A new knife with its own battery powered light source (Knifelight, Stryker Instruments, Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA) was used for carpal tunnel release in 31 wrists of 25 patients. Under local anaesthesia, a short palmar incision and the contents were visualized during division flexor retinaculum. The mean operation time 11 minutes no major complications seen. patients could use their hands self-care after 3 days returned to work at 23 days. At minimum follow-up 6 months, all but one satisfied...

Although, the safe limits of human daily boron (B) exposure are not absolutely clear, there is a growing interest in B and its effects on health. The aim present study was to estimate 66 males Turkey living B-rich area using water containing at least 2 mg/l boron, with an average age 38.55 (se 1.66) years number residence 35.89 1.73). Another group (n 57), city centres Balikesir Ankara, were taken as controls; for this 29.44 1.43) 10.26 1.83) years, respectively. As it assumed that level...

This survey was designed to evaluate the prevalence estimations of HV, bunionette, hammertoe as well their relations shoe wearing and also familial tendency, in Turkey.Two thousand six hundred sixty two volunteers (1615 females 1047 males) with a mean age 34.15 ± 14.23 (range; 18 96) years were asked answer predetermined questionnaire between January June, 2016. Hallux valgus, bunionette images provided references every adult participant without any known forefoot problems or past surgery...

A very large Turkish family with syndactyly type II (synpolydactyly (SPD)) is described, which originated from and mainly concentrated in the village of Derbent, Afyon. The kindred consists 425 subjects over seven generations, whom 182 are affected. It appears that a founder effect this has led to extensive kindred. This condition inherited as an autosomal dominant trait variable expressivity estimated penetrance 96%. Penetrance different between upper (96%) lower (69.5%) extremities. No...

Syndactyly type II (synpolydactyly (SPD)) is an autosomal dominant condition with typical abnormalities of the distal parts both upper and lower limbs. We report here a previously undescribed phenotypic feature people severe hand foot deformities who were born to two affected parents. This first example SPD subjects manifesting very distinctive phenotype, suggesting that they must be homozygous for this condition. The characteristic clinical features in these are as follows: (1) short hands...

AbstractProsthetic arthritis caused by Candida species is extremely rare. Of 30 such cases reported in the English literature, only 3 were due to glabrata. We present herein a fourth case; best of our knowledge this first example knee arthroplasty infection C.

Background: We compared the effectiveness of stretching and strengthening exercises combined with myofascial releasing mobilization techniques to a only home program in plantar fasciitis (PF) management. Method: The study included 53 feet 47 patients (35 women / 12 men; mean age 48.9±11.2 years). Pain, disability, activity restrictions were assessed by Foot Function Index (FFI), first step pain was graded visual analog scale (VAS). Ankle range motion (ROM), gastrocnemius-soleus flexibility,...

Abstract Pedobarographic gait analysis is a useful tool for the determination of loading distributions and alterations on lower extremity their reflection foot sole after many orthopaedic surgical applications. To date, there have been no studies evaluating relationship between component alignment changes pedobarographic in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We aimed to investigate effects TKA prosthetic distribution parameters. Quantitative patterns 47 patients were prospectively evaluated by...

Osteochondral autograft transplantation (mosaicplasty) for the osteochondral defects of femoral head is generally performed with safe dislocation hip joint. Here, we present a 27-year-old male patient who had symptomatic defect and underwent mosaicplasty applied by arthroscopy without surgical dislocation. The preoperative radiological evaluation showed focal on weight-bearing surface head. With assistance arthroscopy, area was reconstructed plug, which taken from ipsilateral knee, inserted...

Background: Although there are studies showing that extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and instrument-assisted soft-tissue mobilization methods effective in chronic plantar heel pain (CPHP) treatment, is a need for comparing these techniques. We compared the effectiveness of ESWT versus using Graston Technique (GT) instruments addition to stretching exercises (SEs) CPHP. Methods: Sixty-nine patients were randomly assigned three groups: ESWT+SEs (group 1), GT+SEs 2), SEs only (control...

Background: Shoulder injuries are prevalent in adolescent water polo (WP) players. Study aimed to determine whether preseason shoulder characteristics (range of motion [ROM], flexibility, and strength) core endurance can identify athletes at risk future injuries. Hypothesis: characteristics, including changes ROM (internal rotation [IR], external [ER], total), strength (IR ER), pectoralis minor capsule endurance, would be factors for reinjury with previous overuse compared noninjured...

Average intakes determined using different methods have estimated 1.0–1.2 mg boron (B)/d for adults in the United States (US). Similar been reported Turkey where limited control subjects were compared with living B‐rich areas. In an initial study observed a decrease incidence of cervical cancer‐related histopathological findings when B 8.41 mg/d naturally regions. A US inverse relationship between natural concentrations water and prostate cancer. differing college females 20% increase diets...
