Background: Accurate repositioning of the femoral head in patients with Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) undergoing Imhäuser osteotomy is very challenging. The objective of this study is to determine if preoperative 3D planning and a 3D-printed surgical guide improve the accuracy of the placement of the femoral head.
Methods: This retrospective study compared outcome parameters of patients who underwent a classic Imhäuser osteotomy from 2009 to 2013 with those who underwent an Imhäuser osteotomy using 3D preoperative planning and 3D-printed surgical guides from 2014 to 2021. The primary endpoint was improvement in Range of Motion (ROM) of the hip. Secondary outcomes were radiographic improvement (Southwick angle), patient-reported clinical outcomes regarding hip and psychosocial complaints assessed with two questionnaires and duration of surgery.
Results: In the 14 patients of the 3D group radiographic improvement was slightly greater and duration of surgery was slightly shorter than in the 7 patients of the classis Imhäuser group. No difference was found in the ROM, and patient reported clinical outcomes were slightly less favourable.
Conclusions: Surprisingly we didn't find a significant difference between the two groups. Further research on the use of 3D planning an 3D-printed surgical guides is needed.
Trial Registration: Approval for this study was obtained of the local ethics committees of both hospitals.

Background: The role of local infiltration anesthesia (LIA) in knee surgery is significant. LIA can be more potent than a nerve block, but without the downsides. A wide range of agents are used for LIA, including some off-label medications such as dexmedetomidine and ropivacaine.

Background: Kirner deformity is a rare anomaly of the little finger in adolescents, characterized by a deformity of the distal phalanx and a radiologically L-shaped epiphysis, along with palmar and radial angulation of the distal phalanx. Due to the rarity of these pathological findings, there are no systematic literature reviews available. This work serves as an overview of the clinical presentation, frequency and age distributions, as well as possible conservative and surgical treatment options.

This reported case represents the first well-documented mandibular surgical ciliated cyst, following orthognathic surgery consisting of a combination of Le Fort I bimaxillary and sagittal osteotomy concomitantly with genioplasty, reported in a Brazilian patient. A case of 43-year-old female presenting a mandibular surgical ciliated cyst after 16 years of an orthognathic surgery, consisting of a combination of Le Fort I osteotomy and genioplasty, is reported. The cystic lesion was enucleated, and the histopathological analysis showed a cystic cavity lined by pseudostratified columnar respiratory-type epithelium presenting ciliated and mucous cells supported by fibrous connective tissue without inflammation.

Importance: Patients with arthritis and ruptured cruciate ligaments typically require surgery. Following surgery, it is necessary to improve joint function in early stage.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of intraoperative intra-articular injection of the ELHLD peptide (L-glutamyl-L-leucyl-L-histidyl-L-leucyl-L-aspartic acid) on postoperative stifle function in patients with medial patella luxation grade 3 and osteoarthritis grade 2 undergoing tibial plateau leveling osteotomy due to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture.
