Background: Autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) is an option to treat large osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs), accompanying subchondral cyst, and previous unsuccessful bone marrow stimulation (BMS) procedures. Although there is extensive literature on the outcomes of surgical interventions for medial osteochondral lesions, research focusing on lateral lesions remains limited. This article presents the intermediate-term clinical and radiologic outcomes following AOT for lateral OLTs.

Objective: Infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and places patients at risk for subsequent peripheral vascular emboli. Our goals were to analyze the incidence of peripheral emboli and their associated complications and outcomes.
Methods: A retrospective single-center review of all patients with IE from 2013-2021 was performed.

Objectives: We have previously shown that ultrasound-guided repair results in an accurate anchor placement and restores ankle joint stability using cadaveric models. The objective is to assess the safety and clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided ATFL repair with or without augmentation.
Methods: Forty-nine patients with chronic lateral ankle instability underwent ultrasound-guided ATFL repair with or without augmentation.

: Amyloidosis is a disorder characterized by the abnormal folding of proteins, forming insoluble fibrils that accumulate in tissues and organs. This accumulation disrupts normal tissue architecture and organ function, often with serious consequences, including death if left untreated. Light-chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary transthyretin-type amyloidosis (hATTR) are two of the most common types.

Chronic exertional compartment syndrome is a well-described potential cause of leg pain in high-level athletes and soldiers. Surgical treatment of chronic exertional compartment syndrome usually involves fasciotomy, with a reported rate of complications of up to 16%, including failure of complete compartmental release and delayed return to normal daily activity, which can take up to 6 to 12 weeks. The use of a minimally invasive approach under ultrasound guidance seems to improve clinical outcomes in young active patients.
