Purpose Spondylodiscitis represents a condition with significant heterogeneity. A significant proportion of patients are managed without surgical intervention, but there remains a group where surgery is mandated. The aim of our study was to create a scoring system to guide clinicians as to which patients with spondylodiscitis may require surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients presenting...

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body but, as a consequence is also the most unstable. Stability is aided by boney, ligamentous and muscular structures and as a result may be related to trauma, hyper mobility or muscle patterning. Acute management requires careful history and examination with gentle reduction by a number of means and then may be treated conservatively or surgically. There...

Virtual clinics have been shown to be safe and cost-effective in many specialties, yet barriers exist to their implementation in orthopaedics. The aims of this study were to look at whether the management of 5th metatarsal fractures using a virtual fracture clinic model is safe, cost effective and avoids adverse outcomes whilst being acceptable to patients using the service.All patients with a fifth...

Fragility femoral fractures occur in a similar group of patients to hip fractures but they are not routinely managed along standardised guidelines. This study looked specifically at whether delay to surgery has an impact on mortality and morbidity.An international, multi-centre retrospective review was carried including all patients over 60 years with fragility femoral fractures, including most periprosthetic...

To date, there has been little research into the clinical outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) for intracapsular neck of femur (NOF) fracture in the very elderly. 44 patients over 75years underwent THA for an intracapsular NOF fracture over a two year period. Oxford Hip Scores were obtained from 37 patients with a mean score of 39.7 (range 11–47). Katz Index Scores were collected from 36 patients...

Purpose There is growing evidence supporting minimally invasive surgical (MIS) techniques for correction of symptomatic hallux valgus. The aim of this study was to present a hybrid third-generation technique and assess the safety and efficacy from the first 45 procedures. Methods Forty-five consecutive feet underwent a third-generation MIS distal chevron osteotomy with a minimum six month follow-up...

Adverse weather has been shown to increase orthopaedic referrals and place strain on services. This retrospective study undertaken at a teaching hospital concerned referrals between April 2009 and April 2010 comparing days when snow fell to days when it did not. Referrals increased significantly on snow days (to 74.9 per day) in comparison to normal weather days (33.5 per day). During snow days there...
