It is unclear whether matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte transplantation (MACT) results in objective and subjective clinical improvements at 10 years after surgery.Matrix-associated will result radiological patients with symptomatic, traumatic chondral defects of the knee joint.Case series; Level evidence, 4.A total 16 were treated MACT between November 2000 April 2002 evaluated for up to intervention. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) form, Injury Osteoarthritis...
Abstract Surgical site infection (SSI) following osteosynthesis of trochanteric or subtrochanteric fractures is a rare but serious complication with incidence rate ranging from 1 to 3%. SSIs are associated higher mortality and increased length hospital stay resulting in healthcare costs loss life quality. In this retrospective analysis all patients SSI at the Department Trauma Surgery were identified. We included surgical procedures performed 1992 2018, using data electronic health records...
Observer variability in local radiological reading is a major concern large-scale multi-center traumatic brain injury (TBI) studies. A central review process has been advocated to minimize this variability. The aim of study compare with TBI imaging datasets and investigate the added value review. total 2050 admission computed tomography (CT) scans from subjects enrolled Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI) were analyzed for seven main...
BACKGROUND With regard to the improved surgical possibilities and rising tendency of attempted limb salvage, topic secondary amputation becomes increasingly important. The aim this study was identify potential prognostic factors predicting in third-degree open lower fractures. METHODS All patients experienced fractures without primary (1994–2012). Prognostic were investigated explain final outcome these (limb salvage vs. amputation). RESULTS From a total 408 diaphyseal tibia fractures, 93...
Background: Delayed intracranial hemorrhage can occur up to several weeks after head trauma and was reported more frequently in patients with antithrombotic therapy. Due the risk of delayed hemorrhage, some hospitals follow extensive observation cranial computed tomography (CT) protocols for trauma, while others discharge asymptomatic negative CT. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data on therapy without pathologies their initial During period, we followed a protocol routine repeat CT...
Aims The aim of this retrospective study was to determine if there are differences in short-term clinical outcomes among four different types matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte transplantation (MACT). Methods A total 88 patients (mean age 34 years (SD 10.03), mean BMI 25 kg/m 2 3.51)) with full-thickness chondral lesions the tibiofemoral joint who underwent MACT were included study. Clinical examinations performed preoperatively and 24 months after transplantation. evaluated using...
The aim of the project was to survey hospital prevalence apallic syndrome in a federal state Austria at an exact point time. To achieve this, study carried out on 28 November 2001 Vienna region. central element questionnaire, which provided recording patients' condition. An additional preliminary task check all discharge diagnoses hospitals Hospital Association (Wiener Krankenanstalten Verbund) between 1996 and 2000 according ICD-9 for syndrome. These data should serve cross-check recorded...
Approximately 15 % of all juvenile injuries the long bones involve epiphyseal growth plate, and 2.9 these are Tillaux fractures. The fracture is great importance because it involves a major weight-bearing articular surface. Treatment protocols in literature not uniform for this kind fracture, numerous case reports can be found describing various treatment methods. aim study was to present clinical outcome at long-term follow-up after displaced In all, 168 children adolescent patients with...
The acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation is a major reason for shoulder instability. Different concepts of treatment and surgical methods are described in the literature. Thus, purpose this study was to present our data long-term follow-up patients having undergone using Bosworth Screw with additional K-wiring.This conducted as retrospective single centre analysis. All treated operatively AC screw K-wire fixation at Department were asked participate study.The population consisted 22...
Unstable Neer Type IIB fractures require meticulous surgical treatment. Thus, the aim of this study was to present long-term outcomes after plate fixation and minimally invasive coracoclavicular (CC) stabilization using screw fixation.A consecutive series patients with unstable displaced clavicle fractures, treated by open reduction internal (ORIF) a additional for ligament instability, reviewed in order determine clinical radiological outcome.Seven patients, six males one female, mean age...
Summary Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a frequent cause of mortality and acquired neurological impairment in children. It hypothesized, that with the adequate treatment SDH children adolescence, excellent clinical functional outcomes can be achieved. The aim this study was to present severity outcome traumatic adolescence as well analyze differences between patients treated surgically conservatively. Methods In 47 infants subdural hematoma (SDH) were 1992 2010 at single level-one...
Circulating levels of VEGF-A (Vascular Endothelia Growth Factor-A), TGF-β1 (Transforming Factor-beta 1), and M-CSF (Macrophage-Colony Stimulating Factor) were found to be predictors bone healing therefore prognostic criteria delayed or nonunion. The aim this study was evaluate a potential rise these markers in patients with multiple fractures long bones compared single fractured bone. 92 included the finally after excluding all female 45 male left for final analysis divided into fracture...
Inferior shoulder dislocation in fixed abduction, also known as luxatio erecta humeri (LEH), is a rare injury with little data available. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to evaluate and present our case series type special emphasis on associated pathologies; secondary diagnostic recommendations detect for potential pathologies typically seen injury. A total 38 patients (13 females, average age 72.8 years 25 males, 41.4 years), who have been treated inferior between 1992 2020,...
To investigate the functional outcome in young and athletic patients with ACL injuries, treated an all-soft-tissue quadriceps tendon autograft at a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Methods: Patients who received QT reconstruction between August 2018 December 2020 were included this study. Range motion operated knee was described 6 18 weeks after surgery parameters (Lysholm score, IKDC score Tegner activity scale) calculated ≥ months surgery. Results: Forty study, which 29 identified as male...
PurposeTo compare the clinical and imaging outcome of arthroscopic transosseous (TO)-equivalent rotator cuff repair (RCR) with anchors anchorless TO RCR at a minimum 2 years postoperatively.MethodsThe study population included patients who underwent using either an technique suture passing device (group A) those were matched for tear size B). The inclusion criterion was easily reducible sagittal extension to 4 cm. After years, scores magnetic resonance obtained. Tendon quality footprint...
As the awareness towards gender-specific therapies continues to increase among all fields of medicine, so does need for gender-sensitive evaluations established surgical techniques. With a higher likelihood anterior cruciate ligament injury in women, critical assessment functional outcome reconstruction regarding patient sex is indispensable. Almost pre-existing literature on this subject based reconstructions carried out before 2008, when 'all-inside' techniques did not exist. This...
