0 | Effect of repeated manipulation on range of motion in patients with stiff total knee arthroplasty | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | Although manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) has been considered effective firstline treatment for stiff total knee arthroplasty (TKA), there is no consensus regarding the usefulness of repeated MUA. The purpose of this study was to investigate the usefulness of repeated MUA performed for patients in whom satisfactory ... |
0 | Compass hinge fixator for acute and chronic instability of the elbow | Distal Radius Fractures | OBJECTIVE: To maintain concentric reduction of an unstable elbow and to allow active exercises after the treatment of complex elbow injuries or their sequelae.
INDICATIONS: Recurrent dislocation or subluxation of the elbow after repair or reconstruction of bony, capsuloligamentous, and/or musculotendinous stabilizers. ... |
0 | Neuropathic-Like Pain Symptoms in a Community-Dwelling Sample with or at Risk for Knee Osteoarthritis | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | OBJECTIVE: To characterize neuropathic-like pain among individuals with or at risk for knee osteoarthritis. SUBJECTS: One hundred eighty-four individuals who self-identified as non-Hispanic black or non-Hispanic white and presented with unilateral or bilateral knee pain. DESIGN: Neuropathic-like pain was assessed using... |
0 | Safe Plastic Surgery of the Breast II: Saving Nipple Sensation | Reduction Mammoplasty for Female Breast Hypertrophy | <b>Background:</b> Since its inception, reduction mammoplasty has matured considerably. Primary evolution in clinical research and practice initially focused on developing techniques to preserve tissue viability; breast parenchyma, skin, and nipple tissue that has expanded to include sensation and erectile function pla... |
1 | Different ways to treat subtrochanteric fractures with the Medoff sliding plate | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | Thirty-two consecutive subtrochanteric fractures in 32 patients were stabilized using the Medoff sliding plate and were followed up prospectively for 1 year. Two patients died during the first postoperative year. Twenty-nine of the remaining 30 (97%) fractures united by 1-year followup. Two types of plate dynamization ... |
0 | A Comparison of the Contact Force Distributions on the Acetabular Surface Due to Orthopedic Treatments for Developmental Hip Dysplasia | Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip 2020 Review | We used a three-dimensional rigid body spring model (RBSM) to compare the contact force distributions on the acetabular surface of the infant hip joint that are produced by three orthopedic treatments for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). We analyzed treatments using a Pavlik harness, a generic rigid splint, an... |

0 | Minimally invasive unicondylar arthroplasty in the post-meniscectomy knee: Repicci knee | AMP (Acute Meniscal Pathology) | Loss of the meniscus decreases contact area, resulting in increased stress on the articular cartilage of the knee. Osteoarthritis frequently develops and sclerotic bone is exposed on the articular surfaces of the joint. In the medial compartment, this process is characterized by loss of articular cartilage and anterior... |
