Ankle and Hindfoot Symptoms after Medial Open Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy.

Medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) is a commonly performed procedure for symptomatic medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA). However, little is known about its effects on ipsilateral ankle or hindfoot. The aim of our study was to determine the incidence of ankle or hindfoot problems after MOWHTO and examine its association with radiological indices.

Changes in spinopelvic indices after hip arthroplasty and its influence on acetabular component orientation.

Objective: To evaluate spinopelvic changes after hip arthroplasty in standing and ready-to-rise positions.

Methods: We compared pelvic tilt, sacral slope, cobb's angle, and hip flexion on pre and postoperative spinopelvic radiographs.

Results: Standing: All postoperative indices were similar to preoperative ones except sacral slope (mean difference:1.

Cemented cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty in osteoarthritis: a comparison of pegged and stemmed tibial designs.

We compared the clinical, functional, and radiographic outcomes between pegged (37 knees in 37 patients) and stemmed (33 knees in 31 patients) tibial designs in patients undergoing primary cemented total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for osteoarthritis (OA). Outcomes were evaluated using the knee society score (KSS-Clinical and Function scores) and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS-pain, symptoms, stiffness, and function scores) at 6, 12, and 24 months postoperatively. Pre- and postoperative radiographs were evaluated for alignment and tibial coverage.

Bicompartmental versus total knee arthroplasty for medio-patellofemoral osteoarthritis: a comparison of early clinical and functional outcomes.

Severe medio-patellofemoral osteoarthritis (MPFOA) is often managed with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Bicompartmental knee arthroplasty (BKA), as compared with TKA can offer a bone and ligament preserving solution for MPFOA. We aimed to compare the early clinical and functional outcomes of modular BKA (n = 16) with TKA (n = 20) in MPFOA.
