Supine Traction vs Fulcrum Bending Radiographs in Preoperative Imaging of Scoliosis Patients Treated With Magnetically Controlled Growing Rods (MCGR) - which Technique is Better to Predict Surgical Correction of the Main Curve?
Global Spine J
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedics, University Clinic Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany.
Study Design: Retrospective Cohort Study.
Objectives: Flexibility radiographs such as traction or bending radiographs are essential in preoperative imaging to assess for curve flexibility and to estimate the amount of operative correction in order to determine the type and length of instrumentation in growth-accompanying scoliosis treatment. Both traction and bending radiographs are controversially discussed in the literature.
Complete Abdominal Evisceration After Open Hysterectomy: A Case Report and Evidence-Based Review.

Despite its low incidence, complete postoperative abdominal evisceration represents a complication requiring an urgent solution. We aimed to present a rare case of an abdominal evisceration of the omentum and small-bowel loops after a total abdominal hysterectomy and review the literature regarding this condition's diagnosis and therapeutic management. On the sixth postoperative day for a uterine fibroid, a 68-year-old patient presented with an abdominal evisceration of the omentum and small bowel that occurred two hours before.

Severe early-onset scoliosis (EOS) can be addressed by different growth-friendly approaches, although the indications of each technique remain controversial. The aim of this study was to compare, in a large series of patients, the potential and limitations of the different distraction-based surgical techniques to establish the most suitable surgical approach to treat EOS. We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study evaluating 62 EOS cases treated between January 2002 and December 2021 with a traditional growing rod (TGR), a magnetically controlled growing rod (MCGR) and vertical expandable prosthesis titanium ribs (VEPTR) at IRCSS Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli, Bologna, Italy.

Involutional lower eyelid ectropion is a common disorder of the elderly population. Several surgical approaches have been described in the literature to address the multifactorial nature of this condition, each targeting different factors contributing to its development. Nevertheless, no single procedure has proven to be superior to the others.

Determining whether preoperative performance-based knee function predicts postoperative performance-based knee function and whether patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) completed by participants can detect these changes could significantly enhance the planning of postoperative rehabilitation for patients following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study aims to collect data on performance-based knee function using inertial measurement units (IMUs) worn by participants both preoperatively and postoperatively. PROMs will be completed by the patients before and after surgery to assess their ability to detect the same changes in performance-based knee function measured by the sensors.
