Utility of the Clinical Frailty Scale, Charlson Comorbidity Index and ACS NSQIP Surgical Risk Calculator in major lower limb orthopaedic surgery

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background With major lower limb orthopaedic surgery performed in increasingly older and comorbid patients, accurate risk prediction is essential to guide perioperative management and shared decision‐making. Aims To compare the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the American College of Surgeons National Surgical

Creating Perforations in the Sclerotic Region of the Proximal Tibia During Total Knee Arthroplasty to Enhance Prosthesis Stability

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1397-1405, May 2025.
Abnormal stress in the proximal tibia modifies the bone mineral density distribution pattern, and drilling in the sclerotic region during total knee arthroplasty is correlated with enhanced prosthesis stability. ABSTRACT Objective In patients with varus deformity of the knee, the redistribution of the subchondral bone mineral density (BMD) of the tibia

Customized Metal 3D Printed Total Wrist Prosthesis in the Treatment of Severely Destroyed Wrist: Design Rationale and Clinical Applications

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1536-1546, May 2025.
Four patients with severe wrist destruction from various causes were treated with customized 3D‐printed prostheses. In addition to the specific articular surface matching their original radiocarpal joint, two innovative proximal component designs were created to address different bone defects.

Body Mass Index Modifies the Effect of Hemovac Drainage on Blood Loss After Total Knee Arthroplasty

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
In tranexamic acid–treated primary total knee arthroplasty, estimated blood loss increased with rising BMI when no drain was used but remained stable across the BMI range with Hemovac drainage. These findings support a BMI‐based, selective use of drains rather than routine placement.

Rethinking Knee Arthroplasty: Bicompartmental Unicompartmental Knee Arthroplasty as a Biomechanically Personalized, Function‐Preserving Solution for Knee Osteoarthritis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
A comparative study of bicompartmental unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (bi‐UKA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in patients with bicompartmental osteoarthritis. The image illustrates key anatomical differences in implant design, outlines the study population (bi‐UKA: n = 35, TKA: n = 45), and highlights functional evaluation metrics including the ...
