Article Synopsis
- - The study aims to clarify factors associated with revision surgery after lower limb amputations due to trauma, addressing the gap in information available to both patients and surgeons regarding patients' outcomes and potential complications.
- - Conducted as a single-center, retrospective study over a decade, it analyzed 86 patients who had undergone lower limb amputations, focusing on their survivorship and functional outcomes, with a high rate of follow-up and prosthesis fitting.
- - Key questions explored included the rate of initial amputation survivorship without revisions, patient and injury-related factors that might lead to revision, and how these factors affect the functional outcomes of patients post-surgery.
Background: Implant removal in orthopaedics after fracture consolidation is a very common procedure but is still associated with a high rate of surgical site infection (SSI). Antibiotic prophylaxis is not recommended but advocated by some.
Aim: To assess the efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis in the prevention of early SSI following orthopaedic implant removal.
Dominantly inherited GAA repeat expansions in FGF14 are a common cause of spinocerebellar ataxia (GAA-FGF14 ataxia; spinocerebellar ataxia 27B). Molecular confirmation of FGF14 GAA repeat expansions has thus far mostly relied on long-read sequencing, a technology that is not yet widely available in clinical laboratories. We developed and validated a strategy to detect FGF14 GAA repeat expansions using long-range PCR, bidirectional repeat-primed PCRs, and Sanger sequencing.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed among patients with deep hand burns requiring a modified Colson flap between 2018 and 2021. Outcomes included functional and cosmetic assessment of the hand through a quality-of-life questionnaire, a sensitivity scale and a scar assessment scale.
