Surgical Duration Increases the Risk of Infection Following Total Knee Arthroplasty

Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics
Introduction: Risk stratification is used in total joint arthroplasty (TKA) to optimize outcomes and minimize complications. Modifiable risk factors such as surgical duration can be influenced by surgeons; however, under certain circumstances, prolonged ...

Poor hospital infection control practice in venepuncture and use of tourniquets

, 2001
Previous studies have indicated that tourniquets may act as reservoirs of pathogenic organisms and could therefore pose a risk to patients through cross-infection.

The “McFL‐LARS” Hybrid Technique: Fascia Lata Autograft and Synthetic Reinforcement for Combined Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using fascia lata autograft is a validated technique but remains limited by graft diameter or by the need to harvest a hamstring tendon. This report describes a novel hybrid approach, the “McFL‐LARS” hybrid technique, combining fascia lata autograft with a ligament advanced reinforcement system ...

Damage Control for Vascular Trauma from the Prehospital to the Operating Room Setting

Frontiers in Surgery, 2017
Early management of vascular injury, starting at the field, is imperative for survival no less than any operative maneuver. Contemporary prehospital management of vascular trauma, including appropriate fluid and volume infusion, tourniquets, and ...

Arthroscopic Autologous Minced Cartilage Implantation for Subchondral Insufficiency Fracture of the Knee

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Subchondral insufficiency fracture of the knee, previously known as spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee, commonly affects the medial femoral condyle and may progress to subchondral collapse and eventually osteoarthritis. Joint‐preserving options for focal medial femoral condyle lesions remain limited, particularly in middle‐aged patients ...

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction With a Single Femoral Tunnel Using Rectus Femoris and Semitendinosus Autografts

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a reproducible, anatomically based technique for combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterolateral corner reconstruction using a single femoral tunnel and 2 autografts: rectus femoris and semitendinosus. Part of the rectus femoris and semitendinosus grafts is prepared for anatomic ACL reconstruction, and a shared femoral

Rectus Femoris Autograft Harvesting: Tips and Tricks

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The rectus femoris tendon has recently emerged as a potential graft option for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction because of its favorable biomechanical properties, substantial graft length, and minimally invasive harvest characteristics.

Hybrid Protective Sentinel System: A Combined Technique for Safe and Controlled Open‐Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Open‐wedge high tibial osteotomy is an effective joint‐preserving surgery for medial compartment osteoarthritis but remains associated with 3 major intraoperative hazards: posterior neurovascular injury, lateral hinge fracture, and unintended slope modification.

Medial Patellar Retinaculum Cable Replacement of Medial Quadriceps Tendon‐Femoral Ligament Combined With Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction in Treatment of Recurrent Patellar Dislocation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a mainstream surgical approach for treating recurrent patellar dislocation. In recent years, double‐bundle reconstruction, for example, combined reconstruction of MPFL and the medial quadriceps tendon‐femoral ligament, has been applied and shown favorable outcomes in the treatment of ...
