A retrospective cohort study.To compare the incidence of retrograde ejaculation (RE) after anterior lumbar spine surgery with disc replacement versus fusion use recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP).Anterior interbody (ALIF) has become a popular choice for treating number pathologies, largely because it preserves posterior paravertebral muscles and ligaments. Despite these advantages, approach is also associated various complications, one which RE. recent study questioned...
Chronic quadriceps tendon (QT) ruptures are uncommon injuries that present treatment challenges due to their complex nature and the limited evidence guide management.Timely diagnosis surgical management of acute QT injury imperative optimize patient outcomes as delayed leads poorer results regardless modality.Elements chronic may complicate include age, comorbidity, scar-tissue formation, amount muscle/ retraction, distalmigration patella with contraction tendon.Treatment options for primary...
When insertional Achilles tendinopathy is addressed surgically via a central-Achilles splitting approach, the calcaneal osteotomy has classically been performed from distal to proximal. We describe simple proximal technique that allows optimal resection of both exostosis and enthesophyte, minimizes risk soft tissues skin, provides bony attachment surface parallel axis tendon, avoids extension into subtalar joint. Levels Evidence: Level V: Technique tip
Background Several anterior cervical plating systems recently have been designed to allow for controlled movement between fused vertebrae increase load sharing across an interbody graft. The purpose of this study was determine whether dynamic translating plates are associated with improved radiographic outcomes as compared variable-angle screw in patients undergoing discectomy and fusion (ACDF). Methods We retrospectively reviewed medical records postoperative films (3, 6, 12 months) who...
