Abstract Background Sex‐related differences of plantar pressure distribution during activities should be thoroughly inspected as it can help establish treatment and prevention strategies for foot ankle problems. In‐shoe measurement systems are preferable without space activity restrictions; however, previously reported still heavy bulky induce unnatural movement. Therefore, a slim light sensor was newly developed to detect the effect sex difference on standing walking. Methods One‐hundred...
Background and Objective: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been widely used for ACL injury a long time. However, residual rotational instability osteoarthritic changes after have identified as problems. Thus, anatomic techniques, various types of grafts additional procedures desired to improve the clinical outcomes knee instability. Although stability are better than in past, ipsilateral graft failures still occur 4–17% seen about 20% patients reconstruction. To remedy...
Abstract Distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) is performed alone or with high tibial (HTO) for patients osteoarthritis and distal femur deformities. DFO technically demanding, particularly when creating an anterior flange. Herein, we examined the morphological characteristics of based on cortical shape as a surgical reference biplanar DFO. Computed tomography images 50 valgus varus knees who underwent total knee arthroplasty were analyzed. Axial slices at initial level transverse in 10 mm proximal...
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most common knee injuries in young and active patients. ACL reconstruction has been usually recommended to restore anterior-posterior as well rotatory stability. However, there are still some issues be addressed reconstruction. Therefore, purpose this review was summarize current literature regarding recent evolution technical improvement We performed a comprehensive graft selection reconstruction, surgical technique (especially...
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for subsequent meniscal surgery following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) in patients without recurrent ACL injury. Methods Patients aged ≥14 years who underwent primary ACLR with minimum 1‐year follow‐up and injury were retrospectively reviewed. Patient demographics surgical data at the time collected. Postoperative radiographs used measure femoral tibial tunnel position, posterior slope....
Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) has become one of the standard surgical treatments for patients with end-stage osteoarthritis (OA). In recent years, TAA total talar prosthesis (combined TAA) been used OA osteonecrosis, severe collapse, or subtalar joint OA. The purpose this study was to investigate functional and clinical outcomes combined TAA, compared conventional TAA.Forty-six ankles (44 patients, 32 women/12 men) that underwent mean follow-up 42 months, 26 (25 18 women/7 46 months were...
The moment arm of gluteus medius proportionated to distance from femoral head tends be decreased postoperatively in valgus-impacted neck fractures treated by situ internal fixation. aim this article is introduce a new gentle technique correct the deformity. innovative Minimally Invasive Closed Reduction for Impacted Femoral (MICRIF) mainly focused disimpact valgus into anatomical position. Patients were positioned on fracture table fix hip joint abduction and rotation. A 2.4-mm diameter...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the reliability cartilage T2 relaxation time measurements and identify focal changes in on affected knee from 6 24 months after anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Data 41 patients who received ACLR analyzed. A bilateral 3.0-T MRI was acquired ACLR. measured subregions femoral condyle tibial plateau. root-mean-square coefficient variation (RMS
Objectives: Bony morphology has been proposed as a potential risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. There have several reports on the relationship between bony and knee kinematics, however, no investigated if morphological parameters that are associated with kinematics also ACL elongation. The purpose of this study was to determine injury predictive elongation during fast running double-legged drop jump. Our hypothesis steeper lateral posterior tibial slope (LPTS), deeper...
Objectives: Several factors have been implicated in the development of cyclops lesions after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), including patient sex, concomitant meniscus repair, and graft choice (namely patellar tendon quadriceps autografts). However, impact surgical characteristics such as diameter, notch size, remnant preservation on rates following ACLR remain poorly understood. Therefore, purpose this study was to determine associated with symptomatic lesion ACLR....
Objectives: The quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft has garnered popularity for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) in the last decade. However, as with other choices, re-ruptures of QT autografts can occur especially high-level athletes, reported rates ranging from 2%-22%. ACL revision surgery is an option these but it be difficult surgeons to decide what type graft select. Numerous studies have examined postoperative morphologic changes PT, and suggest PT was thicker than...
ObjectiveThe influence of quadriceps tendon (QT) size on postoperative strength following QT anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the relationship between morphology and recovery primary ACLR using a autograft.MethodsPatients who underwent autograft from 2014 2022 followed by isometric measurement 5 8 months were retrospectively reviewed. Using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging findings, anterior–posterior (A-P)...
Arthroscopic lateral ligament repair (ALLR) for chronic ankle instability (CLAI) has been improving with technical innovations. However, there is a lack of information regarding mid- and/or long-term clinical outcomes after the introduction ALLR. This study aimed to report mid-term ALLR knotless anchor.Thirty-two patients (11 men and 21 women; mean age, 28 ± 14 years) who underwent anchor from December 2015 October 2020 were included. The follow-up period was 31 11 months. Japanese Society...
