Study Design. Retrospective chart review Objective. The objective of this study was to identify and compare the effectiveness a regularized operating room (OR) process versus utilization consistent “scoliosis team” for improving outcomes associated with pediatric spinal deformity surgery. Summary Background Data. Operating standardization has garnered significant attention as critical strategy enhancing surgical safety outcomes. benefits OR are in complex fields. Previous studies have shown...
Cemented fixation during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has long been the gold standard due to excellent survivorship and clinical outcomes. With recent biomaterial advancements, cementless gained renewed interest. Most studies demonstrate similar outcomes between these two methods, without consensus regarding optimal method of TKA. Outcomes following TKA also depend upon proper alignment positioning components. Robotic-assisted shown improve related component positioning, overall lower limb...
Abstract Purpose Despite benefits of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) on function and quality life, obese patients have less improved functional outcomes following TKA compared to their normal weight counterparts. Furthermore, obesity is a risk factor for aseptic loosening revision surgery TKA. With known robotic‐assisted (RaTKA) in precision patient satisfaction, we aimed evaluate the differences reported outcome early complication rates undergoing RaTKA versus conventional among varying BMI...
Background: Mortality rates following emergency spine fracture surgery are high, especially in the elderly. However, how postoperative mortality rate fractures compares to other geriatric such as hip remains unclear. Therefore, this retrospective cohort study aimed compare 30-day and risk factors between versus Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database was queried 2011 2021 for Univariate analyses evaluated demographic data, perioperative factors,...
Retrospective cohort study.
ABSTRACT Background: Lumbar microdiscectomy is a surgical procedure that frequently used in the treatment of symptomatic lumbar herniation. Differences outcomes following primary and revision have been previously studied, with reports comparably satisfactory results from Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial. In this study, we further investigate these outcomes, including length stay, bleeding events, durotomy. We hypothesized incidence dural tear would be greater cohort. Methods: The...
Prior studies have linked sarcopenia and fat infiltration in paraspinal muscles with lumbar pain, spinal pathology, adverse postoperative outcomes spine surgery. A recent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based method for assessing muscle health, incorporating parameters such as Goutallier Classification (GC) the Paralumbar Muscle Cross-Sectional Area to Body Mass Index ratio (PL-CSA/BMI), has shown that higher grades correlate significant improvements patient-reported outcomes. Despite these...
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head disproportionately affects patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is most frequent indication for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in these patients.Patients SLE are more likely to undergo THA than those without disease, they elect procedure at a younger age. More procedures currently being performed on as all-cause rate increasing similarly that general population.Postoperatively, report similar functional outcomes but lower physical quality life...
Dual semitendinosus allograft reconstruction of chronic Achilles tendon ruptures has several potential benefits including superior tensile strength compared with a turndown construct and avoidance the morbidity operative time associated autograft augmentation. We present series reconstructed dual allograft.We retrospectively reviewed charts patients aged 18 years older who underwent using allograft. The primary outcome this study was to evaluate need for revision surgery. Secondary outcomes...
Metastatic prostate carcinoma mainly occurs in bone as an osteoblastic lesion or lesions the pelvis, spine, chest wall. We present a unique case of singular metastatic osteolytic rib initially misdiagnosed fracture 61-year-old male. A single patient with no history trauma should raise suspicion for disease. would encourage cancer to be included differential diagnosis male over age 40. review current literature on this rare presentation metastasis well pathogenesis it relates solitary lesion.
