Scaphoid nonunions: Management with vascularized bone grafts from the distal radius: A clinical and functional outcome study
(2007)
Background: Scaphoid nonunions remain controversial with regard to optimal management, especially for those located at the proximal third. In this study, the authors aim to assess the union rate, avascular proximal pole ...
Longstanding nonunions of scaphoid fractures with bone loss: Successful reconstruction with vascularized bone grafts
(2001)
Vascularized bone graft from the dorsum of distal radius was used to treat 22 nonunions of scaphoid fractures, with a mean delay of 4 years from the initial injury. Four of the eight patients with associated scapho-styloid ...
Analysis of failures after vascularized fibular grafting in femoral head necrosis
(2004)
Evaluation of graft-host bone interactions after failed vascularized fibular grafting of femoral head necrosis may elucidate the reasons for failure of the procedure. According to the authors' study, the vascularized fibula ...
The socio-economic burden of musculoskeletal infections
(2007)
Musculoskeletal disorders are the most common cause of severe chronic pain and physical disability affecting many millions of people. Their impact on the health related quality of life of the individual, the society and ...
Free vascularized fibular grafts for reconstruction of skeletal defects
(2004)
Nourished by the peroneal vessels, the versatile free vascularized fibular graft can be transferred to reconstruct skeletal defects of the extremities. It may be combined with skin, fascia, muscle, and growth-plate tissue ...
Patellar tendon length after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a comparative magnetic resonance imaging study between patellar and hamstring tendon autografts
(2007)
Patellar tendon shortening after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction may be associated with anterior knee pain or patellofemoral arthritis. The present study was designed to compare postoperative changes in patellar ...
Differences in graft orientation using the transtibial and anteromedial portal technique in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a magnetic resonance imaging study
(2009)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences in graft orientation between transtibial (TT) and anteromedial (AM) portal technique using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ...
Three-dimensional finite element modeling of guided ultrasound wave propagation in intact and healing long bones
(2007)
The use of guided waves has recently drawn significant interest in the ultrasonic characterization of bone aiming at supplementing the information provided by traditional velocity measurements. This work presents a ...
Localized pigmented villonodular synovitis in the anteromedial compartment of the knee associated with cartilage lesions of the medial femoral condyle: report of a case and review of the literature
(2005)
Localized pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) of the knee is an uncommon entity, presenting with different clinical signs and symptoms. We report on a case of a 42-year-old woman who presented with a 3-year history of ...
Arthroscopic meniscal repair: a comparative study between three different surgical techniques
(2006)
The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate and compare the results of arthroscopic meniscal repair using three different techniques. Between January 2002 and March 2004, 57 patients who met the inclusion criteria ...
