Bailout Options for Intra-operative Implant and Instrumentation Related Incidents and Complications During Arthroscopic Knee Surgery-A Retrospective Study.

Background: Arthroscopic knee procedures are one amongst the common surgical interventions for problems in the knee. It is technically more demanding than an open procedure and is associated with several potential complications. During arthroscopy procedures, several technical challenges may arise, and even experienced surgeons may encounter new issues.

Revision of Failed Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Repair: A Case Report.

Introduction: Meniscal root tear decreases the ability of the meniscus to convert the axial load to radially directed hoop stress. This leads to a decreased contact area and increased contact pressures, leading to early osteoarthrosis of the knee and eventually higher chances of undergoing total knee replacement. Meniscal root repair helps to restore normal knee kinematics; however, non-anatomical repair results in increased strain in the repair and causes early failure of the repair, leading to abnormal knee kinematics.

The Proximity of the Axillary Nerve During Keyhole Tenodesis of the Long Head of the Biceps Tendon: A Cadaveric Study.

Background: Over time, surgical management for conditions involving the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) has evolved. Some techniques, such as keyhole tenodesis proposes bicortical drilling, however, carries an axillary nerve injury risk. The goal of our cadaveric study was to see if we could keep a safe zone between the point of exit of keyhole tenodesis of biceps and axillary nerve.

Operative stabilisation versus non-operative management of mid-shaft clavicle fractures.

Introduction: Fractures of the mid-shaft clavicle are commonly encountered in clinical practice. These can be managed either by conservative method or operative by internal fixation. This study aims to compare the outcomes of conservative and operative management.

Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy Type II in a Female Child with Multiple Orthopaedic Ailments: Diagnosis and Operative Management.

Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy (HSAN) Type II is an autosomal recessive genetic disease which presents predominantly with sensory neuropathy and neuropathic ulcers. HSAN Type II is a rare disease, and in the few cases that have been reported, the focus has been on identifying genetic markers of the disease. Orthopaedic conditions may be a major presentation of the disease, and the prevention of superficial trauma and foot care is the only definitive management.

Cross-sectional assessment of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis (OA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are prevalent in India. However, there is dearth of literature among Indians studying the relationship between the two. This study was carried out to assess various cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in patients with knee OA with an objective to investigate their association, screening and management.

Comparison of radiological and functional outcome of unstable intertrochanteric femur fractures treated using PFN and PFNA-2 in patients with osteoporosis.

Introduction: Presently, unstable intertrochanteric femur fractures are treated commonly with intramedullary nailing devices. Various designs of intramedullary nail are introduced. The conventional Proximal Femoral Nail has given diverse outcome.
