Radiographic and clinical outcomes of distal tibia fractures (3-12 cm proximal to the plafond): Comparison of two intramedullary nailing.
There are various distal locking options for the repair of tibia distal diametaphyseal fractures with intramedullary nails. There is no consensus about the superiority of any of these distal locking options. In our study, comparing nails with distal bolt locking screw (DSBLS) and conventional nails; we aimed to compare the clinical and radiological results of intramedullary nail models in fixing tibial distal diametaphyseal fractures. ⋯ Newly developed DSBLS intramedullary nails give as good results as conventional nails in tibia distal diametaphyseal fractures. Due to its ability to loading bone early and have a shorter union time, DSBLS can be safely preferred in distal diametaphyseal fractures and reduce complications from immobilization.

Combat-related ocular trauma and visual outcomes during counter-terrorism urban warfare operations in Turkey.
The study was to report the clinical features and post-operative outcomes in military personnel admitted to the Ocular Trauma Center of Gülhane Training and Research Hospital after sustaining combat injuries in urban warfare. ⋯ Ocular injuries related to IEDs had the most significant impact on both visual and anatomic prognoses, and globe survival was less likely in eyes with zone III trauma, in which intraocular foreign bodies penetrated the choroid. There is a higher pos-sibility of PKP failure if this procedure is performed during the same session as other ocular surgery.

The relationship between extremity fractures and visual impairment in childhood: A case-control study.
Fractures are common extremity injuries in pediatric orthopedic practice. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between pediatric extremity fractures and visual impairments. ⋯ Our study showed that low-energy pediatric extremity fractures are more common in children with visual im-pairments that require treatment, and low stereopsis is a risk factor for fractures. Consequently, regular eye examinations and early treatment of visual impairments in children may help to prevent fall-related injuries.

Evaluation of the appendectomy cases performed under emergency conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic and discussed with the pathology reports.
The aim of this study is to examine the cases underwent appendectomy during the COVID-19 pandemic and to discuss the pathology reports of patients. ⋯ COVID-19 pandemic not only changes all routines of social life but also complicates the treatment and manage-ment of cases with AA symptoms applied to hospital under emergency conditions. Follow-up of the appendectomy specimen is crucial in terms of excluding other pathologies.

Retrospective examination of complications observed in orthognathic surgical surgery in 85 patients.
The aim of our study is to examine the possible complications, risk factors, and solutions encountered in orthog-nathic surgery in the light of the cases; we performed in our clinic. ⋯ Post-operative malocclusion, bleeding, inferior alveolar nerve injury, infection, poor division, and infection are the most common complications in orthognathic surgery. It can be associated with factors such as the duration of the operation, the number of operations, the site of the operation, and the type of osteotomy which performed. It is thought that positive contributions can be made to the success of the surgery by considering these factors in the treatment planning, during the operation and in the post-operative follow-up part.
