Infection-free rates and Sequelae predict factors in bone transportation for infected tibia: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2018
Background Tibia infected nonunion and chronic osteomyelitis are challenging clinical presentations. Bone transportation with external or hybrid fixators (combined external and internal fixators) is versatile to solve these problems.

Posterior tibial slope is linearly related to anteroposterior shift of the tibiofemoral contact mechanics: A biomechanical study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the changes in tibiofemoral contact mechanics following an infra‐tubercle slope‐modifying osteotomy. Methods An infra‐tubercle slope‐modifying osteotomy was performed on eight fresh‐frozen cadaveric knees and fixed with an external fixator, which allowed for accurate slope adjustments from 15° to 0° in 5° increments.
