Article Synopsis
- The study assesses the long-term outcomes of all-arthroscopic treatments for terrible triad injuries, focusing on patients followed for at least 5 years.
- It compares two groups: one treated with conservative or arthroscopic fixation of stable radial head fractures, and the other with arthroscopic partial excision of unstable fractures.
- Results indicate no significant difference in clinical outcomes between both treatment methods, but the excision group had a higher incidence of heterotopic ossifications, with no impact on elbow joint stability.
Background: This study aimed to identify risk factors for chronic syndesmotic instability following syndesmotic fixation.
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of consecutive patients who had sustained ankle fractures requiring syndesmotic fixation. Patients available for a minimum 5 years of follow-up were classified into 2 groups according to the presence of syndesmotic instability.
Background: Although several arthroscopic surgical techniques for the treatment of chronic ankle instability (CAI) have been introduced recently, the effect of inferior extensor retinaculum (IER) augmentation remains unclear.
Purpose: To compare the clinical outcomes after arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) repair according to whether additional IER augmentation was performed or not.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
Background: Hip avulsion fractures occur mostly during adolescence when actions such as kicking or running cause forceful contraction of attached muscle. Osteochondroma is benign tumor that mostly occurs at the metaphysis of a long bone, being usually asymptomatic.
Case Summary: A 15-year-old patient experienced feeling and sound of a break while kicking a ball in soccer game three years prior to his visit to our hospital.
Background: Immunofluorescence analyses of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) allografts following remnant-preserving ACL reconstruction using Achilles tendon allografts have provided evidence for the presence of neural elements. In this study, we aimed to examine the expression of neural elements and quantify the presence of neural cells in ACL remnants and Achilles allografts using nerve growth factor (NGF) therapy after remnant-preserving ACL reconstruction.
Methods: Experiments were conducted on 5 pairs of rats (approximately 8 weeks old and weighing 320 g at the time of surgery).
Background: Surgical treatment consisting of decompression and fusion is generally known to produce good clinical results for lumbar spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis. However, the clinical outcome of decompression alone, without fusion, remains unclear, and long-term follow-up results are scarce. This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the 5-year clinical results of decompression only in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis and degenerative spondylolisthesis.
