Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is among the most-severe complications of a total arthroplasty. Identification causal organism paramount importance for successful treatment, and sonication implants may aid in this identification. Dithiothreitol (DTT) treatment has been proposed as an alternative to improve diagnosis, reduce costs, reliability procedure, but its efficacy remains poorly characterized.(1) Are DTT more sensitive and/or specific than standard cultures tissue samples diagnosis...
Meniscal allograft transplant (MAT) is considered an effective procedure for reducing pain and improving knee function. Nevertheless, the current knowledge regarding results of MAT limited to short- mid-term follow-up studies, especially arthroscopic techniques.To evaluate long-term clinical outcomes, reoperations, failures with a minimum 10 years after fresh-frozen performed arthroscopically soft tissue fixation.Case series; Level evidence, 4.A total 46 patients (age, 36.6 ± 10.6 years; 36...
We investigated the clinical and laxity testing results at 5 years' followup in patients who had early or late anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Twenty-three (Group I) were treated within 15 days of injury. Fifty-nine II) more than 3 months after Patellar tendon reconstruction fascia lata graft augmented with a augmentation device techniques used both groups. According to Inter national Knee Documentation Committee rating scale, 17 Group I 38 II satis factory results. The Lysholm...
Background: The lateral femoral notch sign (LNS) is a bony impression on the condyle correlated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Its presence associated meniscal injury and higher cartilage degradation condyle. Purpose/Hypothesis: purpose was to investigate effect of magnitude LNS rotatory instability. hypothesis that positive high-grade pivot shift (PS). Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level evidence, 3. Methods: A total 90 consecutive patients complete ACL tears between...
The aims of the present study were (1) to evaluate survival patellofemoral joint (PFJ) arthroplasty in a large cohort patients using data obtained from an Italian regional registry and (2) collect clinical outcomes subgroup patients, with minimum follow-up 4 years. hypotheses that PFJ is procedure had good outcomes, not inferior those reported literature for primary total knee (TKA).
Background: Arthroscopic debridement with graft preservation has been advocated as the treatment of choice for septic arthritis after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, but no previous studies have investigated if hardware removal, while retaining in situ, improves success rate. Moreover, it is unclear whether premature removal fixation devices may affect integration and knee stability. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose was to assess clinical functional outcomes patients ACL...
