Background And Aims: We provide an overview and data visualization trends of orthopaedic research published by the Journal of Orthopedics (JOO) from 2013 to 2024.
Methods: We used Scopus database to retrieve all articles published by the JOO from 2013 to 2024, as of 15.7.
Background: Oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare paraneoplastic association of Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT) secreting excessive levels of a PTH like substance. They usually remain undiagnosed and patients suffer for years. The rarity of this tumor and its non-specific clinical presentations poses great challenge to the treating surgeons.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Shoulder Injuries Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA), describes those cases of shoulder severe post-inoculation complications, including pain and prolonged disability. Most of the reported cases have been secondary to influenza vaccination. This study retrospectively describes a series of 18 patients following SARS-CoV-2 inoculation and compares the findings with those previously reported for other vaccines.

Materials And Methodsl: Between October 2017 and September 2019, we performed Carpal Tunnel release procedures on 122 consecutive patients with unilateral idiopathic CTS. Patients in Group A (64 patients) had a palmar mini open longitudinal incision at wrist.
Background: Many surgeons are unaware of the risks posed by the surgical diathermy. Apart from the numerous chemicals, surgical smoke had been shown to harbour intact bacterial and virus particles especially COVID-19 in the current time.
Objective: To identify the inhalational, infectious, chemical, and mutagenic risks of surgical smoke and suggest evidence-based hazard reduction strategies.
Unlabelled: Isolated midtarsal (Chopart's) joint dislocations are rare, although cases involving medial, lateral, plantar, and dorsal displacement have been reported. These dislocations are often associated with osteochondral fractures. To the best of our knowledge, isolated dorsal midtarsal dislocation owing to plantarflexion of the forefoot on the hindfoot with the ankle in a neutral or dorsiflexed position is rare.

Objective: To illustrate the significance of identifying butterfly vertebra that may be confused with other pathologic conditions like fractures, infections, and metastases.
Summary Of Background Data: We report a 46-year-old woman with butterfly vertebra of T6 spine.
Background Context: Epithelioid angiosarcoma (EA) is a high-grade sarcoma of vascular origin. EA is a rare variant of angiosarcoma. It is characterized by large cells with an epethelioid morphology.

Early mobilization is a key treatment principle in the geriatric population. We present a case report of an elderly diabetic patient with osteoarthritis of the knee joint who sustained a patellar fracture and was treated with single-stage primary total knee arthroplasty and fixation of the patellar fracture.

We measured the mediolateral (ML), middle anteroposterior (AP), medial and lateral anteroposterior dimensions and the aspect ratio (ML/AP) of the resected proximal tibial surface; we then compared this data with the five conventionally used symmetric total knee components. We found that the ML (73.

Various causes have been reported for cystic lesions arising from the cruciate ligaments. We present a case of synovial chondromatosis that involved the posterior cruciate ligament and was treated by an arthroscopic posterior-posterior triangulation method. We recommend that synovial chondromatosis be considered in the differential diagnosis of cystic lesions of the cruciate ligaments.

We report here on a case of haemorrhagic synovial cyst arising from the posterior cruciate ligament with extension into the posterior compartment of the knee joint. We treated this lesion using the arthroscopic posterior-posterior triangulation technique.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFUnicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) has gained popularity in the recent years for treating medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee joint in the Asian population. There is little information about the anthropometry of the resected bony surfaces of the knee joint in these population groups for designing the appropriate size-matched UKA components. We studied the anthropometry of the resected medial tibial condyles in 50 male and 50 female Korean cadavers by using three-dimensional computer tomography.
