Immediate Closed Reduction Technique for Cervical Spine Dislocations.

Study Design: Retrospective study.

Purpose: This research aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of patients with traumatic cervical spine dislocation who underwent closed reduction employing our approach.

Overview Of Literature: Bedside closed reduction is the quickest procedure for repairing traumatic cervical spine dislocations; nevertheless, it also possesses the risk of neurological deterioration.

Arterialization of plantar venous system via vein graft: A novel technique for reconstruction of heel pad degloving injuries.

Background: Patients with heel pad degloving injury frequently develop ischemic necrosis of the area, necessitating soft-tissue reconstruction surgery. We have developed a technique for arterialization of the plantar venous system via vein graft (APV) as the primary revascularization treatment. The objective of this study was to clarify both the utility of APV for the preservation of degloved heel pads and the impact of this preservation on clinical outcomes.

New special approach for shoulder stability after Malawer type IVB shoulder girdle resection: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Scapular prostheses are useful in shoulder stability after shoulder girdle resection for malignant bone tumors; however, they are difficult to obtain in Japan. Therefore, other methods must be considered, depending on the extent of resection. We report a case in which a clavicle-locking plate, Nesplon tape, and a proximal humeral prosthesis were used to ensure shoulder stability and preserve stable upper limb function.

Effect of Early vs Delayed Surgical Treatment on Motor Recovery in Incomplete Cervical Spinal Cord Injury With Preexisting Cervical Stenosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: The optimal management for acute traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) is unknown.

Objective: To determine whether early surgical decompression results in better motor recovery than delayed surgical treatment in patients with acute traumatic incomplete cervical SCI associated with preexisting canal stenosis but without bone injury.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This multicenter randomized clinical trial was conducted in 43 tertiary referral centers in Japan from December 2011 through November 2019.
