Long-Term Results for Treatment of Chronic Ankle Instability With Fibular Periosteum Ligamentoplasty and Extensor Retinaculum Flap.

Long-term results of anatomic reconstruction for chronic ankle instability are good, but no study has shown the results of fibular periosteum ligamentoplasty associated with extensor retinaculum flap at long-term follow-up. To demonstrate the efficacy of fibular periosteum ligamentoplasty and extensor retinaculum flap in chronic lateral instability, 40 patients underwent surgery for ankle instability. Thirty-three (82.

[Cartilaginous tumours].

Cartilaginous tumours are rare and often incidentally discovered on imaging. They can also be responsible for osteoarticular symptoms (pain, joint stiffness, deformity or fracture) and will require a clinical, radiological and a histopathological assessment. Depending on the lesion, the management may consist of observation or a complex surgical procedure that will take place after a multidisciplinary discussion including the radiologist, the pathologist and the orthopaedic surgeon.

[Robotic surgery : the future of prosthetic surgery ?].

Indications for hip and knee replacement will continue to grow over the next few years. Robotic systems have been developed since the early 1990s in order to optimize implant positioning, to potentially improve clinical results, and to reduce perioperative morbidity. Currently, the different available systems certainly improve the accuracy and reproducibility of prosthetic components placement.
