    Classification system in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
    (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2014) Kılıç B.; Zekioğlu A.; Çatıkkaş F.; Yücel A.S.
    Scoliosis is defined as the lateral spinal curvature with a 10° Cobb angle or above. Idiopathic scoliosis accounts for nearly 80% of the structural coronal deformities. According to the age groups, it is classified as infantile (the ages between 0-3), juvenile (ages between 4-9), adolescence (the age of 10 - until maturity). King classification and Lenke classification are the mostly widely used classifications in idiopathic scoliosis classification systems. Although the classification system presented by Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) is simple and easy to understand, Lenke system is considered more advantageous for practical use. Lenke classification is the most widely used and accepted classification system. © 2014 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.

    Femur intertrochanteric fractures
    (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2014) Kılıç B.; Zekioğlu A.; Yücel A.S.; Çatıkkaş F.
    Fractures that occur in the area between large and small trochanter are called intertrochanteric femur fractures. Beside femur neck fractures, intertrochanteric femur fractures are one of the most significant health problems seen in old patients. Over 75% of intertrochanteric fractures occur as a result of simple falls while walking or standing. For intertrochanteric fractures, bipolar leinbach endoprosthesis is the priority treatment option, which is applied easily without any need for further equipment such as much scopy or traction, and allows for mobility in a postoperative short time. Being an easy, effective and safe biological diagnosis method and preferred especially in high risky cases, it also ensures bone setting with little damage to periphery tissue through closed reduction and external fixator. In our study, we involved 38 patients with traumatic femur intertrochanteric fractures to whom we applied partial leinbach endoprosthesis. Patients with intertrochanteric fractures who applied late following the fracture were not included in our study. All of our patients were operated and mobilized in 48 hours following the fracture, and no serious complications occurred. © 2014 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.

    Pupils' attitudes for physical education lesson and science lesson at primary schools: A comparative example of ankara province
    (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2014) Korkmaz M.; Yücel A.S.; Kiliç B.; Çatikkaş F.; Tuna D.C.
    The aim of this study is to examine primary school pupils' attitudes for physical education and science lessons in a comparative and applied fashion. Totally (N=452) primary school pupils participated in our study. Participants were selected randomly. In this applied study, a questionnaire with 5-point likert scale that consisted of two parts for the two lessons was administrated. Data as a result of the study were subject to reliability analysis, and the Cronbach Alpha coefficient was found as 0.921. Kaiser-MeyerOlkin, Barlett's Test of Sphericity analysis, Scree Plotgraph, Factor analysis, Correlation analysis, Tukey, and t-test were applied. It was found that the research was meaningful with Item-Total correlations having a p<0.01 significance level. As a result of the study, it was found that participants performed greater attitudes and importance for science, displayed higher interest and attention towards science lessons, and had thoughts that they will need science lessons more in the future. As for their attitudes for physical education lesson, it was seen that they were lower than those for science lessons. Among the main reasons are ideas and opinions that pupils do insufficient sports activities, sports equipment and materials are insufficient, and sports areas are ineligible for the types they wish to do. © 2014 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.

    Carpal tunnel syndrome
    (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2015) Kiliç B.; Yücel A.S.; Yaman Ç.; Çatikkas F.; Hergüner G.
    Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common periphery nerve-trapping syndrome. CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome) surgery is the most often operation around the world. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs as a result of nerve compression at wrist level and generally appears with affective and motor findings. This symptom is also called hand acroparesthesia, tenar palsy, tardy median palsy, median neuritis, median tenar neuritis and so on. It is seen more in adult females over the age of 40. First symptoms are generally burn up, hyperkinesia, weakness, pain, pins and needles, or loss of sense that occur in the area where median nerve is eligible for bilateral spread on hand. Neuronal conduction and electrodiagnostic examinations including needle electromyography are the most common auxiliary methods used for diagnosis. Treatment procedures are generally divided into two, being conservative and surgery. Most commonly applied method is open surgical release. In our study, we shared the perfect results obtained from 186 patients with carpal tunnel syndrome whom we applied surgery under local anesthesia without admission to the hospital and we followed up from outpatient clinics. We also showed that with a practical method as we applied, patients could return their social and work lives within a short period of time. © 2015 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.

    Treatment results of arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, 5- year follow-up
    (American-Eurasian Network for Scientific Information, 2015) Kılıç B.; Yücel A.S.; Zekioğlu A.
    There are turning and other impulses done during sportive activities are among the most seen factors of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. It is also claimed that femur intercondylar notch sizes may have an impact on the etiological factors that cause ACL injuries and ACL is injured when it‟s on the lateral femoral condilin medial side and especially the narrowness of intercondylar notch increases the risk of injury. In order for diagnosis and treatment of ACL injuries, arthroscopy method is applied together with the physical examination. In our study we helped 62 amateur and professional athletes return to their sportive activities within 4.3 months by applying semitendinous and gracilis tendon arthroscopic ACL treatment with autograft. 5 patients experienced ACL rupture, 14 patients complained about anterior knee pain, 9 of the patients had tibial staple scratchiness while 7 patients had chronic pains around patellar tendon and near tibial tunnel. © 2015 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.
