Article Synopsis
  • - The study explored the use of nonabsorbable suture material for augmenting biologic grafts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) to improve healing and biomechanical strength, comparing standard ACLR with suture-augmented ACLR in terms of short-term outcomes and complication rates.
  • - Data was collected from 79 patients in the standard group and 90 in the suture-augmented group, assessing their functional recovery through the IKDC and Tegner-Lysholm scores over a 24-month follow-up period.
  • - Results showed that patients who underwent suture augmentation reported significantly better scores (IKDC: 85.6 vs. 75.8; Tegner-Lysholm:

Background: Severe varus deformity of the knee poses a technical challenge in balancing the flexion-extension gaps. The use of a varus-valgus constrained prosthesis is a solution to achieve coronal plane stability. The results of constrained condylar knee (CCK) implants in primary total knee arthroplasty are not well known.

Also known as intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia, Masson's tumor is a relatively rare soft-tissue vascular tumor that usually arises in the hand. Felon is an abscess formation in the distal phalanx that usually occurs following a penetrating microtrauma. We present a 30-year-old patient who was referred to our clinic with a palpable mass in the distal phalanx of the index finger after a needle stick injury.

Background: The present study aims to evaluate the diagnostic exactitude of the intraoperative Chertsey test in tibiofibular syndesmotic injuries in patients with malleolar fractures, in comparison with a computed tomography (CT) scan.

Materials And Methods: In this study, patients with malleolar fractures operated between 2018 and 2020 were examined. Thirty-nine patients were enrolled in the study.

Streptokinase is a fibrinolytic agent that enhances plasmin activation and is used in selected patients with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Similar to the other thrombolytics, a common side effect is bleeding, especially from venous puncture sites. Here, we present a case of acute anterior wall STEMI complicated by large spontaneous iliopsoas hematoma after streptokinase administration.
