Publication Metadata only Apophyseal avulsion fracture of the anterior inferior iliac spine due to a simple bone cyst(2015-03-01T00:00:00Z) Elmadag, Mehmet; CEYLAN, Hasan H.; ERDIL, Mehmet; Bilsel, Kerem; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; BİLSEL, İSMAIL KEREMApophyseal avulsion fractures of the anterior inferior iliac spine are rare; they are usually seen in adolescents as a result of sudden contraction of the rectus femoris muscle. Treatment is usually conservative, but surgical management may be necessary in certain circumstances. We present an unusual case of a 14-year-old male who was referred to our department for a suspicious pathological fracture of his right anterior inferior iliac spine; he was found to have an avulsion fracture of the anterior inferior iliac spine due to simple bone cyst. We discuss the treatment of this rare injury caused by a benign osseous tumour.Publication Metadata only Floating shoulder: ipsilateral clavicle, scapular body and glenoid fracture. A case report.(2012-06-01T00:00:00Z) Elmadag, M; CEYLAN, HH; BILSEL, K; ERDIL, M; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMETPublication Metadata only A modified stoppa (technique) approach for treatment of pediatric acetabular fractures.(2013-01-01T00:00:00Z) Elmadag, M; ACAR, MA; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMETPublication Open Access The Stoppa approach versus the ilioinguinal approach for anterior acetabular fractures: A case control study assessing blood loss complications and function outcomes(2014-10-01T00:00:00Z) Elmadag, M.; Guzel, Y.; Acar, M. A.; UZER, GÖKÇER; ARAZI, M.; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; UZER, GÖKÇERBackground: The modified Stoppa approach was introduced to manage fracture of the anterior column instead of the ilioinguinal approach to reduce morbidity. However there is no clinical evidence to confirm its efficiency. Therefore this study was designed to ascertain: (1) if the Stoppa approach versus ilioinguinal allows less blood loss, (2) if functional and radiological results are superior to that of the ilioinguinal approach, (3) if the rate of complication was different.Publication Open Access Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome due to a Vertebral Hemangioma and Postpartum Osteoporosis following Treatment.(2015-01-01) Elmadag, M; GÜZEL, Y; UZER, GÖKÇER; TUNCAY, İBRAHİM; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; UZER, GÖKÇER; TUNCAY, İBRAHİMIn pregnancy, advanced vertebral hemangiomas may be seen, and these require treatment. The case reported here is of a 35-yearold female in the 32nd week of pregnancy who was admitted to the orthopaedics clinic with a history of backache and difficulty walking. A burst fracture of L1 associated with a vertebral hemangioma was identified with an L3 compression fracture secondary to osteoporosis. The local kyphosis angle between T12 and L2 was 27∘ . Kyphotic deformity was corrected and postoperatively, the measured T12–L2 local kyphotic angle was 9∘ . Twelve hours postoperatively, oral nutrition was allowed, but she developed nausea and vomiting and twenty-four hours postoperatively, an electrolyte imbalance developed. Postoperatively, the patient was diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery syndrome. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of superior mesenteric artery syndrome, which occurred following the correction of a kyphotic deformity that had developed secondary to an advanced hemangioma in pregnancyPublication Open Access Excess retained cement in the posteromedial compartment after unicondylar knee arthroplasty(2013-07-01) Elmadag, Mehmet; IMREN, Yunus; ERDIL, Mehmet; Bilsel, Kerem; Tuncay, Ibrahim; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; BİLSEL, İSMAIL KEREM; TUNCAY, İBRAHİMAcute mechanical symptoms due to excess retained cement in the posterior compartment of the knee joint following unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) are uncommon. Infection, aseptic loosening, polyethylene wear and progressive arthritis are well-documented complications of UKA procedure. We present a patient with acute pain and 'clicking' sensation in the knee joint due to cement extrusion in the posteromedial compartment after UKA. Full functional recovery was achieved after arthroscopic removal of the cement debris. Of retrospectively screened 43 UKA cases, asymptomatic cement extrusion was detected in 8 patients in the posteromedial compartment on direct X-rays. Careful inspection of components is essential to minimize the risk of cement extrusion into the posterior compartment and perioperative fluoroscopy may be helpful during UKA procedure.Publication Metadata only Percutaneous double-button fixation method for treatment of acute type III acromioclavicular joint dislocation.(2015-01-01T00:00:00Z) ACAR, MA; GÜLEÇ, A; ERKOCAK, OF; YıLMAZ, G; DURGUT, F; Elmadağ, M; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMETPublication Open Access Comparison of two types of proximal femoral hails in the treatment of intertrochanteric femur fractures(2015-09-01) Uzer, GÖKÇER; Elmadag, NUH MEHMET; Yildiz, FATİH; Bilsel, Kerem; Erden, TUNAY; Toprak, HÜSEYİN; UZER, GÖKÇER; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; YILDIZ, FATİH; BİLSEL, İSMAIL KEREM; ERDEN, TUNAY; TOPRAK, HÜSEYİNBackground: Hip nailing is frequently used to treat unstable intertrochanteric femoral fractures (ITF) in elderly patients. In this retrospective study, we compared the functional and radiological results, and the complications, of patients treated using proximal femoral nails (PFN) with an integrated, interlocking, compression lag screw, or two separate lag screws, which allow linear compression at the fracture site. Methods: A total of one hundred and eighteen patients were operated on for AO/OTA 31-A2 ITF between May 2010 and April 2012, and eighty-two of these