Muscle activity analysis using electromyography during sensory collapse test: An experimental case report.

A 48-year-old right-handed male surgeon complained of finger numbness, pain, cramps and weakness of 2 years' progression, without improvement after 2 carpal tunnel corticosteroid injections and splinting. The patient was diagnosed with lacertus syndrome with Hagert's triad. Sensory collapse test was positive, but the sensations during the test were not consistent with the literature.

Changes in professional practices. Contribution of conformity scoring in assessing and improving operative reports: The SCHOCRO.

Introduction: In orthopedics, as in all surgical specialties, procedures are described in an operative report. This is an essential and mandatory part of the medical file (Article R.1112-2 of the French Public Health Code) and a fully codified medicolegal document comprising precise items determined by the Health Authority (HAS) and the ORTHORISQ risk management and accreditation organization.

Modified Lateral Approach of the Elbow for Surgical Release and Synovectomy.

Elbow stiffness is a common reason for consultation. In recent years, arthroscopic techniques in elbow surgery have progressed, but there are still some contraindications to performance of arthroscopic synovectomy and release in this joint (elbows with anatomic deformity after multiple procedures, malunion, presence of osteosynthesis material, severe stiffness of >80 degrees, instability, or previous transposition of the ulnar nerve). Therefore, knowledge of a safe and reliable open approach to achieve elbow release and/or synovectomy is essential.

Fixed-hinge cemented modular implants: An effective reconstruction technique following primary distal femoral bone tumor resection. A 136-case multicenter series.

Background: Reconstruction by endoprosthesis is widespread after bone tumor resection. The design and type of fixation and of hinge remain a matter of debate. The aim of the present study was to assess survival, complications and functional results in a homogeneous series of adult patients undergoing bone defect reconstruction following distal femoral tumor resection, using a single model of fixed-hinge cemented endoprosthesis, at a minimum 5 years' follow-up.
