Okulongoosa amagumba mu kitundu ekimu (UKA) ngeri ya kulongoosa mu kifo ky’okulongoosa amagulu gonna (TKA) okujjanjaba obulwadde bw’amagumba mu kitundu ekimu. Wabula, ebikwata ku muwendo gw’okulemererwa kwa UKA biraga nti omuwendo gw’okuwangaala mu myaka 7 gwa bitundu 74%, nga kino kiri wansi nnyo okusinga ogwa TKA (92%). Wadde ng’ensonga z’abalwadde bennyini zongera ku bulabe bw’okulemererwa, gamba ng’abalwadde abato n’omuwendo gw’omubiri ogw’amaanyi (BMI) guyinza okwongera ku bulabe bw’okulemererwa kwa UKA, ensobi z’ekikugu mu kulongoosa zibadde zitwalibwa ng’ensonga enkulu ez’obulabe eri okulemererwa amangu. Mu UKA, kizibu okutuuka ku kukwatagana okulungi kw’ebitundu by’omubiri ebikoleddwa mu ngeri ey’ekinnansi n’okuwanvuwa waggulu (overhang). Ekisenge ky’omugongo (tibial prosthesis) kirina okuba n’obunene n’okuteekebwa mu ngeri ekendeeza ku kunyiiga kw’ebitundu ebigonvu, era okuwanvuwa kw’ekisambi okw’omu makkati okusukka mm 3 kiragiddwa okuba eky’obulabe ennyo eri okukendeeza ku Oxford Knee Score (OKS) n’okweyongera kw’obulumi. Ekigendererwa ekikulu eky’okunoonyereza kuno kyali kya kwekenneenya ebiva mu bujjanjabi n’okukuba ebifaananyi okutwalira awamu ebya UKA.

Okumenya ekikolo ky’omugongo (HSF) kitera nnyo, nga kikola ebitundu nga 1% ku 5% ku kumenya kwonna. Obulwadde buno buli mwaka buli 13 ku 20 ku buli bantu 100,000 era kizuuliddwa nti bweyongera n’emyaka.HSF erina engabanya y’emyaka mu ngeri bbiri, ng’entikko esooka ebeerawo mu basajja abali wakati w’emyaka 21 ne 30 egy’...

Choice of internal fixation versus joint replacementMu kiseera kino, okutwalira awamu kirowoozebwa nti hollow nail internal fixation for femoral neck fracture erina ebirungi by’obudde obutono obw’okulongoosebwa, obuvune obutono n’omuwendo omutono, naye abalwadde abakadde abasinga obungi bawerekerwako obulwadde bw’amagumba, kale okutebenkera kwa

Okumenya kw’omugongo mu bitundu by’omubiri (intertrochanteric fracture of the femur), era okumanyiddwa nga intertrochanteric fracture, kwe kumenya kwa ‘extra-articular capsule fracture’. Ebikulu ebiraga okumenya wakati w’emisuwa (intertrochanteric fracture) kwe bulumi obw’amaanyi mu kitundu n’okuzimba, ecchymosis ey’amaanyi, obutasobola kw’omulwadde kuyimirira oba kutambula, obumpi obw’amaanyi

Metacarpal fracture kye ki?Metacarpals ge magumba amawanvu ag’omukono. Buli mukono gulina amagumba ataano aga metacarpal, emu ya engalo ensajja ate endala ya buli lunwe. Metacarpal kwe kwatika oba okukutuka mu limu ku magumba gano.Kiki ekivaako okumenya kw’omukono?Okumenya kuno kutera kuva ku kugwa oba okumenya ennyo
