Replantation of the Lower Extremity

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1983
Traumatic amputation of the lower extremity is not uncommon when compared with that of the upper extremity. However, fewer cases of lower extremity replantation have been reported. One of the possible reasons for this is that few severed lower limbs were feasible for replantation because of severe trauma.

Minimum Clinically Important Difference: Current Trends in the Orthopaedic Literature, Part II Lower Extremity A Systematic Review

JBJS Reviews, 2018
Background: The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) attempts to define the patient’s experience of treatment outcomes. Efforts at calculating the MCID have yielded multiple and inconsistent MCID values.

PHLEBOGRAPHY OF THE LOWER EXTREMITY

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1960
The method of deep-vein phlebography here described has been applied in 251 extremities of 159 patients over a period of two and one-half years. The results have often been decisive in planning treatment because of the importance of distinguishing between incompetence and thrombosis of the deep veins. The films to be exposed must be 86 cm.

Neurilemoma of the Lower Extremity

Foot & Ankle, 1986
A series of 76 patients with 85 neurilemomas of the lower extremity was reviewed. The tumors were located throughout the lower extremity and had varied clinical presentations, which often posed problems in diagnosis. Pain, however, was a consistent symptom, and 63 (83%) of the patients presented with local or radiating (or both) pain. Electromyography

AbstractThe Octoson, an automated, water‐delay ultrasonic scanner, that provides excellent demonstration of the normal anatomy of subcutaneous tissues, muscles, and blood vessels, was used to evaluate the lower extremities of 25 patients. A variety of pathologic conditions were demonstrated, including popliteal cysts, hematomas, an abscess, and an ...

Lower Extremity Replantation

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1991
Replantation of the traumatically amputated lower extremity is a technically feasible surgical undertaking. Successful outcome must be judged by functional achievements of the patient toward returning to the preinjury level. Appropriate patient selection significantly increases the potential for obtaining a satisfactory outcome.

Lower extremity reconstruction

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2006
AbstractThe current recommendation for surgical treatment of tumors of the lower extremity is a limb‐sparing resection. Limb‐sparing resection coupled with complex reconstructive techniques and complemented by new chemotherapeutic agents and adjuvant radiation therapy has allowed us to achieve survival rates that are comparable to those of amputation ...

Angioleiomyoma of the lower extremity

Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association, 1997
Angioleiomyomas are benign soft tissue lesions that should be included in the differential diagnosis of any pedal soft tissue mass. There should be an increased index of suspicion for angioleiomyoma, especially when a freely movable subcutaneous mass is encountered in a middle-aged female patient.
