0 | Advances in arthroscopic surgery: Indications and outcomes | Diagnosis and Treatment of Osteochondritis Dissecans AUC | PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To examine recent trends in the use of arthroscopic surgical techniques to address musculoskeletal problems. The review is particularly timely given the rapidly expanding range of indications for diagnostic and therapeutic arthroscopic procedures involving virtually every peripheral joint. RECENT FIN... |
0 | CD20 antigen expression by lymphoproliferative disorders after kidney transplant is independently associated with a poor outcome: PTLD.Int survey | MSTS 2022 - Metastatic Disease of the Humerus | OBJECTIVES: Antigen expression by neoplastic cells is important because of its effects on the behavior and survival of patients. We sought to gather data on renal transplant recipients who had developed posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders in their posttransplant era, and had a documented report on CD20 antigen... |
0 | Expression and localization of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/Hcs24/CCN2) in osteoarthritic cartilage | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | OBJECTIVE: The investigation of the expression and localization of connective tissue growth factor/hypertrophic chondrocyte-specific gene product 24/CCN family member 2 (CTGF/Hcs24/CCN2) in normal and osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage, and quantification of CTGF/Hcs24-positive cells. METHODS: Cartilage samples of patients ... |
0 | Dental treatment and orthopedic implants--a malpractice case | Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures | A patient who required a revision of a six-year-old hip prosthesis five months following root canal therapy and removal of a root tip subsequently sued his dentist for malpractice.

0 | Giant synovial cyst of thigh: a rare entity | PJI DX Updated Search | Synovial cyst occurs secondary to traumatic, degenerative, or inflammatory conditions. Synovial cysts represent abnormal distension of bursae, which communicate with the joint. Giant synovial cysts are typically due to rheumatoid arthritis, other causes being trauma and synovial pseudoarthrosis. A 33-year-old male pres... |
0 | Isolation of anaerobic and aerobic bacteria from clean surgical wounds: an experimental and clinical study | Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures | A pad imprint method was evaluated for quantitative sampling of anaerobic and aerobic bacteria from clean surgical wounds. The best recovery of bacteria from the pads was obtained when they were treated with a rinsing solution in a 'Stomacher' apparatus. Pads of three different fabrics were compared, but no difference ... |
