The absence of a positive family history (PFH) in 10%–25% patients poses diagnostic challenge for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In the Toronto Genetic Epidemiology Study Polycystic Kidney Disease, 210 affected probands underwent renal function testing, abdominal imaging, and comprehensive PKD1 PKD2 mutation screening. From this cohort, we reviewed all with without an apparent history, examined their parental medical records, performed imaging available parents unknown...
Abstract Background Postinjury multiple organ failure (MOF) is the leading cause of late trauma deaths, with primarily non‐modifiable risk factors. Timing surgery as a potentially modifiable factor frequently proposed, but has not been quantified. We aimed to compare mortality, hospital length stay (LOS), and ICU LOS between MOF patients who had that preceded timings versus those timings. Methods Retrospective analysis an ongoing 17‐year prospective cohort study polytrauma at‐risk MOF. Among...
The addition of onlay biological grafts to augment difficult rotator cuff repairs has shown encouraging results in a case series.The purpose this study was determine whether the an bioinductive implant would improve repair integrity, shear wave elastographic appearance repaired tendon and patch, patient-rated and/or surgeon-measured shoulder function when used workers' compensation patients undergoing revision arthroscopic repair. We hypothesized that enhance integrity clinical outcomes...
It is undetermined which factors predict return to work after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.To identify predicted at any level and preinjury levels of 6 months repair.Case-control study; Level evidence, 3.Multiple logistic regression analysis prospectively collected descriptive, preinjury, preoperative, intraoperative data from 1502 consecutive primary repairs, performed by a single surgeon, was independent predictors postoperatively.Six repair, 76% patients had returned work, 40% work....
How the material properties of human supraspinatus tendon change following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is undetermined. Shear wave elastography ultrasound a relatively new, noninvasive measure tissue stiffness. We aimed to evaluate any temporal changes in stiffness and/or thickness tendons humans primary repair.Shear was performed at three predetermined regions by single sonographer 1-, 6-, 12-, 24-, and 52 weeks postoperatively 50 consecutive single-row inverted mattress repairs....
Abstract Background Postoperative stiffness affects up to 20% of patients following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Recent evidence indicates that early postoperative may associated with lower retear rates. This study aimed identify the independent predictors stiffness. Methods A retrospective cohort 1526 repairs was performed. Range motion at 6‐week postop used stiff patients. Stiffness defined as external rotation <27.5 o or forward flexion <145 . Multiple logistic regression...
Background: Superior capsule reconstruction (SCR) is an option for the treatment of massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears. However, which materials yield strongest constructs remains undetermined. Purposes: We sought to investigate whether SCR with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or human dermal allograft (HDA), 2 3 glenoid anchors, and suture minitape resulted in better failure load properties at patch-glenoid interface. Methods: conducted a biomechanical study 30 glenoid-sided repairs...
BackgroundThe Latarjet procedure was developed for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability in young, high-demand patients with attritional glenoid bone loss, whose risk re-dislocation following primary dislocation may exceed 90%. Coracoid graft osteolysis and prominent screws are commonly observed late postoperative CT scans, but clinical relevance overall cohort is undetermined. We aimed to evaluate radiological outcomes who underwent procedure, determine if severe coracoid...
From the surgeon's perspective, a successful rotator cuff is one that remains intact. However, it undetermined which factors contribute to an improved shoulder from patient's perspective. The aim of this study was determine variables predicted greater patient-rated benefit presurgery 6 months postarthroscopic repair.
Interposition graft rotator cuff repair is one option for the treatment of massive, otherwise irreparable tears. It undetermined how different suturing techniques influence morphology at patch-tendon interface in interposition repairs, particularly with respect to increased cross-sectional area site post-exposure cyclic loading, which may healing. We aimed analyze grafts used polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) repairs differed according whether was secured using multiple mattress technique or...
It is undetermined which factors predict return to work following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. We aimed identify predicted at any level, and pre-injury levels of 6 months post-arthroscopic Multiple logistic regression analysis prospectively collected demographic, pre-injury, preoperative, intraoperative data from 1502 consecutive primary repairs, performed by a single surgeon, was independent predictors work, respectively, post-surgery. Six post-rotator repair, 76% patients returned...
Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) for massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears involves anchoring a graft between the superior glenoid and greater tuberosity of humerus. Optimizing size is important. We aimed (1) to evaluate reliability plain film radiography in determining SCR (2) create database help predict future sizes. An inter- intra-rater trial was conducted on 10 6 subjects with healthy shoulders, respectively, using measure distance supraspinatus footprint. The were positioned...
