Biopsy is a crucial step within the diagnostic cascade in patients with suspected bone or soft tissue sarcoma. Open biopsy still considered gold standard. However, recent literature suggests similar results for percutaneous techniques. Therefore, aim of this retrospective analysis was to compare open and core needle (CNB) regarding their accuracy diagnosis malignant musculoskeletal lesions. From January 2007 December 2009, all primary tumour undergoing CNB subsequent resection at our...
For patients' safety reasons, current American Heart Association and European Resuscitation Council guidelines recommend intraosseous (IO) vascular access as an alternative in cases of emergency, if prompt venous catheterization is impossible. The purpose this study was to compare the IO a bridging procedure versus central (CVC) for in-hospital adult emergency patients under resuscitation with impossible peripheral intravenous (IV) access. We hypothesised, that CVC faster more efficacious...
Tears of the rotator cuff are highly prevalent in patients older than 60 years, thereby presenting a population also suffering from osteopenia or osteoporosis. Suture fixation bone depends on holding strength anchoring technique, whether tunnel suture anchor is selected. Because osteopenic osteoporotic changes, anchors patient might pull out, resulting failure repair.The aim our study was to analyze quality within tuberosities humeral head using high-resolution quantitative computed...
To retrospectively determine the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography shoulder in evaluation lesions biceps pulley and to evaluate previously described new signs.Institutional review board approval was obtained; requirement for informed consent waived. MR arthrograms 80 consecutive patients (mean age, 34.2 years; 53 male, 27 female) with arthroscopically proved intact or torn systems were assessed presence a lesion by three radiologists who blinded arthroscopic...
Background: Complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) describes chronic disturbances in self-organization (i.e. affect dysregulation; negative self-concept; severe difficulties relationships) which are frequently observed survivors of prolonged, repeated or multiple traumatic stressors. So far, evidence psychodynamic treatment approaches for CPTSD is scarce.
Background: Surgical approach to acute Rockwood grade III acromioclavicular (AC) joint injuries demands satisfying and reliable treatment results of shoulder function in the long term. This study investigates operative outcome AC separations after temporary K-wire transfixation over years. We hypothesize, that well-established articular dislocations with K-wires provides good consistent functional at Methods: Seventy patients who underwent followed by a standardized rehabilitation program...
Malignant bone tumors of the lower extremity are more frequently found in children and adolescents than adults. Modern treatment regimens led to high limb salvage rates offer choice between endoprosthetic replacement rotationplasty many cases. Rotationplasty has proven be an effective, highly functional option short- mid-term studies. Aim this study was assess long-term results regarding quality life functionality after compare obtained a representative healthy German sample cohort. In total...
Background Blunt cardiac injury is a rare trauma entity. Here, we sought to evaluate the relevance and prognostic significance of blunt in severely injured patients. Methods In retrospective multicentre study, using data collected from 47,580 patients enrolled TraumaRegister DGU (1993-2009), characteristics trauma, prehospital / hospital management, outcome analysis were correlated severity injury. The was assessed according abbreviated score (AIS 1-6), revised (RISC) allowed comparison...
Outcome of patients suffering from traumatic brain injury (TBI) depends on the development secondary damage. In this context, recent studies underlined role natriuretic peptides- atrial peptide and (BNP)-in aneurysmatic subarachnoidal hemorrhage (SAH). Especially BNP correlates with intracranial pressure clinical outcome after SAH. Since its in TBI remains unclear, systemic concentrations N-terminal (NT)-proBNP were analyzed severe TBI. We measured NT-proBNP levels cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)...
Concerning surgical management experience with locking plates for proximal humeral fractures has been described promising results. Though, distinct hardware related complaints after fracture union are reported. Information concerning the outcome removal of from humerus is lacking and most studies on focused lower extremity. Therefore aim this study was to analyze functional short-term following plate fixation humerus.Patients undergoing a were prospectively followed. Patients subdivided into...
