MRI assessment of graft maturation after arthroscopic anatomical lateral ankle ligament reconstruction: One-year comparison between autograft and allograft

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on MRI assessment of graft maturation after arthroscopic anatomical lateral ankle ligament reconstruction: One-year comparison between autograft and allograft
Abstract Background Chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) is a common condition often requiring surgical reconstruction of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL). While autografts are traditionally used,…

Intramedullary pinning of concomitant fibular shaft fractures prevents postoperative tibial shaft malalignment without increasing soft tissue complications

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Intramedullary pinning of concomitant fibular shaft fractures prevents postoperative tibial shaft malalignment without increasing soft tissue complications
Abstract Background Tibial diaphysis fractures, accounting for 17 % of lower extremity fractures, are often associated with fibular fractures. This study compares intramedullary pinning and extramedullary plating for fibular fixation…

Does the medial longitudinal arch collapse recur after subtalar arthroereisis implant removal? A long-term follow-up study in adolescents

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Does the medial longitudinal arch collapse recur after subtalar arthroereisis implant removal? A long-term follow-up study in adolescents
Abstract Background Flexible flatfoot is a common pediatric condition characterized by a reducible loss of the medial longitudinal arch during weight-bearing. While subtalar arthroereisis is widely used for its minimally…

Minimally invasive percutaneous tarsometatarsal fusion with bone autograft, non-compression screws, and immediate postoperative weightbearing

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Minimally invasive percutaneous tarsometatarsal fusion with bone autograft, non-compression screws, and immediate postoperative weightbearing
Abstract Background Percutaneous tarsometatarsal (TMT) fusion is a novel technique with sparse reported literature. This study aims to evaluate patient reported outcomes, fusion and complication rates following percutaneous TMT fusion….

Mechanical failure after primary internal fixation of unstable ankle fractures –A retrospective observational study

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Mechanical failure after primary internal fixation of unstable ankle fractures –A retrospective observational study
Abstract Background Ankle fractures are common injuries treated by trauma surgeons. Failure of fixation necessitating subsequent revisions remains a significant concern, carrying increased morbidity and healthcare cost. Mechanical failures are…

Biomechanical comparison in a cadaveric flatfoot model between different calcaneal osteotomies with and without transfer from the peroneus brevis to the longus

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Biomechanical comparison in a cadaveric flatfoot model between different calcaneal osteotomies with and without transfer from the peroneus brevis to the longus
Abstract Introduction Progressive collapsing flexible foot deformities are generally treated with joint-preserving techniques. Our objective was to evaluate biomechanically the effect of different calcaneal osteotomies with or without a peroneus…

Effects of exercise combined with external support on hallux valgus angle and pain: A systematic review and network meta-analysis

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Effects of exercise combined with external support on hallux valgus angle and pain: A systematic review and network meta-analysis
Abstract Background Hallux valgus (HV) is a common foot deformity that causes pain and functional limitations. For mild-to-moderate cases, conservative treatment such as exercise therapy and external supports is preferred….
