Open Ankle Arthrodesis A Retrospective Analysis Comparing Different Fixation Methods
A wide variation of surgical options, complications, and union rates are reported in the treatment of end-stage ankle arthritis. However, open ankle arthrodesis remains the golden standard for ankle arthritis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate theOn : 25-Mar-2022- Source : The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery -
Biomechanical Comparison of Elbow Stability Constructs
Despite surgical stabilization of complex elbow trauma, additional fixation to maintain joint congruity and stability may be required. Multiple biomechanical constructs include static external fixator (SEF), hinged external fixator (HEF), Internal Joint SOn : 25-Mar-2022- Source : JSES -
Return to play after UCL reconstruction with concurrent posterior compartment decompression
Medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries and posterior elbow impingement commonly effect throwing athletes. Surgical intervention for each of these pathologies individually has been demonstrated to be successful with high return to play rates. OurOn : 25-Mar-2022- Source : JSES -
Hamstring autograft reconstruction treats anterior sternoclavicular joint instability
Sternoclavicular joint injury is rare and accounts for about 3% of all shoulder girdle injuries. Due to the strong support of the surrounding ligamentous structures, dislocation requires a large force.On : 25-Mar-2022- Source : Healio -
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty for rotator cuff tears with and without prior failed rotator cuff repair A largescale comparative analysis
Large-scale data assessing the effect of a prior failed rotator cuff repair (RCR) on the outcome of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is currently lacking. Therefore, this study aimed (1) to assess the course of patients undergoing RCR, specifically focOn : 25-Mar-2022- Source : Journal of Orthopaedics -
