Objectives. Sports injuries are one of the most common orthopedic injuries particularly in young and active populations. Football is the most popular sport among Saudis, and thus, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in clinics and emergency rooms in Saudi Arabia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of patients six months after ACL reconstruction in both hospitals and gym-based rehabilitation services and its impaction on the patients to return to sports and preinjury fitness levels. Methods. This is a retrospective case series of patients who underwent arthroscopically assisted ACL reconstruction using a hamstring autograft at our center. Data were gathered from January 2020 to December 2020. Patients were given a questionnaire about their visits to the orthopedic clinic in the 6th month after surgery. Results. Sixty patients with ACL reconstructions were studied. Noncontact sports were the leading cause of injuries (53.3%). The mean Lysholm score was 84.9 (SD 3.45) out of 100 after six months of follow-up, and the mean Tegner score was 4.77 (SD 1.06) out of 10 points. The Lysholm score was excellent (>90) among 5% (n= 3), good (84–90) among 60% (n= 36), and fair (65–83) among 35% (n= 21). As a result, we observed that the duration of postoperative rehabilitation has a significant relationship with the fitness level (X2= 18.711; p = 0.001 ).Conclusion. The Lysholm knee scoring scale and the Tegner activity scale showed that arthroscopically assisted ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft has a successful and functional outcome after which the patient returns to sports or regains the preinjury level of fitness level depends on the rehabilitation.The period and types of preoperative and postoperative rehabilitation have a direct impact on the return to fitness levels and normal daily life activities.

Pediatric orthopedics contains various musculoskeletal deformities. Functional distortion, biological and structural abnormalities are the common denominator among congenital or acquired pediatric deformities. Leg bowing, shortening, and catastrophic fracture representing the predominant characteristics of congenital pseudoarthrosis of the tibia in this case report. Plate and screw internal fixation with bone graft augmentation, and complementary pharmacological therapy by zoledronic acid peri-operation are used in the treatment plan after failure of conservative and rigid external fixation trial. An accepted healing, restoration of the mechanical alignment, and minor shortening were the final results of 4 years follow up.

Septic arthritis (SA) is a secondary infective disease due to joints inflammation. It often appears with mono- or oligoarticular acute arthritis that frequently leads to an emergency department (ED) visit with need for prolonged hospitalization. SA is an orthopedic emergency that can threaten both life and limb due to its potential rapid destruction of the joint with fulminant sepsis, causing significant disability within hours to days. Delayed or poor treatment of septic arthritis can lead to irreversible joint damage with consequent disability in addition there to significant mortality rate. Management includes early detection and treatment with antibiotics, joint aspiration, and consultation for orthopedic surgery as potential operative management. This review aims to summarize current evidence regarding evaluation and management of septic arthritis in emergency department, and to highlight the difficulties of diagnosing and managing SA that face the healthcare providers to help overcome those difficulties and to recommend further studies to be done regarding those problems and their solutions.

Introduction Rickets involves the softening of bones in children and osteopenia with disordered calcification, leading to a higher proportion of osteoid tissue prior to epiphyseal closure in children. Rickets is common in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. The peak age of prevalence is 3–18 months. Signs include bone tenderness, easy fracture, early bone deformity, delayed closure of fontanelles, and softening of skull bones (craniotabes). Objective This study assesses knowledge in the AlBaha region about rickets’ clinical presentation, causes, complications, and prevention, as well recommendations to educate the community. Methods In this descriptive cross-sectional study, a questionnaire was administered to people in the AlBaha region to assess knowledge related to rickets in children. The sample size was calculated using calculator.net, and the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 2 was used for analyses with P < 0.05 used for significance. Results Of the 692 participants, only 5% reported rickets in their children, but the majority (99%) had heard about rickets. Participants’ knowledge of rickets’ complications was highest for spinal vertebral deformities and lowest for skin deformities. 55% of the participants thought there was no need to stop breast-feeding once rickets is diagnosed, 62% preferred to add fortified milk to the diet, 67% thought that a suitable duration for sunlight exposure is 10 to 15 minutes per day, and 46% thought that sunrise and sunset are suitable times for sun exposure. Preventive measures were believed to depend on having enough exposure to sunlight (77% of participants) and eating vitamin-D rich foods (63%). The majority believed that failure to grow is the most obvious symptom, inadequate milk is the main cause, and exclusive breast-feeding is a major risk factor. Conclusion Most people have heard about rickets, but knowledge about complications and prevention varies.

Often in extremely preterm newborns in the early postnatal daysproblems in fluid and electrolyte balance occur Due to excessive insensible water loss and renal immaturity. The dietary care of newborn newborns is challenged by the demands of growth and organ development. The stress of a serious disease makes it much more difficult to get enough nourishment. Newborns andespecially premature newborns must be assessed thoroughly for fluid and electrolytes balance. Calculating the fluid and electrolyte demand for sustaining metabolic activities, replacing losses (evaporative, third space, external), and considering pre-existing fluid imbalance are all part of effective fluid and electrolyte management. When a neonate's size or condition prevents them from receiving enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition can help them grow and thrive. Although eating through the gastrointestinal tract is the recommended method of nutritional management, some situations necessitate the use of PN as an adjuvant or sole treatment. In this article we discuss fluid electrolytes and Nutritional management using parenteral nutrition.
