Aims. This study investigated the effects of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) on pain, function, and quality of life in people with early-stage symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) compared to a sham procedure. Methods. A total of 59 participants with symptomatic Kellgren-Lawrence grade 2 knee OA were randomly allocated to TAE or a sham procedure. The intervention group underwent TAE of one or more genicular
Despite the expansion of arthroscopic surgery
of the shoulder, the open deltopectoral approach to the shoulder
is still frequently used, for example in fracture fixation and shoulder
replacement. However, it is sometimes accompanied by unexpected
bleeding. The cephalic vein is the landmark for the deltopectoral
interval, yet its intimate relationship with the deltoid

We studied 12 consecutive patients with facet joint dislocation in the cervical spine to assess the incidence, site and clinical sequelae of occlusion of the extracranial vertebral

We report a case in which the popliteal
Transarticular screws at the C1 to C2 level of the cervical spine provide rigid fixation, but there is a danger of injury to a vertebral
We have investigated iatrogenic popliteal artery
injuries (PAI) during non arthroplasty knee surgery regarding mechanism
of injury, treatment and outcomes, and to identify successful strategies
when injury occurs. In all, 21 iatrogenic popliteal
We performed superselective angiography in 28 hips in 25 patients with Perthes’ disease in order to study the blood supply of the lateral epiphyseal

We report a 30-year-old patient who was involved in a high-velocity road traffic accident and developed a left-sided hemiparesis, which was noted in the post-operative period following bilateral femoral intramedullary nailing. CT scanning of the brain revealed infarcts in the right frontal and parietal lobes in the distribution of the right middle cerebral

Vascular injuries after total hip arthroplasty are occasionally reported, but we have found only two cases of major arterial occlusion, and none at all involving the common femoral
The proximal humerus internal locking system is an internal fixation device consisting of a low-profile plate and locking screws, which is used for the fixation of three- and four-part fractures of the proximal humerus. We describe a case in which the screws cut out of the humeral head causing injury to the axillary
