METHODSelevator to apply stress on the joint. 12Another study found that distracting forces applied joint should be in direction of actual ligaments bear physiologic weightbearing condition for accurate assessment. 13n this study, we aimed introduce a standardized and reproducible intraoperative mechanical test Lisfranc instability, particularly isolated ligament injuries.Our hypothesis is resembling standard force IntroductIonInjuries represent 0.2% all fractures have an annual incidence...
Majority of Lisfranc fracture-dislocations require anatomic reduction and rigid internal fixation to prevent debilitating sequelae. Current methods include solid screws flexible fixations which have been in use for many years. Biointegrative screw is a newer option that has not yet thoroughly investigated its effectiveness injuries.
Abstract Background: Breast cancer is the most common afflicting women with an estimated 2.1 million new cases diagnosed globally every year. and its treatment significantly impair patient’s physical mental health thereby affect their overall quality of life (QOL). Our aim was to identify differences in long-term QOL between breast conservative surgery (BCS) modified radical mastectomy (MRM) for early among sociodemographic clinical subgroups patients. Methods: This prospective observational...
Over the past decade, overlapping procedures in orthopaedic surgery have come under increased public scrutiny. Central to this discussion is what should constitute a "critical portion" of any surgical procedure-a definition which may differ between patients and surgeons. This study therefore aimed assess components three common foot ankle are considered "critical" from both patient surgeon perspectives.
Introduction Global surgery conferences are critical for sharing best practices, networking, developing policies and strengthening surgical systems, yet they often under-represent low- middle-income countries (LMICs), perpetuating academic inequities. This study describes systemic barriers to frontline provider participation, suggests actionable recommendations facilitate the inclusion of LMIC voices at these conferences. Methods The development consensus statement involved Association...
Abstract Purpose Breast cancer is the most common afflicting women with an estimated 2.1 million new cases diagnosed globally every year. and its treatment significantly impair patient’s physical mental health thereby affect their overall quality of life (QOL). Our aim was to identify differences in long-term QOL between breast conservative surgery (BCS) modified radical mastectomy (MRM) for early among sociodemographic clinical subgroups patients. Methodology: This prospective observational...
Abstract Background The gold standard for diagnosis of Lisfranc instability is direct visualization in the operation room while examination techniques still unstandardized and non-reproducible. We aimed to introduce a novel reproducible intraoperative mechanical testing method (Listract test) isolated assessment. Methods ligament between first cuneiform (C1) second metatarsus (M2) eight lower leg cadaveric specimens were dissected replicate C1-M2 by foot ankle surgeons. 50N distraction force...

Category: Hindfoot; Other Introduction/Purpose: Plantar fasciitis (PF), a leading cause of persistent heel pain, results in almost million physician visits annually. Conservative treatment is often the first line management with insoles being frequently prescribed. While multiple studies have compared based on degree customization to foot contour, literature lacking data comparing their material. In this randomized clinical trial, we early effects foam, polyurethane, and carbon fiber PF,...
Category: Other; Ankle Introduction/Purpose: Over the last decade, simultaneous or overlapping procedures in orthopedic surgery have come under increased media attention and public scrutiny. While little is known about what surgeons consider to be 'critical portions' of myriad foot ankle performed, even less expectations opinions patients themselves. In this study we aimed elucidate patients' regarding their presence at different portions a given they considered 'critical'. Methods: survey,...
Category: Ankle Arthritis; Trauma Introduction/Purpose: Social and demographic determinants of health including gender, race, ethnicity language, have been shown to impact treatment pathways across medical specialties. Very little such research, however, has focused explicitly on orthopaedic foot ankle patients. Given the debilitating implications arthritis, this study aimed investigate effect social factors outcomes patients presenting surgeons with end-stage arthritis. Methods: In...
