Efficacy of Aspirin in Preventing Venous Thromboembolism in Total Knee and Hip Joint Replacement.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant complication following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA). Aspirin has gained attention as a cost-effective, safe alternative to traditional anticoagulants like enoxaparin, but comparative data on efficacy and safety remain limited.

Methods: This randomized controlled trial compared the efficacy of aspirin and enoxaparin in preventing VTE following TKA and THA.

Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty Associated With Unnoticed Glenohumeral Dislocation: A Case Report.

Osteonecrosis of the humeral head is seen in rare cases of anterior shoulder dislocations. There are many different surgical procedures that have been developed to repair inveterate anterior glenohumeral dislocation. Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is a type of surgery that has been shown to be very effective in patients with cuff tear arthropathy.

[Effect of tibial slope on functional recovery in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction].

Introduction: the tibial slope has been identified as one of the factors associated with graft failure after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction; however, its relationship with functional results has been little studied. The main purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the tibial slope on functional recovery in patients undergoing reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament.

Material And Methods: we included patients with a diagnosis of anterior cruciate ligament injury undergoing primary reconstruction, from May 2018 to May 2019, who had a complete radiographic and clinical record; also, the scores from questionnaires of the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm scores were collected pre surgical procedures and throughout the one-year follow-up.

[Effectiveness of peri-articular infiltration with local anesthetic and adjuvants for post-surgical pain control in total knee replacement].

Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most successful orthopedic treatments, however, it has been associated with severe postsurgical pain in 30-60% of patients. We propose that infiltration of the articular capsule of the knee during surgery will decrease postsurgical pain.

Material And Methods: Experimental, randomized, double-blind study in patients undergoing unilateral TKA between April 2018 and January 2019.
