Case: We present the case of a 92-year-old woman who developed a medial femoral circumflex artery (MFCA) pseudoaneurysm intraoperatively while obtaining reduction during intramedullary nailing (IMN) for intertrochanteric fracture.
Conclusions: Pseudoaneurysms are rare vascular complications in hip fracture surgery. Early recognition of signs and symptoms of this phenomenon are essential for diagnosis and treatment. Close post-operative monitoring and serial hemoglobin should be considered for unexplained intra-operative bleeding. A low threshold for angiography should be entertained if active bleeding and clinical decompensation occur during instrumented percutaneous pertrochanteric fracture reduction. This patient underwent conventional angiography with successful coil embolization and exclusion of the MFCA pseudoaneurysm.

Radial Tear of the Midbody in Complete Discoid Lateral Meniscus: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Orthopedic Sports Medicine, Seifu Hospital, Sakai, JPN.
To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports on the results of the repair of radial tears of the midbody of the complete discoid lateral meniscus (DLM). A 14-year-old female underwent meniscal replacement with autologous tendon transplantation for early re-tear after repair of the radial tear in the midbody of complete DLM. Two years after the tendon transplantation, there was no effusion or swelling, and the patient was able to exercise completely without symptoms.

Purpose: Previous studies reported that anterior knee pain (AKP) occurs with an incidence of 32% after opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO). However, the biomechanical effects of this procedure on patellofemoral joints (PFJs) remain unclear. We aimed to quantify the changes in the kinematics and cartilage conditions of the PFJ during stair climbing before and after OWHTO.

Background: The effect of axial rotation between the femoral neck and ankle joint (total rotation [TR]) on normal knees is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the TR effect on normal knee kinematics.
Methods: Volunteers were divided into groups large (L), intermediate (I), and small (S), using hierarchical cluster analysis based on TR in the standing position.
Navigated instrumentation and ligament tensioning device enhances initial gap acquisition during total knee arthroplasty procedure: A cadaveric study.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Trauma University Center of Montpellier, University of Montpellier Montpellier France.
Purpose: Gap-balanced total knee arthroplasty (TKA) technique relies on initial ligament evaluation, particularly in patient-specific implantation using computer-assisted technologies. This cadaveric study aimed to compare the reproducibility and reliability of medial and lateral gap measurements between manual stress testing and dynamic ligament balancer.
Methods: Initial gap acquisitions were assessed from eight cadaveric knees (four specimens) during the same navigated TKA procedure by five differently skilled surgeons (three seniors and two juniors).
Novel application of an imageless robotic system in simultaneous unicompartmental knee arthroplasty and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

This technical note explores the novel use of an imageless robotic surgical system for simultaneous unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Knee osteoarthritis (OA) and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency are common conditions that traditionally require separate management. The integration of robotic assistance offers enhanced precision in surgical procedures, addressing both medial compartment OA and ACL insufficiency in a single operation.
