The document describes a new surgical technique called biplane double-supported screw fixation (BDSF) for treating femoral neck fractures in patients with osteoporosis. BDSF involves placing two screws in different coronal planes to provide stronger fixation than conventional methods. It establishes two supporting points - the femoral calcar and proximal diaphysis cortex - to better distribute loads. Early results found BDSF achieved bone union in 97.6% of patients and had a lower failure rate compared to conventional fixation. The technique provides improved stability and is particularly suitable for unstable fractures in osteoporotic bone.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

F technique for fracture neck femur
1. BIPLANE DOUBLE-SUPPORTED
SCREW FIXATION (F-TECHNIQUE):
A METHOD
OF SCREW FIXATION AT OSTEOPOROTIC FRACTURES
OF THE FEMORAL NECK
DR RAVINDRA CHAURASIA
DNB orthopedics
MAX HOSPITAL VAISHALI
2. INTRODUCTION
• The femur neck fracture is one of the most common
traumatic injury in the elderly.
• Osteosynthesis is associated with poor results in 21–46%.
• Osteosynthesis failure can be due to insufficient
reduction, unstable fixation or poor-quality osteoporotic
bone.
3. CONVENTIONAL FIXATION
• Multiple cannulated cancellous screw have a
compression effect at the fracture site. It also avoids
re displacement and rotation.
• Three cancellous screws, placed parallel to each other
and parallel to the femoral neck axis, (complication 20
to 48%) (Asnis 1994, Lu-Yao 1994, Tidermark 2003, Blomfeldt 2005, Rogmark 2006,
Gjertsen 2010.
4. NUMBER OF SCREWS
• Cannulated cancellous screws are thick in diameter.
• Diameter of the neck of the femur and the width of the
lateral cortex is relatively smaller in Indian patients.
• Therefore it is not always possible to fix femoral neck
fractures with three cannulated cancellous screws.
• Springer et al suggested that the fourth screw adds little
in additional fixation.
5. • Peripheral placement of screws in the femoral neck
(rather than central placement) to improve the strength of
fixation.
• Mizrahi et al specifically recommended an inverted
triangle configuration as it was stronger construct.
• The apex-proximal configuration was found to slip in the
cancellous bone because insufficient cortical purchase.
6. The starting position is above the
level of the lesser trochanter, and
the apex-proximal configuration
of the screws can be seen.
(B) A subtrochanteric femur
fracture resulted after a fall from
the standing position
Subtrochanteric femur fractures after screw fixation have
been documented in all age groups.
7. • A triangular screw configuration with its apex distal
would withstand greater forces than an apex-proximal
configuration.
• A larger stress riser is created when two screws are
placed distally (because of the
larger cortical defect), and
fracture will occur at lower
loads in this area.
8. FAILURE OF CONVENTIONAL FIXATION
• Lack of stability of the construction regarding
varus stress
• Lack of sliding phenomenon.
• Inability to move the entry point of the screws
distally into the solid diaphyseal cortex
9. • This may be attributed to several factors e.g. the entry
points below the level of the lesser trochanter, screws
placed too close together, and violation of the lateral cortex
with multiple guide-wire .
• This leads to the development of a stress riser along the
lateral aspect of the proximal femur.
10. BIPLANE DOUBLE-SUPPORTED SCREW
FIXATION
• BDSF implements two calcar buttressed
screws, oriented in different coronal
inclinations and intended to provide sufficient
stability during various physical activities.
11. • It provides strongest possible posterior cortical support
for the fixation construct.
• Biomechanically, the most effective component is the
distal screw placed at steeper angle and supported on a
large area.
12. The distal screw (red) is placed in the dorsal oblique plane, whereas the middle (blue) and
proximal screw (grey) are oriented in the anterior oblique plane. The distal and the middle
screws are calcar-buttressed with coronal inclinations of 150°–165° and 130°–140°,
respectively.
13. • It establish two supporting points. The solid cortex of
the calcar acts as a medial supporting point for the
screws. This supporting point works under pressure.
• The entry points of the distal and the middle screws
in the solid cortex of the proximal diaphysis, acts as a
lateral supporting point for the two screws.
