Driving Simulator Brake Reaction Parameters After Total Hip Arthroplasty According to Different Surgical Approaches.

Background: The aim of this study is to validate the point of normalization of braking following total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to determine the relevance of the surgical approach.

Methods: Brake reaction parameters (BRPs), including brake reaction time, total brake time, and brake pedal depression force were measured in 90 patients who underwent primary arthroplasty of the right hip (42 with direct anterior approach and 48 with posterolateral approach) using a modern driving simulator. The driving parameters were measured preoperatively and every 2 weeks postoperatively until the eighth week.

Implications of the Overlapping Degree Between Proximal Fibula and Tibia for Placing the Optimal Syndesmotic Screw: A Virtual Cadaveric Study.

Background: To determine the optimal direction of the syndesmotic screw and to introduce a consistent landmark for practical application by analyzing three-dimensional (3D) modeling and virtual implantation.

Methods: A total of 105 cadaveric lower legs (50 males and 55 females; average height, 160.6 ± 7.
