Background The efficacy of single-bundle versus double-bundle ACL reconstruction in improving knee stability has been widely discussed. biomechanics all-inside reconstructions have not evaluated. Hypothesis An anatomic will more effectively restore native kinematics vitro, especially rotational stability, when compared with an reconstruction. Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Methods Seven pairs fresh-frozen cadaveric human knees were used. Knees tested using 88 N force for anterior...
Abstract Background Double bundle ACL reconstruction has been demonstrated to decrease rotational knee laxity. However, there is no simple, commercially-available device measure rotation. The investigators developed a non-invasive In conjunction with rigid boot rotate the tibia and force/moment sensor allow precise determination of torque about knee, magnetic tracking system measures axial rotation respect femur. This shown have acceptable levels test re-test reliability in cadaveric knees....
Background Misplacement of the bone tunnels is one main causes graft failure anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Hypothesis Anatomic tunnel placement in surgery reconstruction will lead to improved outcomes, including biological ingrowth and biomechanical properties, when compared with nonanatomic placement. Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Methods Anterior reconstructions were performed on 3 different groups goats (1 anatomic group 2 groups, 10 each group). For knees, knees used...
In the process of applying into medical residency, Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) requires critical documents including a personal statement. Utility statements are questioned based on suspected congruity content within among those who apply orthopaedic surgery. The goal this study was to identify and categorize thematic elements found 2021 2022 surgery applicants at single institution assess correlation interview invitation.
Introduction : Radiographic widening in the scapholunate (SL) joint due to lunotriquetral (LT) coalition has historically been viewed as normal reported false positives of SL dissociation/widening patients with LT coalition. Minimal further investigations have on these findings. Methods Scapholunate interval, angle, third CMC space, and ligamentous measurements CT, MRI, X-ray imaging were compared for those without A multilevel one-way ANOVA was used analyze CT angle versus control group....
A small but significant fraction of screw placement in the proximal femur for hip fractures results iatrogenic associated with hole [1]. There is evidence that failure occurs under fatigue, and it likely those individuals experiencing have greater stresses as dictated by key morphometric variables, such cortical thickness bone size. Finite element analysis (FEA) could greatly facilitate fracture risk assessment presurgical phase predicting local stresses, however, executing FEM a patient...
Background: Yoga is a popular activity involving extreme wrist positioning and extension loading. Our purpose was to quantify the prevalence of preoperative yoga participation characterize subsequent ability return in patients undergoing volar locked plating distal radius fractures. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all cases open reduction internal fixation between August 2015 March 2017. Patients were included if they treated with participated on regular basis preoperatively. contacted...
No previous study recreating an isolated thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) dislocation with or without suture augmentation has been performed in the laboratory. This investigation aimed to evaluate mechanism and ligamentous complex of CMC dislocations.
<p>We report the interesting case of a 33 years old male who underwent operative intervention for left oblique proximal phalanx shaft fracture third finger which penetrated transverse retinacular ligament (TRL). This patient required due to entrapment bony fragment in TRL acted as noose with traction on fractured segment. The was irreducible through closed maneuver. use dorsal approach allowed visualization site and implementation screws fixation deemed adequate secondary patient’s...
<p>An 11-year-old male sustained an irreducible, completely displaced epiphyseal fracture of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) middle finger with associated central slip injury. Central injuries occurring in conjunction Salter-Harris type II phalanx are rare entities, no previously documented case. Our patient underwent open reduction, internal fixation through crossed-pins to achieve reduction and fixation. He was then splinted extension for six weeks allow healing At 1-year...
