Clin Transplant
February 2022
Article Synopsis
- * Approximately 11.6% of patients showed preoperative PVT, which was linked to higher overall mortality (HR 1.45) and graft loss (HR 1.58), especially in more severe cases (grade 3 and 4 PVT).
- * The findings suggest that patients with pre-transplant PVT face higher risks of post-operative PVT, and preventive anticoagulation might help improve their outcomes post-transplant.

Article Synopsis
- - The review conducts a meta-analysis to estimate the outcomes of meniscus repair after surgery, focusing on failure rates and other clinical results over different postoperative time frames.
- - Results show that meniscal repair failure rates increase from 12% within the first year to 19% by six years post-surgery, with similar rates observed when repairs are done alongside ACL reconstruction.
- - The development of osteoarthritis after meniscus repair was noted to be 4% at 2-3 years and 10% at 4-6 years, particularly in patients whose knees were previously healthy.
