscopic Bankart repair is an independent risk factor for an inferior outcome after Latarjet procedure.
There is limited evidence that the Latarjet procedure has a worse outcome as a revision operation, after a failed stabilization surgery, compared with when it is the primary procedure for posttraumatic anteroinferior instability of the shoulder joint. ⋯ IV, cohort observational study.

The top 100 most-cited Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research articles.
The French peer-reviewed journal Revue d'Orthopédie founded on 1st January 1890 extended its scope in 2009 by creating the English-language, online-only, indexed journal Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research (OTSR). Bibliometric data help authors and readers assess the citation potential of articles published in a given journal. We found no bibliometrics for the first 10years of OTSR. The objectives of this bibliometric study were to identify (i) the 100 most-cited OTSR articles and (ii) the specialties or article types most often involved in citations. ⋯ IV, systematic retrospective analysis.
