CORRELATION OF SURFACE TOPOGRAPHY AND OSSEOINTEGRATION
The surface of titanium implant plays a vital role in determining the biological response of bone healing. The adsorption of biomolecules and the subsequent interactions of cells on a surface determine the fate of the implant.

  NEWLY DEFINED COMMINUTED RADIAL HEAD FRACTURE
The Mason Classification is used to describe radial head fractures, which are the most common type of elbow fracture. Six patients presented to the senior surgeon’s clinic with a fracture that was in three main pieces with the main fragment dislocated. In these patients the fracture was fixed with the use of three headless compression screws. This resulted in good to excellent functional outcomes in all patients, with radiological and clinical union. We have shown that not all Mason type III fractures require plating, arthroplasty or excision.

  FEMORAL NECK FRACTURE IN END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE TREATED WITH OSTEOSYNTHESIS
Femoral neck fractures in end stage renal disease patient is unique. General treatment protocol gives unsatisfactory results and a large number of complications have been reported. It is suggested that regardless of patient age, non-displaced fractures should be treated with osteosynthesis, while hemiarthroplasty is a better choice for displaced fractures.
