Peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implantitis, affect up to 47% of dental implant recipients, primarily due to biofilm formation. Current decontamination methods vary in efficacy, prompting interest in polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) for their antimicrobial and protein-specific cleaning properties. This study evaluated the efficacy of polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) in decontaminating titanium dental implants by removing proteinaceous pellicle layers and resisting recontamination.

Background: This video article describes the use of bone-anchored prostheses for patients with transtibial amputations, most often resulting from trauma, infection, or dysvascular disease. Large studies have shown that about half of all patients with a socket-suspended artificial limb experience limited mobility and limited prosthesis use because of socket-related problems. These problems occur at the socket-residual limb interface as a result of a painful and unstable connection, leading to an asymmetrical gait and subsequent pelvic and back pain.

The deltoid ligament (medial collateral ligament) and the syndesmosis (a composite ligamentous structure at the distal tibiofibular junction) are critical for maintaining ankle stability. In cases of high-energy ankle fractures, these structures are often injured simultaneously, leading to instability and potential long-term complications such as post-traumatic arthritis. This review aims to explore advancements in minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of combined deltoid ligament and syndesmosis injuries, with a focus on optimizing surgical outcomes and reducing patient morbidity.
