[A comparison of the measurements with biochemical markers of bone turnover and bone mineral density in the assessment of the efficiency of osteoporosis treatment].
CONCLUSION: Urine NTx values respond to osteoporosis treatment faster than BMD measurements; thereby it may be suitable to use this parameter for the monitorization of the treatment efficiency.

[Efficacy of gonadal shielding in pediatric pelvis X-rays].
CONCLUSION: If we take into consideration that use of pelvic X-rays is essential and indispensable for the diagnosis of many pediatric pelvic diseases, we believe that technicians who are responsible for taking these X-rays should be better trained on the use of gonadal shields and designs of gonadal shields should be improved.

What is the economic burden of sports injuries?
This study argues that sport injuries can be considered as an important economic burden in terms of the direct and indirect costs it bears. As a result, strong and effective strategies are needed to prevent sports injuries. Sports medicine has also been attracted increasing attention in recent years, particularly. In this article, the importance of sports injuries and their economic costs as well as the role of sport medicine as a prevention method for sports injuries were discussed.

Arthroscopic resection of osteochondroma of the knee: two case reports.
Authors: Kesgin E, Çelik C, Karaoğlu S
Abstract
In this article, we report two cases of arthroscopic resection of symptomatic intraarticular osteochondroma of the knee. The first case was a 27-year-old male presenting with slowly progressive left knee pain while sitting and climbing up stairs. The second case was a 24-year-old female presenting with slowly progressive right knee pain while running downhill and squatting deeply. Preoperative radiographs and magnetic resonance images revealed an intraarticular, locally expanding, mineralized mass at adjacent to the trochlea of the femur for both patients. ...

Calcific mediopatellar plica: a case report.
Authors: Karaman İ, Güney A, Gürbüz K, Bilal Ö, Güney B
Abstract
A 38-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with the complaints of pain and swelling in his right knee for two years. He had mechanical symptoms for nearly six months. Merchant and lateral knee X-ray revealed calcification in the medial patellar retinaculum. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated increased ossification and cortical irregularity in the patella's medial and inferior pole. Due to long-term complaints of the patient, arthroscopy was planned with the preliminary diagnoses of patellofemoral chondromalacia, cartilag...

Closed reduction and fixation of locked symphysis pubis using tubular external fixator: a case report.
Authors: Halıcı M, Karaman İ, Kafadar İH, Argün AS
Abstract
Locked symphysis pubis is a kind of pelvic injury in which one pubic bone is jammed in the back of the other or opposite the obturator foramen following lateral compression forces. In this article, we present a 31-year-old female case of locked symphysis pubis which was treated by closed reduction using tubular external fixator. We believe that tubular external fixators are useful devices to perform closed reduction maneuvers for locked pelvic injuries and also help to reduce the need for open reduction and internal implant usage.

Transmission and scanning electron microscopy confirm that bone microstructure is similar in osteopenic and osteoporotic patients.
CONCLUSION: Although a significant difference in cortical thickness was found between the groups, transmission and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that bone microstructure shared similar characteristics in osteopenic and osteoporotic patients with low-energy femoral neck fracture, as it was in previous light microscopy study.
