A finite element strategy applied to intramedullary nailing of the proximal femur [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel University.An intramedullary nail is a trauma treatment device used for fracture fixation of long bones. These devices are subject to failure, including lag screw

Biomechanical in Vitro Validation of Intramedullary Cortical Button Fixation for Distal Biceps Tendon Repair

open access: yes, 2011
Background Extramedullary cortical button–based fixation for distal biceps tendon ruptures exhibits maximum load to failure in vitro but cannot restore the anatomic footprint and has the potential risk for injury to the posterior interosseous nerve ...

Elective Surgical Care Pathways Are Associated With Lower Fracture Rates at Presentation and Contribute to Superior Clinical Outcomes in Metastatic Bone Disease

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Metastatic bone disease (MBD) often necessitates orthopaedic surgical intervention, which occurs through either emergent or elective care pathways. This study compared post‐operative outcomes between patients undergoing elective versus emergent surgery for MBD involving the pelvis and appendicular skeleton. Methods We

Unrestricted kinematic alignment on the sagittal plane: Posterior tibial slope and combined flexion do not have boundaries to respect in terms of short‐term clinical outcomes and safety

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is gaining traction as a surgical philosophy. True personalization, however, must encompass not only the coronal plane but also the sagittal and axial planes. This study evaluates influence of the Tibial Slope (PTS) and combined flexion (CF) on outcomes in TKA performed using ...

Navicular and fifth metatarsal base stress fractures: An illustrated anatomical review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract The navicular bone and the proximal fifth metatarsal (M5) play a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity and biomechanical stability of the foot's medial and lateral columns, respectively. Both bones' unique anatomical configuration, intricate mechanical environment and limited vascular supply make specific locations particularly ...

Comparison of plate fixation and intramedullary Küntscher nailing in the treatment of fractures of femur diaphysis in adults

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2021
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and to discuss the results of femur fractures treated with plate fixation and intramedullary Küntscher nailing. Between July 1991 and February 1997 we operated 75 patients having femur fractures.

Reduced length of stay and improved perioperative outcomes in robotic‐arm‐assisted TKA: A real‐world evidence study of 63,931 cases from German hospitals

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic‐arm‐assisted surgery is increasingly used in orthopaedics due to its potential clinical benefits. This real‐world data analysis evaluated the impact of image‐based, robotic‐arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA) over non‐robotic‐arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (nraTKA) on perioperative outcomes in Germany based on a ...

Intramedullary screw fixation for simple displaced olecranon fractures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
PURPOSE: Olecranon fractures are common and typically require surgical fixation due to displacement generated by the pull of the triceps muscle. The most common techniques for repairing olecranon fractures are tension-band wiring or plate fixation, but ...

Biomechanical Comparison of First Tarsometatarsal Arthrodesis Constructs Over Prolonged Cyclic Testing

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2019
Background: Traditionally, a lengthy period of nonweightbearing is required following arthrodesis of the first tarsometatarsal (TMT) joint in order to provide a stable healing environment for the bones.

Pediatric spinal ependymomas: Long‐term surgical outcomes in a cohort of 61 cases

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Spinal ependymomas are rare in children, with limited long‐term outcome data. In this retrospective study of 61 pediatric patients undergoing surgical resection, gross total resection was achieved in 62.3% and was associated with favorable functional improvement. Recurrence was observed in 31.1% of cases.
