Abstract	Introduction: We evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of capitellar fractures treated with modified screw insertion (inserting the first fixation screw anteroposteriorly and the second screw posteroanteriorly), a technique that can be applied with a minimally invasive lateral elbow approach. Materials and methods: Twenty-one isolated capitellum fractures that were surgically treated were included in the study. Fixation was achieved with two headless cannulated compression screws placed in anteroposterior and posteroanterior order using the modified lateral elbow approach. The Broberg-Morrey rating system was used to assess the post-operative functional status of the patients. Results: According to the Broberg-Morrey criteria, the mean score was 92.7 (77-100) and 13 cases had excellent, 7 had good, and 1 had fair results. None of the patients developed avascular necrosis or heterotopic ossification. According to the Broberg-Morrey arthrosis score, two cases had Grade 1 and one had Grade 2 arthrosis. One patient had a superficial wound site infection that was treated with antibiotics, and in one case a 60° extension loss was observed in the elbow. Conclusion: Treatment of isolated capitellar fractures with 2 headless screws placed anteroposteriorly and posteroanteriorly can provide stable fixation and is less traumatic for the elbow joint.

Abstract	Background: Scorpion envenomation is a common medical emergency in many countries, including Turkey. Severe systemic symptoms occur more easily in children and mortality rates are higher. The aim of this study is to describe the clinical effects and predictive factors affecting the clinical severity of scorpion envenomations in Western Turkey. Methods: Two hundred one children (138 mild cases, 34 moderate, and 29 severe) with scorpion envenomation aged between 1 month and -17 years were included in the study. The patients' demographic and laboratory characteristics were compared among clinical severity subgroups. Results: The patients' median age was 7 (4-11) years. The median age of the severe group was significantly lower than that of the mild and moderate groups (p < 0.001). Seventeen patients (8.5%) developed myocarditis, while no pulmonary edema was observed in any case. Leukocyte, neutrophil and platelet (PLT) counts, and plateletcrit (PCT) and glucose levels increased significantly with the severity of envenomation (p < 0.001). PLT counts and PCT levels exhibited positive correlation with leukocyte and neutrophil counts (p < 0.001, r = 0.781, r = 0.638, r = 0.772, and r = 0.629, respectively). Supraventricular tachycardia developed in 1 (5.9%) patient, and dilated cardiomyopathy in another (5.9%). No mortality occurred in any case. Conclusion: Increased PLT counts and PCT levels may be helpful in evaluating clinical severity in patients with scorpion sting envenomation. The possibility of myocarditis development in children should be remembered and cardiac enzymes should be checked, even if patients are asymptomatic and cardiac enzymes are normal on admission.

Abstract	Objective: This study aimed to evaluate clinical results, femoral head survival, and the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with precollapse osteonecrosis of the femoral head (OFH) (Steinberg stage II and III) treated by free vascularized fibula graft (FVFG) application. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 54 hips of 47 patients (39 males, eight females; mean age 36 ± 14 years) who underwent FVFG due to OFH, with at least two years of follow-up. The patient data, including Harris Hip Score (HHS), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and conversion to THA, were documented. Results: The right hip of 26 patients and the left hip of 28 patients were involved. Bilateral FVFG surgery was performed on seven patients due to bilateral OFH. The mean follow-up time was 5.5 (range 2-14) years. Survival of the femoral head was observed in 39 hips (72.2%), while the femoral head collapse was observed in 15 femoral heads (27.8%). The mean preoperative HHS increased from 46.5 (range=12-85) to 86.5 (range=33-100) postoperatively (P < 0.001). The mean preoperative VAS score improved from 8.2 (range=2-10) to 1.3 (range=0-10) postoperatively (P < 0.001). THA was performed on seven hips at a mean follow-up time of 1.8 years (range=0.7-3.3). There was no significant difference in the collapse rate between unilateral or bilateral OFH (P=0.175). A higher survival rate was observed in the Steinberg stage II femoral head patients compared to the stage III femoral head (P=0.021). Conclusion: This study has shown that FVFG surgery can be a good option for managing patients with Steinberg stage II and III precollapse OFH to prevent femoral head collapse and joint function. Level of evidence: Level IV, Therapeutic Study.

Abstract	Purpose: To assess the validity of simplified pain scales, including the Simplified Faces Pain Scale (S-FPS) and Simplified Concrete Ordinal Scale (S-COS) in preschool-age children who underwent adenotonsillectomy (T&A) by comparing the values of simplified pain scales with the Faces Pain Scale-Revised (FPS-R) and the Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) observational pain scale. Methods: The present study consisted of 100 pediatric patients between the ages of 3 and 6 years old who had T&A. A two-step pain assessment approach with S-FPS and S-COS and FPS-R and FLACC pain scales was performed with children with the help of their parents or caregivers at the 1st, 6th and 12th hours, and over the 7 days after surgery. Results: The mean scores of S-FPS and S-COS were higher than the mean FPS-R scores for each time point for all age groups. The total number of children reporting no pain was higher for FPS-R than S-FPS and S-COS for each age group and the difference was significant for 3-, 4- and 5- year olds. S-FPS, S-COS and FPS-R showed a moderate correlation with FLACC in all age groups, whereas the correlation values were not significantly different between the tests. Conclusion: In the present study, we found that S-FPS and S-COS were valid options for estimating pain in preschool children including 3- and 4-year-olds who underwent T&A.

