Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) following radial head arthroplasty (RHA) is a rare, yet devastating complication. Current treatment options for PJI comprise debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR); resection arthroplasty; one- or two-stage revision. Two-stage revision the current gold standard of at hip, shoulder, knee, involves using an antibiotic spacer to maintain limb length soft tissue tension. Despite widespread use this technique in other sites, its RHA has not been...
Background: De Quervain tenosynovitis is commonly seen in patients who perform repetitive wrist ulnar deviation with thumb abduction and extension. Previous studies comparing nonsurgical options have contributed to a lack of consensus about ideal management. This study’s purpose was analyze results prospectively randomized treated either corticosteroid injection (CSI) alone versus CSI immobilization. Methods: Radial sided pain, first dorsal compartment tenderness, positive Finkelstein test...
Most closed clavicle fractures are treated nonoperatively. Research during the past decade has reported differences in treatment of based on insurance status US and may highlight unmet needs a vulnerable population, particularly because new data show that surgery lead to improved outcomes select populations. Large-scale, national needed better inform this debate.(1) Does likelihood operative fixation vary among patients with different types insurance? (2) What demographic socioeconomic...
Giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is one the most common soft tissue tumors hand. These typically occur in third or fourth decade life and present as solitary nodules on a single digit. Currently, greatest reported number lesions found within digit five. Although uncommon, giant does pediatric population. Herein we report rare case GCTTS child which seven were identified digit—the to date.
The hand is one of the most commonly fractured parts body. Many these injuries are treated operatively. This study compares short-term outcomes between general anesthesia and other forms in open treatment fractures.
Rotation of the forearm is a result complex interaction among radius, ulna, and interosseous membrane. Although radius recognized as curved, ulna generally thought "straight bone." To better describe normal anatomy, which may lead to more successful anatomic fixation fractures, we aimed apply method measuring ulnar bow determine mean in adults.(1) what degree bowed coronal sagittal planes adult forearms? (2) plane forearms?Radiographs forearms adults taken during 1-year period were initially...
In the management of scaphoid fractures, nonunion is an important complication that can lead to carpal instability and early-onset arthritis. Various techniques have been described treat nonunions, yet a clear consensus on superiority one method not established. The use compression staple fixation has in literature may be viable alternative other techniques. Volar Nitinol avoids damage trapezium during retrograde with screw. It also proximal dorsal cartilage, which occurs anterograde screw...
Fibroma of tendon sheath (FTS) is an uncommonly encountered soft tissue mass, which morphologically distinct from the more commonly seen giant cell tumor (GCTTS). Initially described in 1936, FTS typically a slow growing, painless, firm mass with predilection for upper extremity, frequently involving hand. Cases associated triggering or compression neuropathies have been when underlying tendons nerves are affected. Currently, literature on sparse and largely limited to case reports. More...
