Sixty consecutive patients with spinal injuries and encroachment upon the canal of greater than 20% were assessed for neurological outcome. The divided into two groups, those undergoing posterior surgery alone, anterior formal decompression or without instrumentation. In surgery, an improvement rate in function 83% was noted incomplete lesions, whereas 88% found procedure. There no statistical difference outcome between these groups. Positive correlations level injury Frankel grades. cord...
The lateral substitution reconstruction operation described by MacIntosh has been evaluated in 27 patients with chronic anterior cruciate ligament deficiency of the knee. results, at an average 11.3 years after operation, have assessed a scoring system which allocates maximum 25 points each for function and clinical evaluation. Emphasis was placed on subjective giving way objective evidence positive drawer sign pivot shift test. A score 46 to 50 classified as excellent, 41 fair, less than...
The kicking action predominantly used in Australian Rules football is considered to be responsible for many lower limb injuries. aim of this study was describe a non-invasive method identifying the thigh muscles involved an football, using MRI. Both upper thighs 10 recreational footballers were examined 1.5-T General Electric MRI scanner before and immediately after carrying out set exercise protocol. signal intensity (SI) changes 14 individual investigated standardized region interest...
Graft extrusion following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion is a recognized complication. We report case of oral synthetic graft (BOP B, Biocompatible Orthopaedic Polymer).
The results of a consecutive series 110 patients treated with the locking-hook spinal rod are presented. A prospective protocol was completed in 95 patients. Pain absent or mild 93%. In those partial neurologic deficit, there recovery at least one Frankel grade 84%. overall kyphotic deformity reduced from 21 to 17°. whom no anterior surgery performed, improved 13°. No fractures occurred, and instrument complication rate 13.7%, which due infection four secondary uncrimped nuts, for true 8.4%....
1462 Inappropriate coordination of several common anatomical mechanisms may in part be responsible for the dramatic rise ACL injuries amongst athletes. Firstly, two biarticular muscle groups, hamstrings and quadriceps, cross both hip knee. Secondly, co-activation is these antagonists. Thirdly, maximal tension varies directly as a result vivo length. Certain sporting activities permit injurious (unstable) conditions to exist at one joint (the knee) inappropriate muscular control second hip)....
