Comparison of suprapatellar and infrapatellar tibial nailing: more anatomic entry point and fracture reduction via the suprapatellar approach

Çiçekli, Özgür; Şükür, Erhan; Türker, Mehmet (E-CENTURY PUBLISHING CORP, 2019)

Background: The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiographical results of two groups of patients treated with intramedullary nailing for tibial fractures via suprapatellar and infrapatellar routes. Materials ...
Comparison of two techniques in achieving planned correction angles in femoral subtrochanteric derotation osteotomy

Türker, Mehmet; Meric Cirpar; Ozgur Cetik; Cagri Senyucel; Ibrahim Tekdemir; Mehmet Yalcinozan (LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2012)

Increased femoral anteversion in cerebral palsy alters biomechanics of gait. Femoral subtrochanteric derotational osteotomies are increasingly performed to improve gait in cerebral palsy. The amount of angular correction ...
Coronoid fractures and elbow instability, general review and clinical presentation

Türker, Mehmet; Alihan Derincek; Murat Cinar; Mehmet Yalcmozan (SPRINGER, 2010)

Elbow joint has three articulations: (1) ulnatrochlear, (2) radiocapitellar, and (3) radioulnar. The olecranon and coronoid fossa of distal humerus separate medial and lateral columns of the distal humerus. Medial column ...
Distal medial epicondylectomy. A modification of partial medial epicondylectomy for cubital tunnel syndrome: preliminary results

Meric Cirpar; Türker, Mehmet; Cem Seyfi Ozuak (SPRINGER, 2012)

The medial epicondyle behaves as a fulcrum and a pulley that tethers the ulnar nerve during flexion. Excision of the distal half of the medial epicondyle sets the point of contact of the bone with the nerve proximally and ...
Dorsal cutaneous innervation of the hand with respect to anatomical landmarks: is there a safe zone?

Meric Cirpar; Ali Firat Esmer; Türker, Mehmet; Mehmet Yalcinozan (TURKISH JOINT DISEASES FOUNDATION, 2012)

Conclusion: Variability in these measurements in our study indicates that there is no surgical safe zone on the dorsum of the hand.
Effect of Partial, Distal Epicondylectomy on Reduction of Ulnar Nerve Strain: A Cadaver Study

Meric Cirpar; Türker, Mehmet; Mehmet Yalcinozan; Murat Eke; Feyzi Sahin (W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2013)

Clinical relevance The results of the present cadaveric study suggest that excision of the distal half of the medial epicondyle in cubital tunnel syndrome may decrease ulnar nerve strain effectively. The clinical effect ...
Effect of PLIF and TLIF on sagittal spinopelvic balance of patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis

Mustafa Uysal; Metin Ozalay; Alihan Derincek; Alauddin Kochai; Türker, Mehmet (TURKISH ASSOC ORTHOPAEDICS TRAUMATOLOGY, 2018)

Conclusion: PLIF and TLIF techniques have similar radiological results in restoring the sagittal spinopelvic balance in patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis. Both techniques are good options to achieve reduction ...
