Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to compare leg length discrepancies (LLD) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the anterolateral-supine approach, focusing on the impact of preserving the medial iliofemoral ligament (mILFL) on postoperative outcomes.
- The study found that resection of the mILFL resulted in a higher likelihood of excessive leg lengthening, with significant differences in the proportion of patients experiencing LLD greater than 5 mm between the preservation and resection groups.
- Ultimately, preserving the mILFL during ALSA THA is suggested to minimize leg length discrepancies without increasing complications, particularly for patients with preoperative LLD of less than 15 mm.
Structural adhesives are currently applied in the assembly of automobiles, aircraft, and buildings. In particular, epoxy adhesives are widely used due to their excellent mechanical strength and durability. However, cured epoxy resins are typically rigid and inflexible; thus, they have low peel and impact strength.

Methods: A total of 306 patients who underwent SBRT at our institution between March 2017 and April 2022 were retrospectively evaluated. SBRT was performed at 35 Gy in five fractions over 5 or 10 days.
Background: We present a severe neonatal consequence due to the unexpected and crucial inversion of the fetal position after sudden termination of tocolysis during early labor of a woman with congenital uterine anomaly. It has been reported that congenital uterine anomalies latently affect the fetal position. The clinical pitfalls in childbirth with uterine anomalies are discussed here on the basis of clinical evidence.

Postoperative dislocation is the major problem with this approach. The conjoined tendon-preserving posterior (CPP) approach is a less invasive surgical approach than the conventional posterior approach to the hip, maintains posterior stability, and preserves short external rotators and joint capsules.
