The Community Orthopaedic Surgeon Taking Trauma Call: Pediatric Femoral Shaft Fracture Pearls and Pitfalls.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to examine the efficacy of a fluoroscopically guided hip capsulotomy. METHODS:Ten fresh-frozen paired cadaveric hips were injected under fluoroscopic guidance with saline sufficient to generate an intra-articular pressure greater than 58 mmHg. The pressure was monitored continuo...