14. BDSF ADVANTAGES
1) Provide antero-posterior bending stability of the neck.
2) Due to the biplane placement, enough space for a third
screw is provided.
3) due to the increase in the distance between the two
supporting points, the weight borne by the bone is
reduced.
4) The entry points of the screws are positioned wide apart
from each other so the tensile forces spread over a
greater surface of the lateral cortex and thus the risk of a
subtrochanter fracture decreases significantly.
5) The screw, placed at a highly increased angle, works in a
direction close to the direction of the loading force.
15. INDICATION
• Patient in which primary arthroplasty is contraindicated
Fractures of the Garden types from I to IV.
• Implants: 7.3-mm self-tapping cannulated screws.
16. REDUCTION
• Closed reduction (mild traction, slight abduction and
internal rotation of the limb).
• criteria for acceptable reposition: no varus, and valgus
alignment of 0°–15° on AP view, maximum
displacement of 2 mm, up to 20° ventral and 10° dorsal
angular displacement on lateral view.
• Open reduction, through Watson–Jones approach
17. TECHINIQUE
• A straight lateral incision is performed, starting at the
level of the lower border of the greater trochanter,
with a distal length of 6–10 cm. Following a direct
lateral transmuscular approach, a stripping of the
periosteum of the lateral diaphysis over a distance of
6–7 cm is performed.
18. PLACEMENT AND POSITIONING OF GUIDING WIRES
• First: 5–7 cm distally from the lower border of the
greater trochanter, inclined at an angle of 150°–165°
and directed posteriorly, so that after it touches onto
the “calcar” tangentially on AP view, the wire goes
into the dorsal third of femoral head.
19. • The second guiding wire is placed is at 2–4 cm
proximally from the distal wire, inclined at an angle of
130°–140°, directed anteriorly so that it goes in frontal
one-third of the femoral head (on lateral view) and into
the distal one-third of the femoral head (on AP view).
20. • Third : 1.5–2.0 cm proximally from the middle wire
and parallel to it. It goes into the front one-third of the
femoral head (on lateral view) and into the proximal
one-third of the femoral head (on AP view).
21. INSERTION OF SCREWS
• Measurement of the screw lengths and drilling with a 5-
mm cannulated reamer.
• The middle and proximal screws are placed first because
they are perpendicular to the fracture surface.
• Before placing the middle and distal screws, overdrill their
holes in the lateral cortex using a 7-mm cannulated
reamer.
• Then foot traction is released, impaction of the fracture
with an additional tightening up of the screws.
• Finally, the distal screw is placed.
• All three screws are inserted subchondrally (less than 5
mm), and no screw is placed in the central zone of the
femoral neck on lateral view.
22. AFTER-TREATMENT
• FWB Mobilization can be done after surgery without
limitations in the range of motion.
• In younger patients(< 55 years) PWB (30 kg) during the
first 8 weeks. (enough frictional stability at the fracture
site can not be achieved by intraoperative impaction
because of their dense bone).
23. Comparision b/w conventional and BDSF
The load acting at point A is pressure in a distal direction and denoted as A = FL/a
The load acting at point B is pressure in a proximal direction and denoted as B = A - F.
Static models of the implant. a A beam on elastic foundation; b A simple beam with an
overhanging end.
F load, L = length of beam; a distance between points A and B
24. CONVENTIONAL METHODS
• The screws are often located in the soft cancellous bone
near the axis of the femoral neck, without any cortical
support.
• Due to the lack of two solid supporting points, the
implant works like a beam on an elastic foundation.
• The elastic foundation is realized by the cancellous bone.
25.
26. RESULTS
• 42 males and 165 females, aged 75.7 ± 10.3 (range 49–
99)
• The average follow-up period was 29.6 months,
• Five complications were developed within less than 12
months.
• Radiographical results
• The bone union was seen in 97.6%
• One case with pseudoarthrosis and 1 nonunion with
AVN (Garden IV fracture).
• Fixation failure occurred in 5 patients.
27.
28. CONCLUSION
• Femoral neck fracture stability can be substantially
increased applying BDSF due to better cortical screw
support and screw orientation.
• The more unstable fracture, the better BDSF stability
is in comparison to CFIX.
