Background The number of patients presenting for total knee replacement who are classified as obese is increasing. functional benefits performing TKR in these unclear. Aim To assess the influence pre-operative body mass index has upon specific function, general health status and patient satisfaction at 3 years following replacement. Design Retrospective comparative cohort study using prospectively collected data from an institutional arthroplasty register. Methods 1367 were assessed Western...
An increasing number of patients in the working population are undergoing total hip and knee replacement for osteoarthritis timing success return to work (RTW) is becoming increasingly important as a measure these patients. There limited understanding patient variables that determine ability RTW. To explore factors influencing RTW following from patient's perspective. A cross-sectional population-based postal survey carried out with age after surgery UK teaching hospital. Free text comments...
Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ) is a growing martial art that focuses on grappling techniques.To quantify the 3-year incidence of BJJ-related injuries and detect common injury patterns as well risk factors among those practicing BJJ. It was hypothesized there would be high injuries, they caused by submissions in sparring situations, occur predominantly at extremities.Descriptive epidemiology study.Active BJJ athletes were invited to take an English-language online survey developed orthopaedic...
Abstract Introduction The goal of this study was to provide an insight into the clinical results after modular short-stem shoulder arthroplasty for various indications. Materials and methods A consecutive cohort 76 patients followed up 23–55 (mean 31.4) months. 23 anatomical (TSA), 32 reverse (RSA) 21 hemi-prostheses with a pyrocarbon head (PyC), using short stem proximal porous coating were implanted. Range motion, pain Constant score (CS) recorded. Comparisons pre- vs postoperative...
The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcome double intramedullary all-suture anchors' fixation for distal biceps tendon ruptures.A retrospective case series patients who underwent primary repair with anchors conducted. Functional assessed at a minimum follow-up 12 months based on assessments Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), Andrews-Carson (ACS), Quick Disabilities Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire (QuickDASH), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain. Maximum...
Proximal rectus femoris avulsions (PRFA) are relatively rare injuries that occur predominantly among young soccer players. The aim of this study was to evaluate midterm postoperative results including strength potential via standardized measurements after proximal tendon refixation. It hypothesized the majority competitive athletes return competition (RTC) refixation without significant or functional deficits compared contralateral side.Patients with an acute (< 6 weeks) PRFA who underwent...
Quadriceps tendon ruptures (QTR) occur predominantly in middle-aged patients through violent eccentric contraction that occurs either when trying to regain balance or during a fall on the hyperflexed knee. The aim of this study was quantify midterm postoperative results, including strength potential measured via standardized tests following acute (< six weeks) quadriceps refixation using suture anchors.All consecutive with QTR who underwent surgical anchor between 2012 and 2019 at single...
To investigate the influence of intertubercular groove (IG) morphology on development different types biceps reflection pulley (BRP) injuries.A consecutive cohort 221 patients with ventral shoulder pain and a preoperative diagnosis suspecting BRP injury, who underwent arthroscopy, was retrospectively reviewed. The presence or absence as well type injury (medial, lateral bilateral) confirmed arthroscopically. evaluated MRIs after triplanar reconstruction axial plane. IG depth, width, medial...
Background: Seminal classifications of degenerative arthritis the shoulder (DAS) describe either cuff tear arthropathy in coronal plane or primary osteoarthritis cross-sectional plane. None consider a biplanar eccentricity. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose this study was to investigate humeroscapular alignment (HSA) patients with DAS both anteroposterior (A-P) and superoinferior (S-I) planes on computed tomography (CT) after 3-dimensional (3D) reconstruction develop classification based HSA 9...
A novel three-dimensional classification to comprehensively describe degenerative arthritis of the shoulder (DAS) was recently published by our group. The purpose present work investigate intra- and interobserver agreement as well validity for classification.Preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans 100 patients who had undergone arthroplasty DAS were randomly selected. Four observers independently classified CT twice, with an interval 4 weeks, after prior reconstruction scapula plane...
