METHOD: Interviews were conducted in family health units and the Psychosocial Attention Center. The sample included 2... |
1 | Arthroscopic modified Mason-Allen technique for large U- or L-shaped rotator cuff tears | Trial Systematic Review Project | PURPOSE: While a conventional single- or double-row repair technique could be applied for repair of C-shaped tears, a different surgical strategy should be considered for repair of U- or L-shaped tears because they typically have complex patterns with anterior, posterior, or both mobile leaves. This study was performed... |
0 | Total knee arthroplasty: good agreement of clinical severity scores between patients and consultants | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | BACKGROUND: Nearly 20,000 patients per year in the UK receive total knee arthroplasty (TKA). One of the problems faced by the health services of many developed countries is the length of time patients spend waiting for elective treatment. We therefore report the results of a study in which the Salisbury Priority Scorin... |
0 | Use of Acellular Dermal Matrices in One-stage Implant-based Breast Reconstruction | Acellular Dermal Matrix | Implant-based breast reconstruction is the most common choice in breast cancer patients. Recently,the acellular dermal matrix (ADM) technique has been widely used in implant-based breast reconstruction in the western countries. This article briefly reviews the biological characteristics,history,types,surgical technique... |
0 | Bone Marrow-Derived and Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy in Primary Knee Osteoarthritis: A Narrative Review | BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) | Regenerative medicine in the context of musculoskeletal injury is a broad term that offers potential therapeutic solutions to restore or repair damaged tissue. The current focus in recent literature and clinical practice has been on cell based therapy. In particular, much attention has been centered on autologous bone ... |
0 | Occult renal cell carcinoma with acrometastasis and ipsilateral juxta-articular knee lesions mimicking acute inflammation | PJI DX Updated Search | Generally, skeletal peripheral metastases below the elbow and the knee are rare. Skeletal metastases to the hand or foot are very rare; but when they do it may be a revealing clinical finding. Purely lytic lesions are commonly seen in metastases from lung, renal, and thyroid tumors, but they are also known to occur in ... |
0 | Improving Cost-efficiency in Bilateral Direct-to-Implant Reconstructions with Acellular Dermal Matrix | Acellular Dermal Matrix | The use of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) for bilateral breast reconstruction has increased in recent years. Detection of BCRA mutation and therefore bilateral risk-reduction mastectomy is one of the main reasons for this increase. High cost of ADM is considered a major drawback for its use. The authors present a new te... |
0 | Compartment syndrome in ipsilateral humerus and forearm fractures in children | The Treatment of Pediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fractures AUC | Ipsilateral fractures of the humerus and forearm are uncommon injuries in children. The incidence of compartment syndrome in association with these fractures is controversial. The authors reviewed 978 consecutive children admitted to the hospital with upper extremity long bone fractures during a 13-year period. Forty-t... |
1 | Closed suction drains do not increase the blood transfusion rates in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | We aim to determine whether the presence of a drain increases the actual blood transfusion rates in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). A retrospective review was performed on two consecutive groups of patients who underwent primary TKA: group 1 including 100 patients who underwent TKA and had on... |
0 | Differences in reconstruction of the anatomy with modern adjustable compared to second-generation shoulder prosthesis | Glenohumeral Joint OA | Reconstruction of the anatomy of the proximal humerus is a prerequisite to achieving good long-term clinical results after shoulder arthroplasty. Modern, adjustable prostheses have greater flexibility of inclination, retroversion, and medial and dorsal offset in comparison with older prostheses. Such improvements shoul... |
0 | Trauma-focused cognitive behaviour therapy and exercise for chronic whiplash: protocol of a randomised, controlled trial | DoD PRF (Psychosocial RF) | INTRODUCTION: As a consequence of a road traffic crash, persistent pain and disability following whiplash injury are common and incur substantial personal and economic costs. Up to 50% of people who experience a whiplash injury will never fully recover and up to 30% will remain moderately to severely disabled by the co... |
0 | Fixed flexion deformity and total knee arthroplasty | Surgical Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee CPG | Fixed flexion deformities are common in osteoarthritic knees that are indicated for total knee arthroplasty. The lack of full extension at the knee results in a greater force of quadriceps contracture and energy expenditure. It also results in slower walking velocity and abnormal gait mechanics, overloading the contral... |
1 | A prospective magnetic resonance imaging study of the incidence of posterolateral and multiple ligament injuries in acute knee injuries presenting with a hemarthrosis | Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries CPG | PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether the incidence of posterolateral knee injuries, as well as other concurrent knee ligament injuries, could be obtained from a prospective evaluation of magnetic resonance imaging scans in patients with an acute knee injury with a hemarthrosis. METHODS: We prospe... |
0 | Visual outcome of surgically managed pituitary adenomas followed-up at the Yaounde Central Hospital | Upper Eyelid and Brow Surgery | INTRODUCTION: Pituitary adenomas are benign brain tumours arising from the adenohypophysis; representing 10-15% of all intra-cranial tumours. Despite improved management, they are still related to high morbidity. Visual impairment is a common presentation and visual field defects representing 37-96%. We aimed at descri... |
0 | Tranexamic acid reduces blood loss and financial cost in primary total hip and knee replacement surgery | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | Background: Blood conservation strategies have been developed to diminish blood transfusion requirements in patients undergoing hip or knee replacement surgery. Tranexamic acid (TA) is an inexpensive antifibrinolytic agent that is little used in orthopaedic surgery due to the absence of standardised optimal administrat... |
0 | Outcomes after Total Hip Arthroplasty Using a Cementless S-ROM Modular Stem for Patients with High Hip Dislocation Secondary to Hip Pyogenic Arthritis | Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip 2020 Review | OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the midterm results of the cementless S-ROM modular femoral stem used with subtrochanteric transverse shortening osteotomy for the treatment of high hip dislocation secondary to hip pyogenic arthritis. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the data of 49 patients (49 hips) with an average infectio... |
0 | Femoral head osteonecrosis after bone marrow transplantation | Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures | Thirty-five patients with bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head after bone marrow transplantation were reviewed retrospectively. The median age at the time of transplantation was 26 years. The first symptoms occurred within 2 years of transplantation. At presentation, 18 of the patients reported pain in both hips... |
0 | Determining Stability in Posterior Wall Acetabular Fractures | Hip Fx in the Elderly 2019 | OBJECTIVES: To determine if the radiographic parameters of femoral head coverage by the intact posterior wall, acetabular version, and location of the fracture or a history of dislocation were determinates of hip stability in patients with posterior wall acetabular fractures.
