Objective: This research sought to carry out a comparative study observing the clinical and radiographic analysis of primary prostheses of the type TC3 Depuy Johnson with or without a stem during a short-term follow-up.
Methods: The sample was divided into three groups: Group 1 (with stem), Group 2 (without stem) and Group 3 (mixed). Patients were evaluated to assess whether the implants were loosening and a clinical analysis was performed.
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury by indirect trauma and increased posterior tibial inclination. Retrospective study, performed by analysis of medical records and digital radiographs of patients, present in a database of a tertiary orthopedic hospital. The sample consisted of two groups, the first group consisting of patients diagnosed with ACL injury by indirect trauma, and a control group matched by age.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate how reliably MRI can classify meniscal ramp lesions based on an arthroscopic classification system.
- Twenty knee MRIs with confirmed ramp lesions were analyzed by two experienced radiologists and one radiology resident, assessing interobserver and intraobserver agreement using Cohen's kappa statistic.
- Results indicated that the MRI was effective in categorizing lesion types, showing substantial intraobserver agreement for skilled readers and a moderate level of agreement between observers, with joint effusion being the most common associated finding.

The occurrence of permanent patellar dislocation associated with severe osteoarthritis is considered rare and difficult to treat. Literature: The literature is quite controversial on the subject. The objective of the study is to report two rare cases of severe osteoarthritis with permanent dislocation of the patella that underwent total knee arthroplasty, in addition to a review of the literature on the subject and related surgical technique.

Methods: Thirty volunteer patients with a diagnosis of unilateral isolated chronic ACL injury for more than one year and a normal contralateral knee were selected. Digital radiographs were produced for all the patients, on both knees in absolute lateral view at 30° of flexion, with and without load-bearing on one leg, and in axial view of the patella at 30°.
Objective: this study aimed to evaluate the fixation of the trabecular metal wedge in patients undergoing revision of total hip arthroplasty.
Methods: twenty-three cases with minimum grading of Paprosky II-B that were operated between July 2008 and February 2013 were evaluated. These cases were evaluated based on radiographs before the operation, immediately after the operation and later on after the operation.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to investigate the number of fracture patients from small towns in Ceará receiving surgical treatment through the SUS in Fortaleza, covering 1,694 patients from various hospitals.
- - Findings revealed that 38.78% of these patients were from small towns, primarily single, adult males aged 1 to 97, with traffic accidents being the leading cause of injuries (30.4%).
- - The results indicate a need for preventive measures like traffic safety awareness campaigns, along with improvements in Traumatology Emergency services in small towns to better address these issues.
