Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are an important component of evaluating patient health and increasingly utilized in orthopedics. However, their use remains inconsistent among orthopedic subspecialties, with only 21% trauma surgeons reporting regular PROMs practice. While tools for quantifying distress response to pain have been developed, they often difficult apply due extensive questioning the need prospective implementation. The purpose this study was propose a novel...
Background: Arthrofibrosis is a debilitating complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and may benefit from arthroscopic lysis adhesions (LOA) to improve range motion decrease pain. However, the rates periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) need for future revision TKA (rTKA) have only been studied in limited capacity literature. In this study, we aimed compare PJI outcomes patients who had undergone between those subsequently underwent LOA did not undergo LOA. Methods: The PearlDiver...
To investigate the short-term clinical outcomes and satisfaction for first set of patients at our institution receiving in-office needle arthroscopy (IONA) treatment posterior ankle impingement syndrome (PAIS).A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate who underwent IONA PAIS between January 2019 2021. Clinical were evaluated using Foot Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Pain Interference, Intensity scores. Patient measured final...
Hallux rigidus is a progressive degenerative process of the first metatarsophalangeal joint characterized by altered mechanics and formation dorsal osteophytes. Cheilectomy preferred operative intervention at early stages. Technologic advances, patient preference, cost considerations combine to stimulate development minimally invasive in-office interventions. This Technical Note highlights our technique for needle arthroscopy cheilectomy hallux rigidus, which can be used either in operating...
Anterior ankle impingement is a common cause of chronic pain characterized by altered joint mechanics with considerable deficits in range motion. The benefits in-office nano arthroscopy (IONA) include the ability to diagnosis and treat anterior impingement, quicker patient recovery, reduced cost, improved satisfaction. purpose this technical report describe technique for performing special consideration obtaining adequate local anesthesia, proper indications, visualization, advantages these...
In-office needle tendoscopy (IONT) can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of several peroneal tendon pathologies including tendinopathy, tears, instability. Benefits IONT disorders include ability to dynamically evaluate stability, quicker patient recovery, reduced cost, improved satisfaction. Several studies have suggested that tendoscopic may avoid complications related open pathologies, scar formation groove stenosis. The purpose present report is describe technique performing common...
Background: Autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) using a cylindrical graft in the treatment of lesions talus (OLTs) is typically indicated for patients with larger lesions. However, that are irregular shape, AOT may not completely replace lesion. For these lesions, we utilize extracellular matrix cartilage allograft (EMCA) augmentation to act as physiologic grout at host-graft interface. Purpose: To determine if combination EMCA concentrated bone marrow aspirate (CBMA) would...
To assess the feasibility of needle arthroscopy for management suspected bacterial arthritis in native joints.
Achilles tendinopathy is a common inflammatory condition of the tendon prevalent in athletic population which patients present with pain, swelling, and reduced performance exacerbated by physical activity. Operative intervention using either open or percutaneous approaches has traditionally been performed after failure nonoperative treatment, but less invasive modalities that include endoscopic have increasingly used. This Technical Note highlights our technique for paratenon needle...
Posterior hindfoot disorders encompass a spectrum of bony, cartilaginous, and soft-tissue pathology. Traditional open surgical techniques have been increasingly replaced by less-invasive arthroscopic endoscopic approaches. Recent innovations such as the advent needle arthroscope continue to push boundary minimally invasive interventions. This Technical Note highlights our technique for posterior endoscopy common pathologies in wide-awake office setting, including indications, advantages,...
The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) is the most frequently injured lateral of ankle, and up to 20% patients with ankle sprains may require surgical intervention correct chronic instability. There has been increased interest in arthroscopic repair techniques minimize postoperative pain expedite recovery. Additionally, use suture-tape augmentation allow for improved recovery those ATFL reconstruction. goal this Technical Note describe steps performing in-office needle arthroscopy using...
Biological adjuvants are used after a musculoskeletal injury to improve healing, decrease inflammation, and restore joint homeostasis. Work on 1 such adjuvant, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), has suggested positive effect when introduced during cartilage repair. However, it remains unknown whether healing osteochondral injuries benefit from serial PRP injections.To evaluate the effects of injections versus single injection reparative cartilaginous tissue, subchondral bone remodeling, expression...
Tendoscopy has been recognized to be a useful technique in the diagnosis and treatment of early tibialis posterior tendon (TPT) dysfunction. Although open surgical procedures for advanced TPT disease have led excellent outcomes, disagreement persists concerning correct management algorithm Recent developments needle tendoscopy provided minimally invasive option direct evaluation intervention throughout forefoot, midfoot, hindfoot. The goal this manuscript is describe performing in-office...
