Background: In recent years, orthopaedic surgeons have attempted to decrease opioid consumption through multimodal pain management. However, a limited effort has been made eliminate opioids entirely in the perioperative period. The purpose of this study was compare efficacy and safety novel opioid-free management pathway with that an opioid-containing across 5 common subspecialty surgical procedures. Methods: 1:1, unblinded fashion, 315 patients were randomized either (n = 157) or 158). Pain...
Primary arthrodesis of Lisfranc fracture-dislocations is a reliable treatment option, yet concerns remain about nonunion. Nitinol staple use has recently proliferated in midfoot arthrodesis. The purpose this study to examine the union rate primary acute treated with nitinol staples compared traditional plate-and-screw fixation. secondary objective assess difference operative times and reoperation rates.

Randomized controlled trial (RCT).
In response to the opioid epidemic, use of multimodal pain management in orthopaedic surgery is increasing. Efforts decrease prescribing and consumption among foot ankle surgical patients are needed. The purpose this study was compare efficacy adverse events between 2 pathways for forefoot patients: standard opioid-containing (OC) opioid-free (OF).
Category: Hindfoot; Other Introduction/Purpose: Severe, rigid deformities of the hindfoot related to pes planovalgus are commonly treated with arthrodesis. Deformity recurrence and ankle valgus deformity can occur due attenuated often incompetent medial soft tissues. While addition a displacing calcaneal osteotomy (MDCO) arthrodesis has been described, complication profile effect on alignment parameters including not well elucidated. There is biomechanical data suggest that MDCO triple will...
