Patellar tendon rupture is a rare but serious complication resulting in loss of knee extension that may develop during and after total arthroplasty negatively affects the patient's quality life. There are number surgical options available, from primary repair to reconstruction. Peroneus longus autograft has begun be used for extensor mechanism recent years. In this case report, we aimed present patient with traumatic patellar revision arthroplasty. conclusion, reconstruction using peroneus...

Objective: Atrophy of the muscles around hip and thigh has been reported in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). Total arthroplasty (THA) reduces pain improves quality life activity levels. Muscle strength also after THA. This study aimed to determine whether there is significant psoas muscle atrophy evaluate degree fat infiltration unilateral arthroplasty. Subject methods: Patients who underwent total for primary had lumbar vertebra magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) any reason one-year...

Background and Objective: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are very common among the athletic population. ACL reconstruction (ACLR) performed because of these is one procedures by orthopedic surgeons using different grafting methods. This study aims to compare data related post-operative 6-month isokinetic strength values, strength-related asymmetry rates, time parameters, joint angle in athletes who underwent ACLR with Modified All-inside (4ST) technique, on both healthy knee (HK)...

Background and Objectives: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a commonly performed orthopedic procedure, often accompanied by significant postoperative pain. The supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block (SIFIB), similar to an anterior lumbar plexus block, frequently used in hip surgeries. interspace between the popliteal artery capsule of posterior (IPACK) regional anesthesia technique that targets innervation capsule. This retrospective study aimed compare analgesic effects SIFIB + IPACK on...

Objective: To determine the myotoxicity of bupivacaine on muscles after suprainguinal fascia iliaca block for postoperative analgesia in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients through changes serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels during perioperative period.Study Design: Observational study.

Aim: Management of postoperative pain in hip surgeries is important for the quality recovery. When regional anesthesia techniques are added to multimodal analgesia plan, they increase effectiveness plan. Supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block (SIFIB) a technique that has been reported be effective surgery but requires use high-volume local anesthetics. Our aim this retrospective study investigate efficacy anesthetic SIFIB when administered at concentration lower than conventional...

Aim: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the main ligaments which provide mechanical stability knee, control anteroposterior translation and rotation movements play a key role in neuromuscular stability. The aim present study to compare 6th month balance results on operated non-operated sides athletes who underwent ST/G anterior reconstruction (ACL). 
 Material Method: was evaluated as retrospective cohort consisting patients semitendinosus/gracilis hamstring autograft (ST/G) ACL...

We aimed to investigate the associations between radiographic phenotypes and presence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).We evaluated women age 40 over who presented our outpatient clinics pain fulfilled clinical criteria for classification idiopathic OA knee. Patients were categorized into two groups concerning dominant phenotype. included consecutive 50 each group. All terms MetS according revised diagnostic National Cholesterol Education Program Adult...

Olecranon fractures represent approximately 10% of all around the elbow in adults.Olecranon occur by a fall or blunt trauma on posterior tip elbow, forces generated triceps muscle during fall.Olecranon were seen as unilateral fractures, however bilateral olecranon pathological fractures.Anatomic restoration articular surface, repair extensor mechanism and full range motion with stability are main goals treatment fractures.Operative management should be performed when there is any incongruity...
