For this reason we propose a surgical variation which consists in using a suture reference for the gluteus minimus just before its tenotomy, that allows a better repair of the abductor musculature during the closure. It also facilities muscles mobilization during the dissection, reducing the risk of neurovascular damage if we place an additional retractor, and also protects the gluteus minimus and gluteus medium during the insertion of the prosthetic components. With these advantages, we aim to reduce the most frequent complication of the lateral approach as it is the abductor muscle weakness. This modification only consists in a new suture, so it does not implies additional complications in contrast with the classical approach. However, in some patients can be difficult to place the suture if they have a tendinous deterioration of the gluteus minimus or a chronic break.","PeriodicalId":10732,"journal":{"name":"Current Orthopaedic Practice","volume":"23 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135679338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the impact of the adipose tissue distribution near the surgical site has not been adequately studied. We aimed to characterize the complication rates associated with varying soft tissue depth around the operative hip as measured on plain films. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of primary THAs at our institution from 2009 to 2020. A total of 106 patients met inclusion criteria. Propensity score matching was used to match the patients that required reoperation (n=13) to a cohort of those that did not (n=33) based upon demographics, BMI, and age. Four standardized measurements were taken, and statistical analyses were performed to determine if complication differences existed between cohorts. Results: There was no statistical difference between the non-reoperation cohort or the reoperation cohort in age (65.0 vs. 65.4, P =0.462) or BMI (39.4 vs. 40.9, P =0.108). There was no significant difference between the two cohorts for all four measurements ( P =0.296, P =0.369, P =0.463, P =0.321). A subgroup analysis of patients with BMI ≥40 (n=23) demonstrated that individuals in the reoperation cohort had a higher value of measurements 3 and 4 (237.2 vs. 274.6, P =0.041; 236.5 vs. 284.1, P =0.015). Conclusions: A standardized measurement of thigh width on an AP pelvis plain film may help surgeons identify a subset of patients (BMI ≥40) at elevated risk for complication in primary THA.","PeriodicalId":10732,"journal":{"name":"Current Orthopaedic Practice","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135679340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In orthopaedics, one way to influence cost is through the use of generic implants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate cost-savings and surgical outcomes with the implementation of generic orthopaedic trauma implant use. Methods: This was a retrospective case series of 154 primary orthopaedic trauma patients from April – December 2022 within a level II trauma center. Patients were included if treated solely with generic implants. Exclusion criteria consisted of revision procedures for any reason, and the use of conventional name brand implants. Eleven different primary orthopaedic trauma procedures in which generic implants were evaluated. Main outcome measurements included operative time, perioperative complications, reoperation rates, patient mortality, implant cost, cost-savings. Results: Cost-savings per procedure with the use of generic implants in eleven different primary orthopaedic trauma procedures ranged from 16% to 73%. The average cost-savings was 48.8% among the 11 procedures evaluated, with a yearly cost-savings of 56.0% when case volume is considered. Maintaining the 2021 case volume for one surgeon constant, an overall savings of $256,794 could be generated. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that generic implants can provide an opportunity for relatively good patient outcomes with minimal overall risk. Generic implants are a valid alternative to decrease costs while maintaining acceptable patient outcomes. Future studies should seek to provide patient-reported outcome measures for generic implants and compare them to conventional implant use.","PeriodicalId":10732,"journal":{"name":"Current Orthopaedic Practice","volume":"17 1","pages":"38 - 42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139317799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is one of the first randomized, controlled trials that compare both materials in elective knee arthroplasty. Methods: 120 patients were randomized. Postoperative blood loss was determined and compared by measuring the total drainage suction together with the hemoglobin level and blood transfusion rate. Thromboembolic complications and knee society score were recorded. Results: The mean total drain output was 469 mL in the TXA group compared with 698 mL in the PRP group, with statistical significance. There were significant differences in reduction of hemoglobin level (TXA: 1.21 vs. PRP: 2.08). The rate of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients given TXA was higher than those given PRP, however, there were no significant differences. No transfusions were required in either group, and no significant differences were found in the length of hospital stay, pain assessment and knee society score. Conclusions: Though the blood loss was significantly bigger in the custom-made PRP group, no transfusions were required. Meanwhile, the rate of DVT in the PRP group tends to be lower than those in TXA group. We concluded that PRP was not superior to TXA in reducing perioperative blood loss, however further large-scale randomized trials are crucial to confirm these results to be added to the calling literature.","PeriodicalId":10732,"journal":{"name":"Current Orthopaedic Practice","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135092961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we introduce a suture passing technique using a simple angiocath and compare its results with that of a Scorpion. Patients and Methods: In a retrospective series, 28 patients for whom an angiocath was used to pass the suture and 28 group-matched patients for whom a Scorpion was used were included. The outcomes of the patients were evaluated radiologically by assessment of ghost sign, cleft sign, and meniscal extrusion in knee MRI, and clinically by the assessment of the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lysholm scale, and VAS for pain, which were obtained in the last follow-up. Results: The baseline characteristics of the two groups were not significantly different. After the operation, no patient had a positive ghost or cleft sign. The change of meniscal extrusion was not statistically different between the two groups (P=0.24). At the last follow-up, the mean Lysholm scale was 84.7±7.3 in the case group and 83.7±7.4 in the control group (P=0.61). The mean IKDC score was 84.6±6.8 in the case group and 85.3±4.9 in the control group (P=0.33). The mean VAS for pain was 3.2±0.9 in the case group and 3.3±0.9 in the control group (P=0.44).
