Pharmacological prevention of arthrofibrosis: a systematic review.

Background And Aims: Arthrofibrosis is a complication of intra-articular knee surgery which is caused by intra-articular fibrosis. To date, several preventive therapies for arthrofibrosis have been reported. This systematic review aims to summarize current knowledge about pharmacological arthrofibrosis prevention.

A Case Report of a National Judo Champion: Is Return to High-Level Contact Sports Possible After Meniscus Allograft Transplantation?

Meniscus allograft transplantation (MAT) is a surgical procedure reserved for (relatively) younger individuals who remain symptomatic after the resection of a voluminous part of the meniscus. Return to sports and certainly the level of sport post-MAT are highly variable. We present a unique case of a national judo champion who was able to compete at the highest level following MAT.

New Anatomical Concepts regarding Pubic-Related Groin Pain: A Dissection Study.

Objective: Pubis-related groin pain remains a difficult topic in orthopedic and sports medicine. A better understanding of the anatomy of the adductors and the pubic ligaments is necessary. The aim of this study is to map all the musculotendinous attachments to the pubic ligaments and to investigate in detail all the possible inter-adductor fusions.

Intramuscular Oxygenation and Muscle Activity of Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis During Piano Performance: An Observational Study.

Background: Repetitive piano movements have been associated with playing-related musculoskeletal disorders (PRMDs) such as forearm myalgia and symptoms of lateral epicondylopathy. Despite the high prevalence of PRMDs among pianists, there is poor understanding regarding the underlying physiological mechanisms. Intramuscular oxygenation may play a role in the development of PRMDs.

New insights into the musculotendinous and ligamentous attachments at the pubic symphysis: A systematic review.

Objective: Collection and meta-analysis of all relevant anatomical studies related to the pubic symphysis to provide a state of the art review of its musculotendinous and ligamentous attachments from 2010 to date.

Methods: A systematic search of published literature databases (PubMed, Web of Science and Embase) was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines from January 2010 up until now. All papers investigating the anatomy of the musculotendinous attachments of the pubis and the pubic ligaments were eligible.
