Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the time it takes for patients to return to work after undergoing trapezial resection surgery with the Mini TightRope® system and to identify factors that may delay this return.
- Researchers conducted a retrospective analysis of 36 patients who had the surgery between 2015 and 2016, collecting data through interviews, medical records, and work disability documents.
- Findings showed that the median time to return to work was 126 days, with self-employed individuals returning 72 days sooner, while those with previous work disabilities faced longer recovery times, but no significant differences were seen based on gender or specific work demands.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to assess the time to return to work (TRW) in patients undergoing trapezial resection using the Mini TightRope® system at our center and to investigate factors that might delay return to work following this surgery.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on patients who underwent Trapezial resection and suspensionplasty using the Mini TightRope® system between 2015 and 2016, with a minimum one-year follow-up. Telephone interviews were conducted along with a review of medical records and radiology reports, as well as temporary work disability documents, collecting epidemiological and occupational data.
We report a case of a 64 years-old-female patient with ruptured left Achilles tendon within two months of evolution that has gone unnoticed. By the application of a conservative treatment recovered complete and symmetrical functionality in five months time after the injury.

Methods: We studied retrospectively 67 patients with a recent inferior wall acute myocardial infarction who took an exercise stress test following Bruce protocol and a coronary angiography within 3 months. Four groups were defined according to the ST segment response to exercise: group I, no ST segment changes; group II, ST depression in leads V1-V4; group III, ST depression in leads V5-V6; and group IV, ST depression in leads V1-V6.
