Asporin and knee osteoarthritis in patients of Greek origin
Kaliakatsos, M.; Tzetis, M.; Kanavakis, E.; Fytili, P.; Chouliaras, G.; Karachalios, T.; Malizos, K.; Tsezou, A. (2006)Ostearthritis (OA) is characterized by focal areas of loss of the articular cartilage in synovial joints, associated with varying degrees of osteophyte formation, subchondral bone change and synovitis. The Asporin (ASPN) ... -
Assessment of a failed (Painful?) total joint arthroplasty
Karachalios, T.; Michalitsis, S.; Veloni, A. (2014)Total joint arthroplasty (TJA) has provided, to patients with end stage major joint arthritis, reliable painless range of movement and functional recovery which can last for more than 15 years [1]. However, the majority ... -
