Introduction:- Extra-articular proximal tibial fractures account for 5–10 % of all tibial shaft fractures and it result from high-velocity trauma. Closed reduction with minimally invasive plating and locked intramedullary  nailing have been widely used for treatment of proximal tibia extraarticular fractures. Our pupose is to compare the pros and cons of these two methods. Materials and methods:- 22 patients were included in this study for a period of 2 years. Patients treated with IMN were kept in group A patients treated with percutaneus plating were kept in group B. Standard approach of nailing and plating were used and proper follow up were taken for next upcoming 1 year. Results:- Combined average age was 38years. Male were more commonly affected than female (13:8). Majority of fracture were of type A33. Operative time was < 2 hours in both groups. Less blood loss occurred during intramedullary nailing as compared to locking plate fixation. Surgical site infections (SSIs) were seen in two patients in the PTP group. Delayed union occurred in two patients in the IMN group. The average range of motion was 119.7(range 90-150, SD= 19.18) in group A and 115.2(range 80-150, SD = 17.28) in group B. Conclusion:- in treatment of proximal tibia extra articular fracture use of IMN and PTLCP gives comparable results. To validate this issue further a large sample size multicentric study is recommended   Key words: intramedullary nailing (IMN), Extraarticular tibialn fracture, Surgical site infection.

McCune-Albright Syndrome (MAS) is characterized by endocrinopathies, café-au-lait spots, and fibrous dysplasia. Bisphosphonates are the most prescribed treatment for reducing the pain but their long-term use has been associated with atypical fractures of cortical bones like femur in patients. We present a 23-year-old girl diagnosed with MAS. She had an atypical mid-shaft left femoral fracture that happened during simple walking. She also had a history of long-term use of alendronate. Because of the narrow medullary canal, we used 14 holes hybrid locking plate for the lateral aspect of the thigh to fix the fracture and 5 holes dynamic compression plate (instead of the intramedullary nail) in the anterior surface to double fix it, reducing the probability of device failure. With double plate fixation and discontinuation of alendronate, the complete union was achieved five months after surgery

Background: Chronic exposure to occupational ionising radiation is seen as one reason for elevated cancer prevalence. </P><P> Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate radiation exposure of anaesthetists by real-time dosimetry. Methods: Data of 296 patients were analyzed. Ten types of trauma operation procedures including osteosynthesis of upper and lower extremity fractures and minimally invasive stabilisation of traumatic and osteoporotic vertebral fractures were accomplished. Evaluation was performed by an occupational dosimetry system, which visualises anaesthetists radiation exposure feedback compared to surgeons in real-time. Results: A significantly lower radiation exposure to anaesthetists compared to surgeons was observed in four types of operative procedures: Plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures, osteosynthesis of proximal femoral fractures, stabilisation of traumatic and osteoporotic vertebral fractures. In four types of operations (plate osteosynthesis of proximal humeral, distal radial and tibial fractures and intramedullary nailing of the clavicle), anaesthetists` amount of radiation exceeded one-third of the surgeons' exposure, especially if the C-arm tube was positioned close to the anaesthetists work station at the patients' head. Conclusion: By using the occupational radiation dose monitoring system, radiation exposure to anaesthetists was visualised in real-time during trauma operations. Radiation exposure of anaesthetists depends on the type of operation and the position of the C-arm. The system may help to increase anaesthetists` awareness concerning radiation exposure and to enhance compliance in using radiation protection techniques.
