Analysis of Bone Fixation Methods in Digital Replantation
Background Adequate fixation of replanted digits is essential not only for short-term healing but for long-term function. Various bony fixation methods using Kirschner (K-) and intraosseous wire are available in replantation.

Endoscopic Retrofibular Groove Deepening and Resection of a Low-Lying Muscle of the Peroneus Brevis for the Management of Intrasheath Subluxation of Peroneal Tendons Associated With a Low-Lying Peroneus Brevis Muscle. [PDF]
Abstract A constricted retrofibular fibro‐osseous tunnel is the cause of intrasheath peroneal tendon subluxation. If it is because of a combination of an abnormal convex or flat retrofibular groove and the presence of a space‐occupying low‐lying muscle belly, endoscopic groove deepening and resection of a low‐lying muscle is a reasonable surgical ...

The Development of a Novel Bone Filler, Titanium Wire Ball.
In designing bone fillers, hardness has heretofore not been a major concern. Fillers are typically very hard and thus often accelerate the collapse of the adjacent bones. We developed a novel, relatively soft bone filler, whose hardness is similar to the human cancellous bone.

Muscle Control of an Extra Robotic Digit
This study compares muscle‐ and movement‐based control for operating a supernumerary robotic thumb. While movement control performs better in the proposed tasks, muscle‐based (EMG) control promotes broader motor learning. The results highlight the promise and challenges of using biosignals for human augmentation, offering new insights into intuitive ...

Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications
Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...
