There are limited studies in the literature regarding the reconstruction of bilateral anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in a single-stage setting. However, there have been no published studies describing simultaneous revision reconstructions of previously reconstructed bilateral ACLs. We present the case of a 37-year-old male who underwent previous reconstruction of both ACLs at an outside hospital and presented to our outpatient clinic with instability and pain. Simultaneous bilateral ACL revision reconstruction was performed with the use of tibialis anterior allografts. This case report suggests that single-stage bilateral ACL revision reconstruction is a safe procedure that can provide good results for the patient.

Objective: Repositioning and fixation of the posterior septal angle (PSA) relative to the anterior nasal spine (ANS) is a well-known maneuver performed during rhinoplasty. Suture techniques through the periosteum along with transosseous drilling through the spine are the two most common fixation methods. We report on how nasal airway patency varies as a function of technique and patient demographic factors.

Metal-backed versus all-poly tibia in the original cartier unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: outcomes and survivorship at long-term follow-up.

Arch Orthop Trauma Surg

December 2024

Sezione di Chirurgia Protesica ad Indirizzo Robotico Unità di Traumatologia dello Sport, Fondazione Poliambulanza Istituto Ospedaliero, Brescia, Italy.

Purpose: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a viable option for localized osteoarthritis (OA) or avascular osteonecrosis with several advantages over total knee arthroplasty (TKA). UKA implants may feature a tibial component either all-polyethylene (AP) or metal-backed (MB). This study aims to retrospectively compare the clinical outcomes and survivorship of 74 UKAs over 16 years, focusing on comparing the results and survivorship of MB versus AP tibial tray.

Center for Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, Charité-University Medicine Berlin, 10117 Berlin, Germany.

There remains considerable debate regarding the optimal management of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in skeletally immature patients. This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of transphyseal ACL reconstruction in patients with open growth plates. This retrospective study included skeletally immature patients with full-thickness ACL tears and confirmed open physis.

Eur Burn J

December 2024

Department of Surgery, University of Michigan, 2101 Taubman Center, 1500 E. Medical Center Drive, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.

Background: Burn injuries can require hospitalization, operations, and long-term reconstruction. Burn-injured patients can experience short- or long-term disability. We investigated lost workdays (LWDs), short-term disability (STD), and long-term disability (LTD) in the 12-month period following a burn injury.
