Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are of great interest to both clinicians and researchers for their potential enhance tissue engineering. Their ease isolation, manipulability, differentiation specifically what have made them so attractive. These multipotent been found differentiate into cartilage, bone, fat, muscle, tendon, skin, hematopoietic-supporting stroma neural tissue. diverse in vivo distribution includes bone marrow, adipose, periosteum, synovial membrane, skeletal dermis, pericytes,...
History Charcot arthropathy is a progressive, noninfectious destructive disease of joints, most commonly affecting the foot and ankle. When first described by Jean Martin in 1868, it mainly was associated with tabes dorsalis resulting from tertiary syphilis [4]. In 1936, Jordan noted its relationship to diabetes [11], which now recognized as common cause developed countries [18]. Alcoholism, syringomyelia, leprosy also have been this process, albeit less frequently [7]. The exact...
HistoryAnkle fractures are common musculoskeletal injuries thatoccur in a bimodal distribution, with peaks younger menand older women [2], the former related to high-energytrauma and latter osteopenia osteoporosis.Although ankle currently account for 9% offractures, incidence severity increasing [1]. This isattributed increased life expectancy among olderindividuals improved survival of patients severefoot trauma [23, 26].The first fracture classification, credited Perci-val Pott, described...
There are several large series of outcomes after ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction that have 1 or 2 javelin throwers included. To our knowledge, however, there no reports focus solely on the results UCL in this group athletes.We hypothesize by using modern techniques, can reliably expect to return their sport. Additionally, we review principles behind postoperative rehabilitation these athletes, as it differs from usual approach used with baseball players.Case series; Level...
Introduction. Disorders of the Achilles tendon can be broadly classified into acute and chronic entities. Few studies have established tendinopathy as a precursor to ruptures. In this study, we assessed relationship between rupture, clarifying incidence rupture in setting underlying tendinopathy. Methods. The United Healthcare Orthopedic Dataset from PearlDiver Patient Record Database was used identify patients with ICD-9 codes for and/or number tendinopathy, following prior diagnosis...
The Internet is one of the most widely utilized resources for health-related information. Evaluation medical literature suggests that quality and accuracy these are poor written at inappropriately high reading levels. purpose our study was to evaluate quality, accuracy, readability online pertaining hallux valgus.Two search terms ("hallux valgus" "bunion") were entered into Google, Yahoo, Bing. With use scoring criteria specific valgus, information related valgus evaluated by 3 reviewers....
Tendons are primarily acellular, limiting their intrinsic regenerative capabilities. This limited potential contributes to delayed healing, rupture, and adhesion formation after tendon injury.To determine if a tendon's could be improved the application of purified exosome product (PEP) when loaded onto collagen scaffold.Controlled laboratory study.An in vivo rabbit Achilles model was used consisted 3 groups: (1) tenotomy with suture repair, (2) repair scaffold, (3) scaffold PEP at 1 × 1012...
Much current research is focused on biologic enhancement of the tendon repair process. To evaluate different methods, which include a variety gene therapy and tissue engineering techniques, histological biomechanical testing often employed. Both modalities offer information progress quality repair; however, they have been historically considered as two separate entities. Histological evaluation less costly undertaking; there no validated scoring scale to compare results studies or even...
The tarsometatarsal joint complex is an osseous and capsuloligamentous network that includes the 5 metatarsals, their articulations with cuneiforms cuboid, Lisfranc ligament, a strong interosseous attachment between medial cuneiform second metatarsal. A multitude of injury patterns exist involving complex; does not delineate specific injury, but instead spectrum processes complex.
