The aim of this study was to determine mortality and readmission outcomes in HF patients with and without early hospital discharge.
Material And Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted selecting 607 patients over 65years of age with HF intervened between January 2015 and December 2019, from which 164 patients with fewer comorbidities and ASA≤II were included for analysis and divided according to their post-operative hospital stay into early discharge or stay ≤4 days (n=115), and non-early or post-operative stay >4days (n=49).

Background And Objective: Since the description of the syndrome of the second intermetatarsal space, this is a common diagnosis among foot and ankle surgeons. However, no series have been published that consider this syndrome as its own entity. The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of the release of the intermetatarsal ligament and minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy in patients diagnosed with second space syndrome.

Introduction: Since the development of locking plates, calcaneal fractures have been considered ideal for this type of fixation, due to the need to maintain the height of the subastragaline joint after depression fractures in a location where bone quality tends to be poor. However, there are no comparative studies that support the theoretical superiority of these plates over conventional plates. The aim of this study was to compare the results of intraarticular calcaneal fractures treated using locking plates vs.