Abstract	Objectives: In this study, we aimed to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of retrograde intramedullary Kirschner-wire (K-wire) fixation with those of plate-screw (PS) fixation. Patients and methods: A total of 98 metacarpal shaft fractures in 75 patients (65 males, 10 females; mean age: 31.2±10.9 years; range, 16 to 65 years) were included between January 2011 and December 2017. The total joint active range of motion (AROM) and grip strength of the healthy and broken hands were evaluated. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) scores were recorded. We compared surgery duration, number of fluoroscopy images, and cost-effectiveness for each technique. Results: The overall mean follow-up was 21.9 (range, 12 to 56) months. At the last follow-up, total joint AROM (p=0.072), VAS score (p=0.298), QuickDASH score (p=0.132), and hand grip strength (p=0.947) were similar between the groups. Radiological union occurred in the PS and K-wire groups in a mean of 5.84 (range, 3 to 8) and 4.46 (range, 3 to 20) weeks, respectively (p=0.173). A significant difference was found in surgery duration (p=0.021) and number of fluoroscopy images (p<0.05) between the PS and K-wire groups. Two wound complications were observed in the PS group and one with K-wires. Conclusion: Retrograde intramedullary K-wire fixation has certain advantages such as being less invasive and more accessible with shorter operation time, compared to PS fixation. Similar radiological and clinical scores can be obtained in patients undergoing retrograde intramedullary K-wire fixation or PS fixation.

Title translation	The Importance of Mycological Diagnosis: A Scedosporium apiospermum Complex Mycetoma Case Neglected For 20 Years.
Abstract	Scedosporium apiospermum complex members are opportunistic fungi that can be found in environments such as soil and polluted water. In this report, we aimed to present a case of mycetoma caused by Scedosporium apiospermum complex that developed in a 40-year-old female patient with immunocompetent system and diagnosed by fungal culture. In the anamnesis of the patient who admitted in 2015 with the complaint of more than one fistulized discharge wound, pain and swelling in the dorsal of the right hand and wrist; it was learned that her complaints started about 20 years ago with a slight swelling on the back of the wrist, and when it worsened, the abscess was drained and antibiotic treatment was initiated in a private surgical center. However, it was learned that she did not benefit from the treatments, and over time, fistulized, yellow-discharged wounds appeared on the back of her hand and wrist, and she had undergone various surgical interventions and used antibiotics. Routine laboratory tests of the patient, who did not have an underlying chronic disease, were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray findings were compatible with osteomyelitis and 'dot in circle' sign seen on MRI was characteristic for mycetoma. Pathological examination was interpreted as active chronic inflammatory reaction in the soft tissue and chronic osteomyelitis. Mycobacteria, bacteriological and fungal cultures of the two biopsy samples taken during surgical debridement and one month later were performed. Bacteriological and mycobacterial cultures were negative, while Scedosporium genus grew in the fungal cultures of the both samples. Isolates were identified as Scedosporium apiospermum/Pseudallescheria boydii with MALDI Biotyper (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) system and Scedosporium boydi by sequence analysis of the ITS region. The antifungal susceptibility tests were performed according to CLSI M38-A2 criteria, and were evaluated at the 72nd hour. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of fluconazole, caspofungin, amphotericin B, itraconazole, vorikonazole, posaconazole and isavuconazole were > 64 µg/ml, 16 µg/ml, 4 µg/ml, 16 µg/ml, 0.25 µg/ml, 2 µg/ml and 0.25 µg/ml, respectively. Voriconazole and terbinafine treatment was initiated. In the control performed in the 9th month of the treatment, it was observed that the complaints of discharge, pain and swelling were resolved, pain and swelling complaints were recovered, fistula tracts were closed and joint movements were painless. In the control MRI performed at 15th and 18th months, it was observed that there was no soft tissue involvement and the findings were compatible with osteoarthritis after infective osteomyelitis. This case whose longterm complaints improved with mycological diagnosis and appropriate treatment; reveals the importance of keeping mycological diagnosis in mind in chronic bone and soft tissue infections. Identifying the fungus to the genus and species level and arranging the treatment according to the antifungal susceptibility test results are very important in patient management.

Abstract	Introduction: Coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has spread to more than 200 countries worldwide. We aimed to present acute pancreatitis (AP) cases caused by SARS-CoV-2 viral infection. Methods: The study was conducted retrospectively between April 2020 and June 2020 in Necmettin Erbakan University Meram, Medical Faculty Hospital, and 150 hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 were included. The degree of acute pancreatitis was determined according to the Atlanta classification. Organ failures of the patients were evaluated in terms of respiratory, cardiovascular, and nephrology according to the modified Marshall scoring (MMS) system, and CTSI (Balthazar score) and Imrie score were determined. Modified Marshall score ≥ 2 was considered organ failure. Results: A total of 29 patients were diagnosed with acute pancreatitis. All 29 patients with pancreatitis had respiratory failure during hospitalization. After the diagnosis of pancreatitis, there was no change in respiratory failure. According to the Atlanta classification, 19 patients had mild AP and 10 patients had moderate AP. Patients with acute pancreatitis were scored according to the CTSI (Balthazar score), and there were no patients with ≥6 severe pancreatitis. The CTSI score of 4 patients was 3. In addition, the Imrie score of the patients was determined and 8 patients with Imrie score ≥ 3 were identified. Conclusion: The rate of pancreatic damage in SARS-CoV-2 infection was found to be 19% (

Abstract	Congenital radioulnar synostosis is a rare but challenging congenital elbow anomaly. Patients have severe restriction of forearm rotation, but most patients do not report flexion-extension limitation. Here we report the case of an 11-year-old boy with congenital radioulnar synostosis. He had painful snapping of the right elbow. Painful snapping, and locking occasionally, occurred at the right elbow during flexion of the elbow from extension. There was no history of trauma. Magnetic resonance imaging showed tissue structure between the radial head and capitellum. Open surgery was performed. We found a hypertrophic annular ligament between the radial head and capitellum. During flexion, the ligament got trapped between the radial head and capitellum. The hypertrophic ligament was removed. After the surgery, the patient had no recurrence of snapping or locking.
