Trochleoplasty and à-la-carte procedures for patellar instability in young and active patients: Clinical outcomes at minimum 2 Years follow-up.

Introduction: Patellar instability is a common condition affecting approximately 6 individuals per 100,000, but among adolescents, this incidence is notably higher. Trochlear dysplasia has been recognized as the pathoanatomic risk factor exerting the most significant biomechanical influence. Over time, various surgical techniques have been developed to address trochlear dysplasia.

The use of a modern robotic system for the treatment of severe knee deformities.

Background: Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) have shown promising results in recent years with improved clinical outcomes using standard primary implants.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the experience of a single center in correcting severe coronal deformities with the use of a robotic-assisted TKA system and an increased constrained implant.

Methods: Between July 2020 and December 2022, 30 knees in 28 patients with a major deformity and an associated ligament laxity requiring an increased constrained implant treated using an imageless robotic-assisted TKA were prospectively enrolled.

A well performing medial fixed bearing UKA with promising survivorship at 15 years.

Background: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) accounts for 10% of knee arthroplasty procedures in Europe. Fixed bearing UKA designs have shown favorable survivorship in registries when compared with mobile bearings. This study analyses long-term follow-up of patients with a medial fixed bearing metal backed tibial UKA and reports 15 years survivorship and clinical outcomes.

Association of postoperative delirium with markers of neurodegeneration and brain amyloidosis: a pilot study.

The aim of the study was to investigate the association between postoperative delirium (POD) and in vivo markers of Alzheimer's disease pathology in nondemented hip fracture surgery patients. POD was assessed with the Confusion Assessment Method. Amyloid load was quantified on F-Flutemetamol positron emission tomography images as standardized uptake value ratio.
