Arthroscopic Versus Open Brostrom for Ankle Instability
Background: Ankle sprains are among the most prevalent lesions in primary care. A substantial number of these ligament lesions will develop ankle instability and require a surgical procedure. The Brostrom-Gould technique is the standard surgical approach for this condition, providing excellent results over the years. Thru the last decades, the …
Effectiveness of Balance Training And Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization Training in Amateur Athletes With Chronic Ankle Instability
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine and compare the effects of balance and dynamic neuromuscular stabilization training on ankle function ability, functional instability severity, physical activity level, muscle strength, proprioception, stabilization, balance, reaction time and performance of amateur athletes with chronic ankle instability. The main questions it …
Injection of Botulinum Toxin for Thumb Carpometacarpal Arthritis
The purpose of this clinical trial is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of botulinum toxin injection (or Botox) in the treatment of thumb joint pain/arthritis. People with thumb joint pain or arthritis usually receive steroid injections to help with the pain. However, this medicine does not always …
Positioning for Hip Arthroscopic Surgery to Reduce Postoperative Numbness
Compared to the knee and shoulder, the hip joint leaves relatively little space to maneuver arthroscopic instruments and camera. To expand the potential space in the hip joint, traction is commonly applied to the operative leg through a perineal post. This is an effective technique to improve the working space …
Weight-bearing Diagnostics in Acute Lisfranc Injury: CT vs X-ray
A prospective, cohort study comparing weight-bearing computed tomography with weight-bearing radiography in patients with an acute Lisfranc injury.
Danish Multicenter Scapholunate Ligament Study
Comparison of two surgical techniques commonly used for reconstruction of the scapholunate (SL) ligament. A randomized multicenter study.
RCT on Nonoperative Versus Operative Treatment for Acute Complete tearS of the Ulnar Collateral ligAment of the Thumb
A complete rupture of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) of the thumb must heal in order to regain proper function of the thumb. Guidelines recommend surgery for complete UCL ruptures, including Stener lesions. This recommendation is based on expert opinion, anatomic theories and low quality retrospective case series. High quality …
Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Knee Instability
The aim of this study is to assess the outcomes of the combined quadriceps tendon-bone (QTB) ACLR and MCLR with anteromedial reinforcement performed as described in the published technique: K. Malinowski, K. Hermanowicz, A. Góralczyk, R.F. LaPrade, Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Instability …
Deep Deltoid Ligament Integrity in Weber B Ankle Fractures - Mini-invasive Arthroscopic Evaluation.
Prospective cohort study to evaluate the use of a NanoScopic procedure to assess deltoid ligament injuries with outcomes measured at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 1 year and 2 years. Further to examine whether the findings correlate with results on gravity stress test and weightbearing radiographs.
Accuracy of Sonography in Elbow Trauma
X-rays (XR) are today the standard modality for the diagnosis of bone fractures in the lower or upper limbs in the emergency room. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is an alternative with some obvious advantages especially in the emergency room setting: It does not require the patient to fix the bone of …
