Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet Forearm Triple Tendon Transfer in Radial Nerve Palsy

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2020
Summary:. Tendon transfer for radial nerve palsy is a common procedure done under general anesthesia. We describe a surgical technique of triple tendon transfer with wide awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT). We transfer flexor carpi radialis to

Recapitulating Endochondral Ossification for Bone Repair: From Development to Engineering Strategy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the developmental basis of endochondral ossification (ECO) and its applications in bone tissue engineering (BTE). It first outlines the key biological processes and signaling pathways underlying ECO, then discusses biomaterial‐based engineering strategies derived from these principles, and finally highlights future directions for

Comparative study of flexor hallucis longus vs. peroneus brevis tendon transfer for chronic Achilles rupture

Journal of Orthopaedic Reports
Background: The Achilles tendon (TA) is the human body's strongest tendon, and it ruptures most frequently in the lower extremities. Various reconstructive techniques, such as flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer and peroneus brevis (PB) transfer,

A three-dimensional finite element model of maximal grip loading in the human wrist [PDF]

, 2009
The aim of this work was to create an anatomically accurate three-dimensional finite element model of the wrist, applying subject-specific loading and quantifying the internal load transfer through the joint during maximal grip.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

The Role of Tibialis Posterior Tendon Transfer in Correction of Foot Drop Deformity

مجله كليه طب الكندي, 2013
Bac kground: The transfer of the tibialis posterior tendon to the anterior aspect of the ankle not only replaces the function of the paralyzed muscles, but also removes the deforming force on the medial aspect of the foot. Objec t i ves : In this study,

Anatomic approach to muscle tendon transfers of the shoulder for posterosuperior and anterosuperior rotator cuff deficiency

Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation
: Muscle tendon transfers (MTTs) attempt to reconstruct muscular deficiencies by replicating force and line of pull. In the glenohumeral joint, MTTs attempt to replicate the force couple of deficient rotator cuff musculature, providing balance to the ...

Thermo-mechanical compatibility of CFRP versus steel reinforcement for concrete at high temperature [PDF]

, 2014
Optimization of the design of concrete structures has become a driver for the use of nonconventional reinforcing materials. One example of this is the emerging use of non-corrosive, highstrength, and lightweight carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP ...
