A 2-year prospective study of patient-relevant outcomes in patients operated on for knee osteoarthritis with tibial osteotomy [PDF]
Background Tibial osteotomy is a treatment for younger and/or physically active patients suffering from uni-compartmental knee osteoarthritis. The open wedge osteotomy by the hemicallotasis technique includes the use of external fixation.

Histomorphometric study of growth plate subjected to different mechanical conditions (compression, tension and neutralization): an experimental study in lambs. Mechanical growth plate behavior [PDF]
We studied the morphologic effect of low mechanical stresses (compression, tension and neutralization) on the growth cartilage with an external fixator in 18 young lambs. On radiography, we only found more length in the femora subjected to tension (P < 0.

Autonomization of Microvascular Free Flaps in Reconstructive Surgery: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background Microvascular free tissue transfer is a key technique in reconstructive surgery, enabling functional and aesthetic restoration of complex defects. While initial flap survival relies on the vascular pedicle, some flaps may become independent through a process known as autonomization, where new vascular connections form between the ...
