Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of an intradiscal fibrin sealant for treating adults with chronic low back pain caused by disc issues.
- Conducted at three U.S. centers, the prospective pilot study involved 15 subjects whose pain was confirmed through specific medical tests.
- Results indicated that while some adverse events occurred, the treatment showed significant reductions in pain levels and improved disability scores over time, suggesting it could be a beneficial option for certain patients.
Background: The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the long-term results after the treatment of medial compartment gonarthrosis with a proximal tibial osteotomy to determine whether various clinical and radiographic factors relate to the outcome.
Methods: From 1972 to 1990, seventy-six valgus-producing high tibial osteotomies were performed in sixty-six patients with medial compartment gonarthrosis. Stabilization was achieved with use of a plate on the lateral side of the proximal part of the tibia and a figure-of-eight wire on the medial side.
