Published: October 2007

Chronic vague hip pain may be caused by stress-related injury in the proximal or mid-femoral diaphysis. This has been described as an entity called adductor insertion avulsion syndrome, or thigh splints. In the appropriate clinical setting, the radiologist interpreting the magnetic resonance imaging must be aware of this condition as its imaging findings are subtle. The diagnosis will help the clinician plan the appropriate management. Magnetic resonance imaging can also depict the complications such as stress fracture.

The Effect of Remimazolam on the Baseline TOF Ratio: A Prospective, Clinical Study.

Anesthesiol Res Pract

November 2024

Department of Anesthesiology, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kumamoto University Hospital, Kumamoto University, 1-1-1, Honjyo, Cyuoku, Kumamoto-City 860-8556, Kumamoto, Japan.

Remimazolam is a newly developed benzodiazepine. Early recovery from anesthesia because of its ultra-short acting effect and less hemodynamic side effects has been reported as the specific advantages of remimazolam. Therefore, the maintenance of anesthesia with propofol may be sometimes switched to remimazolam anesthesia maintenance during surgery because of the risk of delayed awakening and unstable hemodynamics.

Athletes With Adductor-Related Groin Pain: A Narrative Review.

Cureus

September 2024

Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Unidade Local de Saúde de Gaia/Espinho, Vila Nova de Gaia, PRT.

Article Synopsis
  • Adductor-related groin pain is a common issue for athletes, but there's a lack of agreement on its classification, anatomy, and treatment methods.
  • A detailed literature review explores the Doha agreement classification, the complexity of the adductor longus insertion, and theories behind tendon pathology, which can help inform prevention and treatment strategies.
  • The review emphasizes the importance of active rehabilitation, specific injury prevention programs, and discusses treatment options like enthesis injections and tenotomy, including the differences between selective and complete procedures.

Background: Early postoperative pain following total knee arthroplasty remains challenging. We devised a technique for inserting a continuous catheter intraoperatively in the adductor canal and aimed to compare its efficacy and safety with that of an ultrasound-guided anesthetist-administered continuous catheter.

Methods: This single-center, single-surgeon, prospective, interventional, randomized controlled trial included 330 patients, who were randomized into two groups with similar preoperative status and demographics.
