The kinematic alignment (KA) approach to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has recently increased in popularity. Accordingly, a number of derivatives have arisen and caused confusion. Clarification is therefore needed for better understanding KA-TKA. Calipered (or true, pure) KA performed by cutting the bone parallel articular surface, compensating cartilage wear. In soft-tissue respecting , tibial surface decided femoral trial component) with in-line traction. These approaches are categorized...
Abstract A short keel-cortex distance (KCD), especially to the posterior cortex, is a potential risk factor for tibial plateau fracture after Oxford mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (OUKA). This study aimed evaluate effect of component alignment in coronal plane and proximal morphology on KCD. Included this were 51 patients scheduled primary medial (UKA). The anterior KCD preoperatively assessed using 3D simulation software with set perpendicular mechanical axis (neutral),...
Introduction Cementless Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (OUKA) has been shown to have less frequent radiolucent lines and equivalent or even better results than those of cemented OUKA. However, tibial fractures are more in cementless OUKA OUKA, especially Asian countries. A hybrid option, with a femur tibia, may, therefore, be good compromise. This study compares the clinical fully Materials methods retrospective included 108 consecutive arthroplasties implanted between September...
Physical frailty is an age-related clinical condition associated with deterioration of physiological capacity. In aged mice, increased RNA expression metabolism-related genes in circulating white blood cells (WBC) correlates impaired physical function. Twenty elderly volunteers were enrolled this exploratory analysis and the possible link between WBC impairment their function was investigated (jRCT1050210166. Feb. 02, 2022). mechanism action studies, cellular interactions muscle tissue mice....
A fracture of the medial tibial plateau is a serious complication Oxford mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (OUKA). The risk these fractures reportedly lower when using components with longer keel-cortex distance (KCDs). aim this study was to examine how slight varus placement component might affect KCDs, and rate fracture, in clinical setting.This retrospective included 255 patients who underwent 305 OUKAs cementless components. There were 52 males 203 females. Their mean age...
The moment arm of gluteus medius proportionated to distance from femoral head tends be decreased postoperatively in valgus-impacted neck fractures treated by situ internal fixation. aim this article is introduce a new gentle technique correct the deformity. innovative Minimally Invasive Closed Reduction for Impacted Femoral (MICRIF) mainly focused disimpact valgus into anatomical position. Patients were positioned on fracture table fix hip joint abduction and rotation. A 2.4-mm diameter...
Abstract In restricted kinematic alignment total knee arthroplasty (TKA), bone resection is performed within a safe range to help protect against failure from extreme alignments. Patient-specific instrumentation, navigations, and robotics are often required for restricting cuts specified zone. We hypothesized that the lateral malleolus could be used as landmark tibial osteotomy using mechanical jig. Here, we examine its feasibility in anatomical clinical settings. studied long-leg standing...
<title>Abstract</title> Background Physical frailty is an age-related clinical condition that accompanied by deterioration in physiological capacity. In aged mice, we had shown changes RNA expression of metabolism-related genes circulating white blood cells significantly altered with muscle weakness. Methods this explorative analysis, 20 elderly volunteers were enrolled and link between profiles physical was investigated. Results There significant differences genes, such as glucose...
This study aims to assess the influence of intramedullary rods on implantation positions femoral components using Microplasty instrumentation in Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. We hypothesized that can be laterally implanted incorrectly when rods.This prospective included all 45 consecutive patients (53 knees) who underwent arthroplasty surgery for anteromedial osteoarthritis or spontaneous osteonecrosis at our hospital during period. A custom-made toolset comprising a triangular...
Background For successful internal fixation for femoral neck fracture, the sliding mechanism of screw is important because it can induce inter-fragmental compression. The thread should penetrate fracture line and be located within proximal fragment. If engagement incomplete a part remains distal fragment, disturbed, potentially leading to failure. We hypothesized that in risk Methods studied 133 hips underwent using dual compression screws (DSCS) with 20 mm threads. existence failure (cut...
We treated two cases of humeral shaft nonunion by minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) without autogenous bone grafting.Case 1: An with intramedullary nailing (IMN) was performed on a 17-year-old female for fracture at another hospital; however, bony union not obtained. removed the nail and screws, then MIPO grafting. At final follow-up 4 years after surgery, she had obtained full range motion.Case 2: Osteosynthesis Rush pins been in 73-year-old hospital. Five months later,...
