This study aimed to analyze the incidence and risk factors associated with surgical site infection (SSI) following open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for ankle fractures.
Hip arthroplasties for the treatment of displaced femoral neck fractures in adults can be total replacement or hemiarthroplasty. Despite the large number of studies on the topic, the best choice of arthroplasty to be used remains unclear.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a widely performed surgical intervention for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. However, various patient-specific factors altering the biomechanics can influence the surgical technique and the postoperative outcomes. In this case report, a patient is presented who was admitted to our hospital with chronic left knee pain caused by osteoarthritis, with a history of patellectomy after a traumatic event 35 years ago.
Although reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is a popular treatment, its efficacy in patients with failed rotator cuff repair (ARCR) remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical results of RSA for following failed ARCR. We hypothesized that RSA after failed ARCR would lead to improved clinical outcomes comparable to those of RSA performed without prior surgeries.
You'll know a toenail fungus is dying when the base of your nail begins to improve in color and texture. When this new growth is smooth, pinkish, and clear, the infection is considered clinically cured.
