This study aimed to compare radiographic outcomes of open and minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in patients with hallux valgus. We reviewed data of patients with hallux valgus who underwent open or minimally invasive distal chevron osteotomy at our institution. Radiographic assessment was completed p...

Non-invasive techniques are gold standard to redress Severe Neuromuscular Foot Deformity (SNFD). However, simple talectomy may be considered to obtain a stable, plantigrade, pain-free foot. We present a 10-year follow-up accessing radiological correction rates, functional outcomes, complications, an...

This article presents an adaptation of the internal brace ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) repair technique using knotless suture anchors, which shows promise for improved postsurgical functionality and a shortened recovery period in patients with UCL injuries.

Distal biceps ruptures are common injuries that lead to significant decrease in elbow supination strength and pain. This Technical Note describes a single-incision distal biceps tendon repair using 2 knotless suture anchors. This technique is easily reproducible, is efficient, and has the unique ben...

In this Technical Note, we describe an arthroscopic technique for distal suprapectoral biceps tenodesis using a knotless corkscrew anchor that has many advantages, such as being an all-arthroscopic with the ability to retension the tendon after implantation.

Isolated posterior shoulder instability accounts for approximately 10% of shoulder instability cases. Patients may present after an acute trauma or with insidious onset and associated posterior shoulder pain. Knotless and all-suture anchor devices have become increasing popular and are often used in...

Matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) is a 2-step technique designed to treat symptomatic full-thickness articular cartilage defects of the knee. In this technique article, MACI (autologous cultured chondrocytes on porcine collagen membrane) is used to treat a femoral trochlea...

Preoperative frailty in older patients is an important risk factor for both acute and chronic pain after TKA, suggesting that frailty assessment should become a necessary procedure before operation, especially in older patients.

Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) is increasingly used in revision TKA (rTKA), with imageless systems recently receiving Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. However, there remains a paucity of literature on the use of robotic assistance in revision TKA. This paper describes ...

Patients with gluteal tendinopathy had worse 1-year outcomes after posterior THA vs. patients without tendinopathy.
