    Abstract Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess whether variances in Achilles tendon elongation are linked to dissimilarities in the plantar pressure distribution following two different surgical approaches for an Achilles tendon rupture (ATR).
    Methods: All patients who were treated with open or minimally invasive surgical repair (MIS) and were over 2 years post their ATR were eligible for inclusion. A total of 65 patients with an average age of 43 ± 11 years were included in the study. Thirty-five patients were treated with open repair, and 30 patients were treated with MIS. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) and ATR Score (ATRS). Achilles tendon elongation was measured using axial and sagittal magnetic resonance imaging scans. Plantar pressure measurements for the forefoot, midfoot and hindfoot during gait were divided into percentages based on total pressure, measured in g/cm
    Results: The average AOFAS score was found 'excellent' (93 ± 2.8) in the MIS group, while it was found 'good' (87.4 ± 5.6) in the open repair group. In addition, the MIS group showed significantly superior ATRS scores (78.8 ± 7.4) compared to the open repair group (56.4 ± 15.4) (p < 0.001). The average tendon elongation in the MIS group was 11.3 ± 2 mm, while it was 17.3 ± 4.3 mm (p < 0.001) in the open repair group. While the open repair group showed significantly higher plantar pressure distribution in the initial contact and preswing phases compared to uninjured extremities, there was no significant difference between the uninjured extremities and the MIS group.
    Conclusion: In conclusion, the findings of this study demonstrated that minimally invasive surgery was associated with less tendon elongation, more proximity to the plantar pressure distributions of the uninjured extremity and superior clinical outcomes compared to open surgical repair. Therefore, minimally invasive surgery may be considered a more suitable option for acute Achilles tendon repair to achieve overall better outcomes.

    Abstract Objective: The objectives of this study were to: (1) determine all the potential risk factors defined in the literature for cut-out after proximal femoral nail anti-rotation in managing intertrochanteric fractures and (2) make a reliable prediction about the likelihood of cut-out by developing a quantitative scoring system.
    Methods: Four hundred eighty patients who were operated on for an intertrochanteric femur fracture were included in the study. The patients were evaluated retrospectively. Radiological parameters known to affect cut-out, including tip apex distance (TAD), calcarreferenced TAD (CalTAD), and reduction quality, were also used to evaluate the patients. Additionally, the classification of the fracture according to the cortical thickness index for osteoporosis, the Charlson comorbidity index for additional comorbidities, and the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Für Osteosynthesefragen classification were evaluated.
    Results: The cut-out rate among all patients was 7.2%. Cut-out risk could be predicted by gender, TAD, CalTAD, and reduction quality. Female gender, TAD > 29.45, CalTAD > 31.75, and acceptable or poor reduction quality significantly increased the cut-out risk. Based on the chi-square analysis, it was determined that there was a significant relationship between the cut-out risk and the variables of TAD, CalTAD, reduction quality, gender, and fracture type (P=.000, P=.000, P=.000, P=.008, P=.016, respectively). Logistic regression analysis showed a strong correlation between the newly developed scoring system and the risk of cut-out. The risk of cut-out increased 8.1 times in individuals with a score of more than 2 (P < .001).
    Conclusion: Female gender, TAD > 29.45, CalTAD > 31.75, and acceptable or poor reduction quality are the parameters found to be significant in determining the cut-out risk. With the newly developed scoring system, risks can be calculated for all situations that may occur according to the scores obtained by the patients. The cut-out risk increases significantly in patients with a score above 2 points.

    Abstract Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on the amputation level in patients undergoing fasciotomy with a Mangled Extremity Severity Score (MESS) score of ≥7 after 2023 Kahramanmaras earthquake.
    Patients and methods: Between February 6
    Results: Six (26.08%) of the patients had a bone fracture (n=2 forearm, n=1 femur, n=2 tibia, and n=1 ankle fracture). The mean number of HBOT session was 13.24±5.4 (range, 7 to 30) and the mean duration of HBOT was 26.5±10.8 (range, 14 to 60) h. The mean MESS score was 9.96±1.36 (range, 7 to 12). All of the patients were trapped under the rubble with a mean time of 12.3±5.4 (range, 6 to 23) h. All fasciotomies were performed within the first 30 h. Twenty-two of the patients were amputated at the level previously determined by the experienced trauma surgeons. The amputation level changed in only one patient. After 38 h of HBOT, transradial amputation was performed to the patient in whom transhumeral amputation level was determined previously. None of the patients had any adverse event related to HBOT.
    Conclusion: Our study results suggest that the MESS is a useful scoring system for amputation decision after a high-energy trauma, such as an earthquake, with a high accuracy rate. The outcomes of HBOT are not satisfactory for high-energy traumas, such as earthquakes, in those requiring fasciotomy having more muscle necrosis and a MESS score of ≥7.

    Abstract Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the choice of approach on bleeding in patients with femoral neck fractures who are on clopidogrel. Materials and methods The study included patients over the age of 60 who were taking clopidogrel and had hemiarthroplasty surgery for a femoral neck fracture. A total number of 61 patients were evaluated in the study. Patients who underwent surgery using the posterior approach were assigned to group 1, while those who underwent surgery using the anterolateral approach were assigned to group 2. Preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin levels, transfusion needs, red blood cell (RBC) loss, duration of surgery, and the length of hospitalization were evaluated. Results The mean age of the patients was 79.36 ± 7.72 years. Twenty-nine patients were included in group 1 and 32 patients were included in group 2. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, and comorbidities (p=0.74, p=0.12, p=0.23, respectively). There were no significant differences between group 1 and group 2 in terms of duration of surgery and length of hospital stay (p=0.41, p=0.37, respectively). Also, there was no significant difference in RBC loss between group 1 and group 2 (p=0.37). Conclusion The use of anterolateral or posterior approaches has no effect on bleeding in clopidogrel-treated patients having hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture. The authors recommend surgeons choose the approach according to their experience and patients' needs.
