Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a painful condition that can impair patient's quality of life. If nonoperative measures fail, progressively more invasive treatment options may be required. This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness ultrasound-guided leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma (LR-PRP) injections in refractory GTPS caused by bursitis and/or gluteal tendinopathy. An ethically approved, adequately powered, double-blinded randomized controlled (RCT) was...

Acquired digital fibrokeratoma is an uncommon, benign fibrous tumour that usually occurs in adults as a solitary lesion with typical size of less than 1cm.

Background: Incidence of infection following total elbow replacement (TER) is recognised to be higher compared hip or knee arthroplasty. Extensive swelling TER can complicate the wound healing which might lead infection. Tranexamic Acid (TXA) proven reduce blood loss peri-operatively contribute better outcomes. Our aim assess effect TXA in TER. Methods: A retrospective review a single surgeon case series. 10 patients had mainly for complicated fractures, four them were relatively...

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a painful condition characterised by around the greater trochanter usually affecting middle-aged women. The majority of patients will improve with conservative management such as physiotherapy and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs); however, if this fails then more invasive treatments including corticosteroid injections surgery may be required. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) an autologous blood product, which has higher concentration...

A nightstick fracture is an isolated of the ulnar shaft. Although operative and non-operative treatments have been commonly decided by degree displacement fracture, still there a controversy specially in those moderately displaced. Herein we report our experience with fractures.To evaluate treatment fracture.We retrospectively reviewed clinical notes, physiotherapy letters radiographs 52 patients shaft fractures.

Weighing up pros cons establish if would be choice in similar severe cases especially a context limited resources. Methods This was conducted between November...

Background: Infection rates after total ankle replacement (TAR) are known to be greater than those hip or knee arthroplasty. Swelling TAR can make wound healing more difficult, which lead infection. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been shown minimize blood loss surgery, improving outcomes. We aim assess the effect of TXA on and complications in TAR. Methods: The research looked retrospectively at patients who had procedures between September 2014 December 2019. were done using anterior approach a...

All were treated by fixation. Thirty had no post-operatively good outcome. Sixteen...

Surgical approaches for the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are directed towards alleviating pain, restoring function and preventing further joint deterioration. Surgery is proposed only when conservative measures have failed. Multiple been designated in early late disease. In this article, we reviewed literature one most common surgical procedure used treatment RA which synovectomy. A review was performed using automated computerized PubMed search, with keywords “rheumatoid...
