Recurrent Abdominal Aggressive Fibromatosis with Incapacitating Hip Contracture - A Case Report.

Introduction: Aggressive fibromatosis (AF) is a fibroblastic locally aggressive neoplasm arising from the musculoaponeurotic stroma and has no metastatic potential. The high tendency of recurrence despite complete surgical resections makes the management of the condition onerous. It can result in significant morbidity with major functional loss due to the destruction of adjacent vital structures and organs.

Image-based robot assisted bicompartmental knee arthroplasty versus total knee arthroplasty.

Objective: To evaluate the short-term clinical outcomes of image-based robot-assisted bicruciate retaining bicompartmental knee arthroplasty and compare it to robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty in the Indian population.

Methods: Between December 2018 and November 2019, five patients (six knees) underwent robot-assisted bicompartmental knee arthroplasty (BCKA). These patients were demographically matched with five patients (six knees) who underwent robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) during the same period.

Accuracy in the Execution of Pre-operative Plan for Limb Alignment and Implant Positioning in Robotic-arm Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty and Manual Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Prospective Observational Study.

Aim: The objective of the study is to compare the accuracy of implant positioning and limb alignment achieved in robotic-arm assisted total knee arthroplasty(RATKA) and manual total knee arthroplasty(MTKA) to their respective preoperative plan.

Patients And Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted in a tertiary care centre between August 2018 and January 2020. 143 consecutive RATKA(105 patients) and 151 consecutive MTKA(111 patients) performed by two experienced arthroplasty surgeons were included.

Accuracy of tibial component positioning in the robotic arm assisted versus conventional unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.

Background: Our study aims to determine the planned accuracy of the tibial component placement in robotic arm assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) versus the conventional jig based UKA of the initial cases done in India for the first time with this particular robotic system.Materials & Methods: Study group 1 consisted of patients who underwent robotic arm (MAKO, Stryker, USA) assisted UKA. Group 2 consists of patients who underwent a standard conventional jig based (Oxford knee, Biomet, UK).

Indian Subcontinent's First Bilateral Supracondylar Level Upper Limb Transplantation.

This is the first case of supracondylar level transplant from the Indian subcontinent, performed for a bilateral below elbow amputee. It has a completely different set of challenges for the transplant team, with a relatively shorter ischemia time window. The technical considerations for the same have been discussed in detail in this article.