patients, for whom sufficient follow-up data and documentation were available, were included into the study. PFNs with interlocking, integrated lag screws (Group I) were used in forty-four patients, and PFNs with two separate lag screws (Group II) in thirty-eight. Outcome parameters were the extent of varus collapse and leg length discrepancy on radiographs, and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) and Harris hip scores (HHS) as functional results. Results: Mean follow-up duration was 20 months (range, 12-36 months); fractures healed in all patients. Mean varus collapse values were 2.03±5.68° and 5.21±5.27° (p=0.01), Harris hip scores 73.2±11.65 and 74.72±11.15 (p=0.54), and WOMAC scores 70.78±11.41 and 71.78±11.19 (p=0.69) in Groups I and II, respectively. No difference was detected between the groups in terms of outcome parameters or complication rate. Conclusion: In the treatment of ITF, PFNs with an integrated, interlocking, compression lag screw, or two separate lag screws did not differ in terms of functional and radiological results or complication rate.Publication Open Access Metatarsal head resurfacing hemiarthroplasty in the treatment of advanced stage hallux rigidus: outcomes in the short-term(2012-07-01) ERDIL, Mehmet; Bilsel, Kerem; IMREN, Yunus; MUTLU, Serhat; GULER, Olcay; Gurkan, VOLKAN; Elmadag, NUH MEHMET; Tuncay, Ibrahim; BİLSEL, İSMAIL KEREM; GÜRKAN, VOLKAN; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; TUNCAY, İBRAHİMObjective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term outcomes of metatarsal head metal resurfacing hemiarthroplasty in patients with advanced stage hallux rigidus. Methods: The study included 14 feet (4 left, 10 right) of 12 patients (10 female, 2 male; mean age: 63 ± 5; range: 55 to 71 years) who underwent metatarsal head metal resurfacing hemiarthroplasty (HemiCAP(®)) between 2007 and 2010. Additionally, capsular release and periarticular osteophyte debridement were performed. Staging was made according to Coughlin and Shurnas' clinical and radiological grading system. Hallux valgus and intermetatarsal angles were measured using pre and postoperative standing AP and lateral foot views. Clinical assessment was made with first metatarsophalangeal joint range of motion, the AOFAS (American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society) hallux metatarsophalangeal-interphalangeal scale and satisfaction level. Results: Mean follow up was 19.5 (range: 14 to 26) months. Two patients had bilateral involvement. According to Coughlin and Shurnas' clinical and radiological grading system, nine feet were Stage 3 and five feet were Stage 4. According to the AOFAS scale, results of eight feet (57.1%) were excellent, four feet (28.6%) were good and two feet (14.3%) were moderate. Mean total AOFAS score increased by 26.2 points postoperatively (p<0.05). Mean range of motion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint improved significantly from a preoperative 22.2 ± 5.6 (range: 10 to 28) degrees to a postoperative 56.3 ± 9.6 degrees (p<0.05). Mean hallux valgus angle decreased from a preoperative 14.3 (range: 9 to 17) degrees to a postoperative 11.1 (range: 4 to 13) degrees and the mean intermetatarsal angle increased from a preoperative 10.5 (range: 8 to 14) degrees to a postoperative 10.8 (range: 8 to 15) degrees. Patient satisfaction levels were very good in 10 feet (71.4%), good in 3 (21.4%), and moderate in one (7.2%). Complications included metatarsalgia aggravated by long walks in one patient and hypoesthesia of the great toe in three patients. Push-off power of the great toes was measured as 4/5 in three cases, and 5/5 in others. Conclusion: Metatarsal head metal resurfacing hemiarthroplasty provides high patient satisfaction level and good functional outcome in the short-term, in the surgical treatment of advanced stage hallux rigidus refractory to conservative treatment options.Publication Open Access Safety of modified Stoppa approach for Ganz periacetabular osteotomy: A preliminary cadaveric study(2016-08-01T00:00:00Z) Elmadag, Mehmet; Uzer, GÖKÇER; Yildiz, FATİH; CEYLAN, Hasan H.; Acar, Mehmet A.; ELMADAĞ, NUH MEHMET; UZER, GÖKÇER; YILDIZ, FATİHObjective: The aim of this cadaveric study was to investigate the efficacy of the modified Stoppa approach in Ganz periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). Methods: The Ganz PAO was performed on 10 hemipelvises with normal hips, from 5 cadavers using the modified Stoppa approach through the Pfannenstiel incision. All of the osteotomies were performed under fluoroscopic control and direct visualizing the osteotomy site from the same incision. After the osteotomy, the acetabulum was medialized and redirected anterolaterally, and fixed with 2 screws. The neurovascular structures and the joints were examined by dissecting the soft tissues after fixation of the osteotomies. Outcome parameters were center-edge (CE) angle, the distances between the osteotomy and anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS), and between the osteotomy and the sciatic notch, neurovascular and joint penetrations. Results: After the osteotomy, the mean CE angle was improved from 19.8 degrees to 25.2 degrees, mean distance between the osteotomy and ASIS was 3.1 cm, and the mean distance between the osteotomy and the sciatic notch was 10.2 mm. The neurovascular structures and the joints were examined by dissecting the soft tissues after fixation of the osteotomies. No damage to the joint, surrounding arteries, veins or nerves was detected in any of the cadavers. Conclusions: Bilateral dysplastic hips can be treated with a 10 cm, cosmetically more acceptable incision in the same session using this approach. Quadrilateral surface of the acetabulum can be directly seen using this approach and the osteotomy can be safely performed. (C) 2016 Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology.
