Mosaicplasty for the Treatment of Articular Cartilage Defects: Application in Clinical PracticeABSTRACT
This article describes a one-step operative technique for the treatment of circumscript cartilage defects of weight-bearing surfaces of the knee. Since 1992, a total of 227 patients were treated using this technique for full-thickness lesions resulting from chondropathy, traumatic chondral defects, and osteochondritis dissecans; the procedure was evaluat... ...

Treatment of Articular Cartilage Defects in Athletes: An Analysis of Functional Outcome and Lesion AppearanceABSTRACT
This article characterizes chondral injuries and reviews the results of microfracture treatment in high-level competitive and recreational athletes. Thirty-eight high-level and 140 recreational athletes completed functional questionnaires preoperatively and yearly postoperatively, recording symptoms, function, and activity level. Second-look arthroscopy ... ...

Early Results of a Reverse Design Prosthesis in the Treatment of Arthritis of the Shoulder in Elderly Patients With a Large Rotator Cuff TearResults of shoulder arthroplasty in patients with a deficient rotator cuff often are suboptimal with significant limitations in postoperative active mobility. Short-term results using a reverse design prosthesis in the treatment of the cuff-deficient arthritic shoulder are encouraging. This prosthesis compares favorably, particularly with regard to postoperative active anterior elevation, ... ...

Adaptive Bone Remodeling and Biomechanical Design Considerations for Noncemented Total Hip ArthroplastyABSTRACT: Clinical problems with noncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) stems, directly or indirectly related to load transfer, include mid-thigh pain due to relative (micro) motions or excessive endosteal interface stresses, subsidence and loosening due to inadequate primary stability and fit, and proximal femoral bone atrophy due to stress shielding. In this article, the load-transfer ... ...

PLANTAR FOREFOOT ULCERATION WITH EQUINUS DEFORMITY OF THE ANKLE IN DIABETIC PATIENTS: THE EFFECT OF TENDO-ACHILLES LENGTHENING AND TOTAL CONTACT CASTINGABSTRACT Between 1993 and 1995, 93 neuropathic diabetes mellitus patients with foot ulcers underwent a total contact cast (TCC) protocol. A randomly chosen group of 21 patients (Group I) demonstrated ulcer healing in a mean time of 43.5 days. Despite 9 weeks of TCC, 15 patients (Group II) with forefoot ulcers failed to heal. Physical examination of Group I revealed plantarf... ...

Diagnostic and Operative Arthroscopy of the HipABSTRACT: Diagnostic and operative arthroscopies of the hip joint have been performed from an anterior approach after extension of the joint. The force needed to achieve a sufficient visualization of the hip joint was studied. In an anesthetized patient 300 Newtons (N) to 500 N was required, whereas up to 900 N was needed in an unanesthetized subject to achieve sufficient joint extension. ... ...

VASTUS MEDIALIS OBLIQUE: AN ANATOMIC AND PHYSIOLOGIC STUDYABSTRACT: The lower part of the vastus medialis, which originates chiefly from the tendon of the adductor magnus, has been designated as the "vastus medialis oblique." This muscle is peculiar to man. The fibers of the muscle are mostly horizontal; therefore they are in a unique position to stabilize the patella against the femur in the later stages of extension of the knee. This article de... ...

Chronic Plantar Fasciitis: Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma, Corticosteroid, and Placebo
Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain. It is a disabling disease in its chronic form. It is a degenerative tissue condition of the plantar fascia rather than an inflammation. Various treatment options are available, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroid injections, orthosis, and physiotherapy. This study compared the effects of local platele... ...

PIN TRACT INFECTIONS: SILVER VS UNCOATED PINSABSTRACT
To test the hypothesis that coating external fixation pins with a silver-containing compound (Spi-Argent, Spire Corp, Bedford, Mass) will reduce bacterial colonization and/ or pin tract infection, 36 silver-coated and 12 conventional stainless steel pins were placed in the iliac crest of six sheep and inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus. After 2 ½ week... ...
