The popliteal entrapment syndrome is an entity increasingly reported over the past few years. Anatomical variations should be considered if a localized stenosis or occlusion of the popliteal artery is diagnosed in a young, otherwise healthy individual. This case report documents a complicated course of the disease in a young man in whom diagnosis was made only after futile attempts of intraarterial lysis and dilatation at the time of a second operation. A complex crural reconstruction was necessary in order to revascularize the treatment limb.

Comparison of Proximal Tibiofibular Joint Detachment with Tibial-Sided Osteotomy for Fibular Untethering in Lateral Closing-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy: A Cadaveric Study.

Proximal tibiofibular joint detachment (PTFJD) is a fibular untethering procedure during lateral closing-wedge high tibial osteotomy (LCWHTO) for varus knee osteoarthritis. However, the PTFJD procedure is technically demanding, and confirmation of clear joint separation is not straightforward. The aim of this study was to compare the degree of completion and safety of PTFJD versus tibial-sided osteotomy (TSO); this latter procedure is our novel technique for fibular untethering during LCWHTO.

: Despite its advantages, lateral close-wedge high tibial osteotomy (LCWHTO) requires proximal tibiofibular joint detachment (PTFJD) or fibular shaft osteotomy for gap closing. These fibula untethering procedures are technically demanding and not free from the risk of neurovascular injuries. Our novel fibula untethering technique, tibial-sided osteotomy (TSO) near the proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ), aims to reduce technical demands and the risk of injury to the peroneal nerve and popliteal neurovascular structures.

Purpose: To determine modifiable and non-modifiable factors contributing to limb loss in PAI the relevance and accuracy of published scoring systems for PAI within a South African State hospital.
Methodology: Retrospective review of patients (> 18 years) with PAI, presenting to CMJAH trauma unit from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2022.
Results: Sixty-four patient records were analysed.
Development of a clinical and ultrasonic parameter-based nomogram model to predict restenosis after superficial femoral artery stenting.
Ann Vasc Surg
January 2025
Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy, Department of Surgery, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA.
Objectives: Prediction of in-stent restenosis (ISR) is clinically important for patients with peripheral artery disease in their superficial femoral arteries (SFA) who have been treated with stenting. The aim of this study was to construct and validate a predictive model for ISR after SFA stenting based on a series of clinical and ultrasonic parameters.
Methods: This retrospective study included 381 patients who were treated with self-expanding bare nitinol stents in their SFA at our hospital between January 1, 2018, and January 1, 2022.
Adductor Canal Block Combined With IPACK Block for Postoperative Analgesia After Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: There is no consensus on whether adductor canal block (ACB) combined with infiltration between the popliteal artery and capsule of the posterior knee (IPACK) block can further increase analgesia and reduce opioid consumption after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) compared with ACB and periarticular infiltration analgesia (PIA).
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of combining ACB and PACK block on analgesia and functional recovery following TKA.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 386 patients who underwent primary unilateral TKA at our institution from January 2020 to October 2022.
