The present study reports the outcomes of revision surgery using a Cincinnati incision with tendon debridement and calcaneoplasty for insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT) in a cohort of patients at 24-month follow-up. Patients undergoing revision surgery following failed previous surgery for IAT were prospectively recruited. Patients were assessed pre-operatively and at 3, 6,12 and 24 months. The Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment Scale for Achilles Tendinopathy (VISA-A), the EQ5D questionnaire and the visual analogue scale (VAS) were used for evaluation. Data from 33 patients with a mean age of 43.9 years old are reported. 27% (9 of 33 patients) were female. The left side was involved in 58% (19/33) of patients. No clinically relevant complications were reported in any of the patients. Most of subscales of EQ5D improved at last follow-up: Usual Activities (P = 0.01), Mobility (P = 0.03), Pain/Discomfort (P = 0.001), Thermometer (P = 0.04). No statistically significant change for the subscales Self-Care (P = 0.08) and Anxiety-Depression (P = 0.1) was evidenced. The VISA-A score improved significantly at last follow-up (P < 0.0001), as did the VAS score (P < 0.0001). These results indicated that a Cincinnati incision followed by tendon debridement and calcaneoplasty for revision surgery for IAT is feasible and reliable, achieving clinically relevant improvement in the VISA-A, EQ5D and VAS at 24 months follow-up.

Background: Intraoperative ultrasound-guided breast-conserving surgery guarantees real-time direct visualization of tumor and resection margins. We compared surgical, oncologic, and cosmetic outcomes between intraoperative ultrasound-guided breast-conserving surgery and traditional (palpation- or wire-guided) surgery across all breast cancer lesion types.
Methods: This prospective observational cohort study was conducted at the Veneto Institute of Oncology between January 2021 and October 2022.
Reoperations as an Outcome Indicator for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip Treated at Walking Age.

Background: Reoperation is a major adverse event following surgical treatment but has yet to be used as a primary outcome measure in population studies to assess current treatments for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The purpose of the present study was to explore the risk factors associated with reoperations following procedures under anesthesia ("operations") for DDH in patients between the ages of 1 and 3.00 years, with the goal of deriving treatment recommendations.

Background: The relative advantages and disadvantages of 2-stage versus 1-stage management of infection following total hip arthroplasty (THA) are the current subject of intense debate. To understand the merits of each approach, detailed information on the short and, importantly, longer-term outcomes of each must be known. The purpose of the present study was to assess the long-term results of 2-stage exchange arthroplasty following THA in one of the largest series to date.
