Total Hip Replacement in a patient with chronic coxofemoral joint dislocation is a challenging problem because chronic coxofemoral joint dislocation causes severe morphological changes. These challenging factors make surgery more difficult and increase the possibility of postoperative complications including cup implant dislocation and prosthetic joint luxation. All patients were diagnosed having at least 2 months of coxofemoral joint dislocation. On physical examination, crepitus was noted in the coxofemoral joint. Radiographs revealed hip joint dislocation with mild to severe degenerative changes. Total hip replacement was planned for all patients. Dorsal acetabular rim deficiency in 3 cases was augmented using a locking plate and polymethylmethacrylate bone cement. All cases have shown difficulty in prosthetic joint reduction. Pectineus and rectus femoris muscle origin were released in all cases. At 12 months follow up, all patients showed satisfactory ambulation. The issues on perioperative prosthetic joint reduction and luxation due to chronic coxofemoral joint luxation with muscle contracture and dorsal acetabular rim deficiency can be resolved by muscle releasing and dorsal acetabular rim augmentation.

An isolated dislocation of the intermediate cuneiform bone is a rare midfoot injury. This paper reports a case of a 60 year old man who fell from a height with his foot in the plantar flexed position. An isolated dorsal dislocation of the intermediated cuneiform was confirmed. Good results were obtained after an open reduction and internal fixation with a Lisfranc screw and Kirschner wire.

Metatarsophalangeal joint dislocations are unusual, and especially most dorsal metatarsophalangeal joint dislocations can be easily reduced with closed manipuations. But we are reporting a case of irreducible traumatic dislocation of the fourth, fifth metatarsophalangeal joint with closed manipulation. So open reduction was performed. Fixation with Kirschner wire was necessary because of joint instability. This report demonstrates the phathology and the reason why closed manipulation failed.

Irreducible dislocation of great toe interphalangeal joint with incarcerated sesamoid is a rare condition, with only a few cases reported in literature. We describe two cases of dislocation of interphalangeal joint which were diagnosed by plain radiographs and three dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) and successfully treated with open reduction without excision of sesamoid through dorsal approach along with literature pertinent to this condition.

A 25-year-old woman presented to the emergency room with a painful and swollen right forearm. She had just sustained an injury from an accident during which her arm was tightly wound by a rope as she was lowering a net from a fishing boat. Before being released, her arm was rigidly trapped in the rope for approximately ten minutes. Radiographs revealed anterior dislocation of the radial head that was accompanied by plastic deformation of the proximal ulna, manifested as a reversal of the proximal dorsal angulation of the ulna (PUDA); suggested a Monteggia equivalent fracture. With the patient under general anesthesia, we reduced the radial head by posterior compression at $90^{\circ}$ of elbow flexion and at neutral rotation of the forearm. However, the reduction was easily lost and the elbow re-dislocated with even slight supination or extension of the arm. After the osteotomy of the ulnar deformity to restore the PUDA to normal, the reduction remained stable even with manipulation of the arm. We found that the patient could exercise a full range of motion without pain at the 3-month follow-up, and neither residual instability nor degenerative changes were observed at the final 3-year follow-up.

Background Fracture-dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint is a relatively common injury. Various treatments for fracture-dislocation of the PIP joint have been reported. In the present study, we performed open reduction through a midlateral incision using absorbable sutures to reduce the small bone fragments and performed volar plate repair. Methods We treated nine patients with fracture-dislocation of the PIP joint with small fractured bone fragments too small for pinning or screw fixation. Patients with volar plate injury were treated with open reduction and volar plate repair at the periosteum of the middle phalangeal bone base by the modified Kessler method using absorbable sutures. All patients were placed in a dorsal aluminum extension block splint, which maintained the PIP joint in approximately 30 degrees of flexion to avoid excessive tension on the sutured volar plate. Results At a mean final follow-up of postoperative 9 months, all patients were evaluated radiographically and had adequate alignment of the PIP joint and reduction of the displaced bone fragments. Range of motion was improved and there were no complications. Conclusions This technique is an excellent alternative to the current method of treating patients with fracture-dislocations that include small fragments that are too small for pinning or screw fixation. It is a less invasive surgical method and enables stable reduction and early exercise without noticeable complications.

The interphalangeal joint (IPJ) of the hallux has received little attention compared with the first metatarsophalangeal joint. But, the hallucal IPJ has several disorders such intra-articular fractures, dorsal dislocation, alignment disorder, and inflammatory or degenerative arthritis. Among these disorders septic arthritis of the IPJ of the hallux is rare. We report a case of sepsis of the hallucal IPJ and adjacent underlying osteomyelitis without neuropathic problem and was performed through infected soft tissue and osseous debridement, temporary antibiotic-impregnated cement spacer, and delayed intercalary allogenic fibular bone graft with K-wire fixation.

A Korean goral (immature, female) was presented with paraplegia following motor vehicle trauma. The patient was diagnosed with an L5-6 vertebral fracture-luxation based on digital radiographs. Surgical reduction and stabilization of the fracture-luxation were performed via a dorsal approach to the lumbar spine. It was confirmed in surgery that the patient had L5-7 spinous process fractures, L6 bilateral articular process fractures, and an L5-6 luxation. Free fragments were removed and the luxation was reduced. During reduction, caudodorsal dislocation of the L5 caudal vertebral end plate was discovered and the displaced end plate was removed. The L5-6 vertebral luxation was stabilized using pins and bone cement. However, the presence of an intact spinal cord was not confirmed. Two weeks postoperatively the patient became dyspneic and arrested. A necropsy was performed, which revealed that the surgical stabilization was intact. Pulmonary edema was identified and the immediate cause of death was determined to be systemic inflammatory response syndrome.

The tarsometatarsal joint complex is formed by articulation of the five metatarsal bases with the three cuneiform bones and the cuboid bone. Fracture-dislocation of tarsometatarsal area are difficult to recognize on standard radiographs. The exact diagnosis is occasionally delayed. As a result, improper treatment and late sequelae remains. We decided to make a study of patients with normal foot radiographs on 200 cases. Standard radiographic evaluation was used to study the normal variants of the foot and to evaluate the coincided alignment of the lisfranc joint. Accurate accessment on AP & lateral & $30^{\circ}$ oblique projection of radiographs are very adventageous & important, and next final outcome was detected. : 1. Coincided alignment below 1mm and unfolded lisfranc joint on AP projection was well visalized on 1st cuneiform-metatarsal lateral border and 2nd cuneiform-metatarsal medial border. 2. Coincided alignment below 1mm and unfolded lisfranc joint on oblique projection was well visualized on 2nd cuneiform-metatarsal lateral border and 3rd cuneiform-metatarsal medial border and 3rd cuneform-metatarsal lateral border. 3. More proximal location of 2nd lisfranc joint compared to another joint was 196 cases (98%). It is due to inceleration of 2nd metatarsal base between 3rd & 1st cuneiform. 4. 3rd lisfranc joint was volarward position compared to 2nd listranc on lateral projection at 191 cases (95.5%). It's due to anterior covexity of lisfranc joint. 5. Wide dorsal sided 2nd lisfranc is investigated at 189 cases (94.5%). Because of it. 2nd & 3rd lisfrances are mainly volar dislocated usually. 6. Notching on 5th metatarsal base is visible on 171 cases (85.5%). 7. 4th lisfranc joint had offset normally within $2\sim3mm$ at 98 cases (49%). 8. 5th Lisfranc joint had normally offset within $2\sim3mm$ at 99 cases (49.5%). 9. On lateral projection, slight dorsal location of cuneiform to metatarsal base is investigated at 82 cases (41%).
