The foot is a complex structure made up of 28 bones, 33 joints, 19 muscles, over 100 tendons and ligaments, and more than 200,000 different nerve endings. These work together to allow you to walk, run, maintain balance, absorb impact, and bear upper body weight.
Dual mobility components are linked to decreased dislocation rate, according to a presenter.
Surgical approaches for total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) are broadly divided into two groups; “triceps-off” and “triceps-on” approaches. Traditional “triceps-off” approaches provide excellent visualization for TEA; however, they carry a risk of triceps failure and require triceps protecting rehabilitation protocols. Triceps-on approaches have the advantage of preservation of triceps function, yet present technical challenges for access to and preparation of the bony surfaces of the proximal ulna and radius
According to published results, the use of gabapentinoids may be associated with an increased risk of hip fractures in older, frail patients and patients with chronic kidney disease.
Total ankle arthroplasty has emerged as a treatment to successfully treat ankle arthritis. Recent studies have reported more than 40 000 total ankle arthroplasties (TAAs) being performed between 2009 and 2019 in the United States. Although recent studies have reported favorable patient-reported outcomes at short- and midterm follow-up, there is a paucity of aggregate literature reporting on long-term patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after TAA. The purpose of this review is to report an aggregate of literature on minimum 10-year patient-reported outcomes after TAA.
