Tibial slope changes following guided growth by the eight-plate: A retrospective comparative study.

Objective: The aims of this study were (1) to investigate the tibial slope (TS) changes following guided growth by the eight-plate and to determine the relationship between the TS change in the sagittal plane and the plate position.

Methods: In this retrospective study, children who underwent guided growth by the eight-plate for genu varum or valgum were included. Thirty-eight extremities of 23 children (14 girls and 9 boys; mean age = 9.

Arthroscopic evaluation of failed primary type II SLAP lesion repair in patients with high physical activity over 40 years of age and the outcomes of tenotomy.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to examine patients over 40 years of age who underwent failed primary isolated type 2 superior labrum anterior posterior (SLAP) repair arthroscopically and to evaluate the outcomes of tenotomy.

Patients And Methods: Between March 2011 and December 2019, a total of 32 patients (19 males, 13 females; median age: 55.1 years; range, 41 to 59 years) who underwent primary repair for SLAP due to high activity levels and in whom the treatment failed were retrospectively analyzed.

Clinical and radiological results of three different techniques for fixation of the olecranon osteotomy in the surgical treatment of distal humerus fractures: A retrospective comparison of plate-screw, tension band and intramedullary nail.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare clinical and radiological results of three different techniques (plate-screw, tension band, and intramedullary nail) in the fixation of olecranon osteotomy in patients with intercondylar fracture of the distal humerus surgically treated by the olecranon osteotomy approach.

Methods: Between January 2010 and December 2018, the study was initiated with 52 patients who underwent an olecranon osteotomy approach for an AO Type C distal humerus fracture. Thirty-seven patients (19 male, 18 female) who had regular control data and a final control examination were included in the study.

Effects of conservative therapy applied before arthroscopic subacromial decompression on the clinical outcome in patients with stage 2 shoulder impingement syndrome.

Background/aim: To investigate the effects of conservative therapy applied before arthroscopic subacromial decompression on the clinical outcome in patients with stage 2 shoulder impingement syndrome.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-eight patients having stage 2 shoulder impingement syndrome and treated with arthroscopic subacromial decompression were included in the study. We divided these patients into 2 groups, whereby 32 (47%) patients received conservative therapy before arthroscopic subacromial decompression and 36 (53%) patients did not receive conservative therapy.

Extramembranous transfer of the tibialis posterior tendon for the treatment of drop foot deformity in children.

Background: To study the efficacy of extramembranous transfer of the tibialis posterior (posterior tibial) tendon for the treatment of drop foot deformity in children.

Matherials And Methods: This study included 24 patients (11 girls and 13 boys) with drop foot deformity, who underwent tibialis posterior tendon transfer. The mean age was 12.

The Prevalence of Chronic Impingement Syndrome and SLAP Lesion and the Sensitivity of O'Brien's Test.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of SLAP lesions in patients with chronic impingement syndrome. We also examined the sensitivity of O'Brien's test.

Materials And Methods: The study included 48 patients with a preliminary chronic impingement syndrome diagnosis to whom arthroscopic decompression had been planned.

The results of Pemberton's pericapsular osteotomy in patients with developmental hip dysplasia.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the radiological and clinical outcomes of Pemberton's pericapsular osteotomy in toddlers and preschool children with developmental hip dysplasia.

Methods: Ninety-one hips of 86 patients (81 girls, 5 boys) with developmental hip dysplasia who underwent Pemberton's pericapsular osteotomy were included in this study. The mean age of the patients was 34 (range: 18 to 96) months.

The role of acromion morphology in chronic subacromial impingement syndrome.

This study investigated the role of acromion morphology in the aetiology of chronic subacromial impingement syndrome. Forty five patients with chronic subacromial impingement syndrome were included in the study. They were distributed into three groups according to their acromion types: six (13.
