Baker's cyst (BC) is also known as popliteal cyst. To evaluate its effect on intra-articular pathology, it important to have the exact volume of As BC may change shape due mass surrounding anatomic structures, difficult measure BC. This study examined relationship between three-dimensionally measured and symptomatic knee pathologies.The magnetic resonance (MR) images 45 patients with knees were retrospectively examined.The volumes via volumetric analysis. The joint effusion was in sagittal...

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of our study was to determine whether carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), as surrogates disease arterial stiffness, are increased in patients carpal syndrome.Forty CTS 40 gender- age-matched controls underwent cf-PWV assessment, CIMT measurement, nerve conduction study.CIMT were significantly CTS. They correlated positively median sensory motor distal...

Background: Adhesions after tendinopathy in individuals who perform physical work and those physically active middle age are a challenging problem for orthopedic surgeons. We evaluated the effects of human-derivated amniotic membrane on tendon healing, adhesions, angiogenesis, inflammatory process. Methods: Thirty-five rats were divided evenly into five groups, left lower extremity was used this study. No interventions applied to control group (group 5). In other Achilles tendons partially...

Objective: Algan hemostatic agent (AHA) is a plant-basedhemostatic produced in Turkey. Although, there greatimprovement the technologies, more effectivehemostatic products are required to be produced. The aim ofthis study was demonstrate efficacy of AHA partialsplenectomy model rats. In addition, this model, postoperativeabdominal adhesion evaluated.Materials and Methods: 5-7 weeks old 64rats were used. Rats randomly divided into 8 groups, eachconsisting eight rats (4 groups heparinized 4...

Since some of the patients with plantar calcaneal spur (PCS) do not have pain, we aimed to investigate effect slope and length on this situation. The PCS were measured by examining radiological images 50 in prospective study. VAS, AOFAS FFI scores determined. Patients divided into groups according slope. According spur, mean AOFAS, VAS were, respectively; 94, 38, 1.3 below 20 degrees; 80.1, 86.8, 4.8 20-30 70.1, 106, 6.7 above 30 degrees. 84.9, 68.2, 3.7 those 0-5 mm; 81.1, 81.7, 4.5 a 5-10...

Study Design: Retrospective study.Objection: There can be a relationship between degenerative diseases in the spine and hip.Summary of Background Data: Degenerative hip may occur concomitantly. This study was done to investigate cross-sectional area psoas muscle size incidence lumbar disc herniation after unilateral arthroplasty.Methods: The data files patients who were operated on for arthroplasty January 2014- 15 May 2021 at Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Hospital retrospectively analysed...

Synovial sarcoma (SS) constitutes 5%-10% of all soft tissue sarcomas 1) .It is a high-grade tumor that seen in extremities among the young population.The translocation (X; 18) (p1; q11) typical 2) .Since SS an aggressive periarticular tumor, definitive diagnosis should be made, even though its incidence low.However, when calcification focus noted during clinical and radiological examinations patient with history trauma to extremity, myositis ossificans (MO) considered as first possible...

Background: Even though Cisplatin (Cis) is known to be organotoxic, it used in neoplastic chemotherapy. In skeletal muscles, the toxic effect manifests as atrophy. Objectives: The tea grape extract (TGE) a sort of whortleberry that has various physiological effects including prevention chemically induced cellular insults. Therefore, we examined if TGE protective against Cis muscle Methods: Female Sprague-Dawley rats were this animal experimental study. Rats allocated into different study...

Objective: Although various methods have been identified for the appropriate tibial nail length, there are disadvantages such as extra time, radiation exposure, and additional cost. We aimed to predict ideal length of according patient's height shoe size in preoperative period eliminate these disadvantages. Materials Methods: Between January 2018 August 2023, data 71 patients who were diagnosed with shaft fracture had tibia intramedullary fixation determined. A linear regression model was...

Aim: This study aimed to determine the availability of neutrophilto-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in diagnosis and treatment follow-up by determining changing values when septic arthritis (SA) is diagnosed during treatment. Material Method:This retrospective based on examining laboratory results 44 adult patients with a SA.Laboratory values, white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), NLR days 0, 5, 10, 14 joint fluid analysis were evaluated. Results:The mean number cells was 46...

Objective: We aimed to determine in which of the symptomatic intra-articular pathologies knee, clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be an alternative diagnostic arthroscopy. Materials Methods: Prospective analysis 50 patients aged 18 years who underwent arthroscopy with diagnosis meniscus tear, cruciate ligament injury, cartilage damage, or plica between 2013 2015 was conducted. The results physical MRI were compared findings. Results: Patients a mean age 35 years....

We present a case of quadriceps tendon (QT) rupture. QT ruptures can occur in all ages. The cause is mostly traumatic origin. Spontaneous that are thought to result from predisposing conditions rare. Post-convulsion lacking traumas their history be overlooked clinical examinations. This should born mind by the attending physician, as early diagnosis and treatment condition lead satisfactory outcomes.
