ABSTRACT Background Phantom limb pain (PLP) affects 64% of individuals who have undergone amputation. Various theories explain its development, leading to different treatments, including graded motor imagery. This study analyses the effectiveness of a home‐based intervention protocol based on graded motor imagery (GraMI protocol) as a treatment for ...

Surgical site infections and sepsis in gynecological surgery
Abstract Despite advancements in infection control, surgical site infections (SSIs) and postoperative sepsis remain significant challenges in gynecological surgery, contributing to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. In low‐income countries, circulatory failure due to septic shock leads to most deaths after surgery, with sepsis ...

ABSTRACT Despite the high success rates of total joint arthroplasty procedures, including total knee and hip replacements, implant failures still occur. This study investigated a potential, yet underrecognized, cause of implant failure: unintentional damage from the contact of electrosurgical blades with metal implant alloys.

Abstract Purpose Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a widely used treatment for isolated compartmental knee osteoarthritis, especially in younger and more active patients. Return to sport (RTS) has become a key postoperative outcome. While RTS after UKA is generally favourable, the influence of factors such as implant design, surgical ...

Abstract Purpose Medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) disrupt the hoop stress mechanism, leading to increased meniscal extrusion and early osteoarthritis. This systematic review aims to evaluate current surgical techniques for MMPRT repair, including their biomechanical principles, technical aspects and clinical outcomes, with special ...

Abstract Purpose The uncemented posterior‐stabilized total knee arthroplasty (PS‐TKA) gained increasing acceptance as younger and active patients have higher requirements for the lifespan and functionality of prostheses, because their frequent gait and deep‐flexion activities may amplify tibial implant–bone interface micromotion and increase the risk ...

Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the treatment and preventive effects, as well as the safety, of dual‐antibiotic bone cement (DABC; gentamicin + vancomycin) in revision total knee arthroplasty (RTKA) in high‐risk patients. Methods This retrospective observational study included patients who underwent RTKA for septic or aseptic indications ...

Abstract Purpose The Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) classification enables phenotype‐based total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but its application in robotic‐assisted TKA (RATKA) remains underexplored. We aim to describe the distribution of CPAK phenotypes in patients undergoing RATKA using a restricted kinematic alignment (rKA) protocol ...

Abstract Purpose Obesity is often considered a relative contraindication to total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to presumed increased perioperative and postoperative risk. Consequently, obese patients are often advised to lose weight prior to THA. However, the effect of preoperative weight loss on THA outcomes remains uncertain.
