Analysis of the soft tissue retraction pressures in total ankle arthroplasty: An in-vitro human cadaveric model

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Analysis of the soft tissue retraction pressures in total ankle arthroplasty: An in-vitro human cadaveric model
Abstract Background Total ankle arthroplasty wound healing complications are likely influenced by intraoperative retraction. The current study compared contact pressures from various retractors at multiple incision lengths in an anterior…

Comparing proximal and distal chevron osteotomy for moderate to severe hallux valgus: A meta-analysis of clinical and radiological outcomes, focusing on hallux valgus angle and intermetatarsal angle

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Comparing proximal and distal chevron osteotomy for moderate to severe hallux valgus: A meta-analysis of clinical and radiological outcomes, focusing on hallux valgus angle and intermetatarsal angle
Abstract Background Moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities are traditionally managed with proximal chevron osteotomy (PCO) due to its ability to correct significant angular deviations. However, distal chevron osteotomy (DCO),…

Percutaneous anterior to posterior screw fixation via lateral malleolus incision window for Bartoníček-Rammelt type 4 posterior malleolus fractures

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Percutaneous anterior to posterior screw fixation via lateral malleolus incision window for Bartoníček-Rammelt type 4 posterior malleolus fractures
Abstract Introduction The presence of a posterior malleolar (PM) fragment has a negative prognostic impact in ankle fractures. Percutaneous anterior to posterior screw fixation has been advocated for the treatment…

Abnormal axial rotation of the Talus on weight-bearing computed tomography in patients with micro-instability of the ankle

Sep 5, 2026 by in ORTHOPEDIC Comments Off on Abnormal axial rotation of the Talus on weight-bearing computed tomography in patients with micro-instability of the ankle
Abstract Background While diagnosing mechanical chronic ankle instability (CAI) is often straightforward, identifying subtle micro-instability remains challenging. A tear of the superior bundle of the lateral ligament complex has been…

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,…
