Contracture of the deltoid muscle is an uncommon disorder. The symptoms usually are nonspecific and the diagnosis may be missed, especially when combined with other shoulder disorders, such as rotator cuff lesions. Few reports have described the surgical treatment of combined deltoid contracture and a torn rotator cuff. The purpose of this study was to share our experiences in the diagnosis and treatment...
This prospective clinical study was performed to compare the functional results and clinical outcomes of 32 autogenous and 23 allogenous posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstructions with an average follow-up of 34 months. Both groups showed similar age, gender and follow-up time. The indications for surgery included knees with functional disability due to pain and instability from high-energy...
This prospective study compared the clinical results of single- and double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. There were 35 patients including 19 single- and 16 double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstructions using hamstring autograft. The average age was 29.4+/-13.6 years versus 28.2+/-10.4 years; and the average follow-up was 41...
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcome and correlate the results and degenerative change of the affected knees with the duration of injury, ligament laxity and follow-up time in 30 patients with 31 knees undergoing arthroscopic single bundle reconstruction for complete posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear with 2-9-year follow-up.Materials and methods: This series included 22 men and 8 women with...
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcome and the incidence of degenerative changes in 25 patients with 25 knees undergoing surgical reconstruction for combined posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and posterolateral instabilities of the knee with 2-5-year follow-up.Materials and methods: This series included 16 men and 9 women with an average age of 28 years. The average time from injury to surgery...
Purpose: To study the pathomechanism of shock wave injuries to the femoral artery, vein and nerve in dogs.Materials and methods: High-energy shock wave (0.47mJ/mm 2 energy flux density) were applied to the right femoral artery, vein and nerve in nine mongrels, and the left side was used as control. Macroscopic examinations including structure integrity, edema, discolouration and extravasation;...
