    Abstract Major earthquakes can cause crush injuries. Damage to buildings is a major cause of death and injury in earthquakes, especially when solid building materials such as concrete are used. The most common injuries following earthquakes are fractures, compartment syndromes, major soft tissue injuries, and crush injuries. This highlights the importance of planning at the national level before natural disasters occur. The aim of this study was to review what needs to be done in orthopedic and trauma services in the field, during transfer, and in advanced treatment centers after an earthquake disaster in our country, where high-intensity earthquakes occur. In conclusion, strategic planning in the field, during transfer, and in advanced treatment centers can reduce the pressure on the health system in similar mass disasters.

    Abstract Purpose: Periprosthetic infection is one of the main reasons for revision surgery after hip arthroplasty. The purpose of the present study is to compare the reliability of triple-phase bone scintigraphy (TPBS) in the diagnosis of periprosthetic infection between cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) and bipolar hemiarthroplasty (BHA). Methods: In this retrospective study, 52 patients were analyzed; 33 of them were performed with THA and 19 of them were performed with BHA. The exclusion criteria were cementation in previous surgery, romatological joint disorders, periprosthetic fracture and malignancy history. C reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation (ESR) rate results were recorded preoperatively. Tissue samples from the different areas periprosthetic tissue were obtained for histopathological examination and sample tissue culture. Results: In the present study, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 90.9%, 77.3% and 81.8%, respectively, for THA and 77.8%, 60.0% and 68.4%, respectively, for BHA. Positive predictive values for THA and BHA were 66.7% and 63.6%, and negative predictive values were 94.4% and 75.0%, respectively. Conclusions: Due to the higher sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, TPBS has a more reliable diagnostic value for cementless THA in the diagnosis of periprosthetic infection compared to cementless BHA.
