Can an Anatomical ACL Reconstruction be Performed with Two Standart Portals?
Objectives: Recent studies have demonstrated that ACL reconstruction via anatomic tunnel placement would provide superior stability. In order to achieve an anatomic femoral tunnel, accessory anteromedial portal (three-portal tecnique) and medial Hoffa ...

The use of 3D surface analysis techniques to investigate the wear of matt surface finish femoral stems in total hip replacement [PDF]
Total hip replacement is one of the most common surgical procedures carried out both in the UK and Worldwide. With an increasing number of younger patients undergoing the procedure, there is an emphasis on increasing the longevity of prostheses.

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 2: the influence of prosthesis stem design on remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck [PDF]
Hip resurfacing is a popular treatment for osteoarthritis in young, active patients. Previous studies have shown that occasional failures – femoral neck fracture and implant loosening, possibly associated with bone adaptation – are affected by prosthesis

Is Preoperative Anthropometric Data Assessment Reliable Indicator for Estimating Femoral Tunnel Length in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction? [PDF]
Introduction: Correct length of the femoral tunnel is required for adequate length of graft inside the femoral canal. Length of femoral tunnel depends on mass, height, dimensions of lateral femoral condyle and amount of flexion of knee intraoperatively ...
