Purpose. The posterolateral or posterior approach for total hip arthroplasty has the advantages of preserving the hip abductor musculature and providing good visualization during femoral preparation and component insertion. Although posterolateral approach is one of the popular approaches in hip arthroplasty, it has been reported high dislocation rate as a drawback. To compensate the drawback the

We hypothesised that diet-induced obesity (DIO) would result in inferior enthesis healing in a rat model of rotator cuff (RC)
Meniscal tears are the most common knee injuries, occurring in acute ruptures or in chronic degenerative conditions. Meniscectomy and meniscal repair are two surgical treatment options. Meniscectomy is easier, faster, and the patient can return to their normal activities earlier. However, this procedure has long-term consequences in the development of degenerative changes in the knee, potentially leading to knee replacement. On the other hand, meniscal repair can offer prolonged benefits to the patients, but it is difficult to perform and requires longer rehabilitation. Sutures are used for meniscal repairs, but they have limitations. They induce tissue damage when passing through the meniscus. Furthermore, under dynamic loading of the knee, they can cause tissue shearing and potentially lead to meniscal repair failure. Our team has developed a new technology of resistant adhesive hydrogels to coat the suture used to

Abstract. Ramp lesions are meniscocapsular or meniscosynovial tears associated with chronic ACL injury and are postulated to occur because of disruption of meniscotibial ligament. Various techniques have been described in literature for their diagnosis and
Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocations is a common disorder amongst our population for which numerous techniques have been described. It is thought that by using this novel technique combining a CC and AC
It is undetermined which factors predict return to work following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. We aimed to identify which factors predicted return to work at any level, and return to pre-injury levels of work 6 months post-arthroscopic rotator cuff
Our primary objective was to compare healing rates in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair for degenerative tears, with and without bone channeling. Our secondary objectives were to compare disease-specific quality of life and patient reported outcomes as measured by the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and Constant score between groups. Patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair at three sites were randomized to receive either bone channeling augmentation or standard

Abstract. Background. We know that tears of the Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) can cause DRUJ instability and ulnar sided wrist pain. This study shows the clinical result of patients who had arthroscopic transosseous
Avulsion of the proximal hamstring tendon from the ischial tuberosity is an uncommon but significant injury. Recent literature has highlighted that functional results are superior with surgical
The indication for rotator cuff
Surgical reattachment of torn rotator cuff tendons can lead to satisfactory clinical outcome but failures remain common. Ortho-R product is a freeze-dried formulation of chitosan (CS) that is solubilized in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to form injectable implants. The purpose of the current pilot study was to determine Ortho-R implant acute residency, test safety of different implant doses, and assess efficacy over standard of care in a sheep model. The infraspinatus tendon (ISP) was detached and immediately
