Contemporary Review: Autograft Bone Use in Foot and Ankle Surgery.

Unlabelled: Bone autografts are frequently harvested for use in foot and ankle surgery. A commonly used harvest site is the iliac crest; however, because of known morbidity with this site, the tibia and calcaneus are attractive alternatives. There remains limited understanding regarding the osteogenic potential of autografts from each of these locations.

Routine immediate postoperative radiographs rarely identify unknown complications after shoulder arthroplasty.

Background: Intraoperative complications after shoulder arthroplasty (SA) are uncommon, yet surgeons continue to obtain immediate postoperative radiographs despite prior literature questioning the efficacy of these images. There is a paucity of literature describing the role of immediate postoperative radiographs in revision SA. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of immediate postoperative radiographs in identifying intraoperative complications leading to a change in care after primary or revision SA.
