However, the definition, mechanism, classification, and surgical approach for fractures have not been thoroughly investigated. This study aims to explore current literature to expand the understanding of this fracture to help physicians achieve better treatment outcomes. Keywords such as “posterior pilon,” “surgical approach,” “fracture,” etc., were used to find relevant literature on PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and the Web of Science. Inclusion criteria involved studies discussing PPFs and retrospective and prospective cohort studies. Exclusion criteria included non-English-published papers, anatomical or biomechanical studies, and studies not discussing PPFs. General demographics, complications, and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) functional outcome scores were collected. A total of 18 publications were selected for data collection, most of which were retrospective studies. The articles discussed 959 (Male: 430, Female: 529) patients. PPFs are defined as distal tibia fractures involving impaction of the articular surface and proximal displacement of talus and posterior malleolus fragments. This characteristic fracture is caused by high-energy rotational and axial load. Five studies in this review describe a classification system for ankle fractures that include studies from Klammer (2013), Bartoníček (2015), Mason (2017), Zhang (2018), and Wang (2020). The posterolateral (PL) approach was used in 34.9 % of cases, followed by the posteromedial (PM) in 7.9 %, modified PM in 20.7 %, and combined PM and PL approach in 6.9 % of cases. PPFs are breaks that occur in the posterior half of the articular surface of the distal tibia, typically affecting the weight-bearing area. These fractures result from a combination of rotational and axial loads, leading to intra-articular ankle fractures that often involve a sizeable posterior fragment. Five classification systems for PPFs identify characteristics observable in X-rays, CT scans, or through morphological analysis. The posterolateral (PL) approach was used more than the posteromedial approach.

Cell proliferation was evaluated through the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, while Western blot analysis was utilized to determine the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins (LC3II/I, BECLIN-1) and apoptosis markers (BAX, Bcl-2), as well as to assess the activation status of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in OA synovial cells. These analyses were performed under conditions of ADORA2B and mTOR silencing, as well as in control settings.

Early and accurate prediction of growth of these tears is a challenging task with immense clinical significance. Finite element method is a promising technique in this direction, however, the combined effects of tears and degeneration in the posterior region of annulus has not been studied. The present work focuses on a numerical evaluation of the contribution of annulus material degeneration, the position of tear and regular physiological movements (extension, flexion, left and right lateral bending) on the growth of the posterior circumferential tear in the annulus of the L5-S1 spinal unit. The material models developed previously to describe degeneration effects were adopted for defining the annulus material. The tear is modelled by altering the mesh to determine its effects in the presence of degeneration in the annulus. Degeneration, which is a loss of functional ability due to age-related effects, influenced the stress response significantly across all types of movements. Flexion movement is found to have the most predominant damaging effect on the tears, evident by the higher stresses along the tear boundary. Tears near the outer periphery of the annulus were likely to experience higher magnitudes of stress for an applied load and, hence, were suggested to be more critical. Extension movement seemed to aid in the recovery of the tear, supporting the results of clinical studies. This study highlights the complex interaction between physiological movements and the progression of posterior circumferential tears under different stages of degeneration, which can enable clinicians to develop and implement suitable patient-specific treatment modalities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16633,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics","volume":"67 ","pages":"Pages 148-164"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143154693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although conventional surgical procedures can correct deformities to a certain extent, some key parameters such as osteotomy displacement and angle are often difficult to determine, leading to increased uncertainty in surgical outcomes and a relatively high incidence of postoperative complications.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Objective&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hallux valgus is a common foot deformity that often leads to pain, difficulty in walking, and other health problems, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. In order to provide patients with more precise treatment, we aimed to simulate the Scarf osteotomy for the treatment of hallux valgus using the finite element method, and comparatively analyze the mechanical performance indicators under different distal osteotomy displacements. We hoped to provide scientific and reasonable treatment plans for clinical practice and better treatment outcomes for patients.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;A volunteer with moderate hallux valgus was selected as the research subject in this study. Preoperative plantar pressure test was conducted, and the CT data of the patient's affected foot was collected to create the finite element model using finite element software. After verifying the validity of the model, it was used to simulate the translational Scarf osteotomy under different settings. Specifically, the distal end of the bone fragment was pushed outwards by varying distances (2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm) and was fixed with screws.

Although PT ruptures are rare, they result in severe loss of function when untreated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and functional outcomes and complications following primary, acute patellar tendon (PT) repair.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>In accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched in August 2024 for studies published after 2004. Studies were included if they met these criteria: evaluated patients who underwent acute PT repair with any technique including for mid-substance tear or avulsion, were prospective or retrospective studies, and reported functional outcomes or complications. Studies not written in English were excluded.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The initial screen identified 1737 studies, 9 of which were included in this systematic review. There were three retrospective cohort studies, three retrospective case series, one retrospective case control study, and two prospective case series. Each study had low risk of bias. A total of 970 patients (93.8 % males) were included. Mean age across studies ranged from 32.1 to 44.6 years. Five included studies reported on mean extension at follow-up, ranging from 0 to 6.4 degrees of extension. Five included studies reported on mean flexion at follow-up, ranging from 128.5 to 143.3 degrees of flexion. The range of re-rupture and re-operation were 0–21.4 % with an overall re-rupture rate of 3.9 % and an overall re-operation rate of 5.7 %. Only one study reported a significant difference in re-rupture rates with transosseous repair versus suture anchor repair (7.5 % versus 0 % respectively). Other complications identified were venous thromboembolism (VTE) (0–5.0 %), stiffness (0–35.0 %), hardware discomfort (0–5.0 %), and infection (0–5.0 %).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Patellar tendon repair with both transosseous and suture anchor technique restores range of motion in patients post-operatively with a low complication rate. Decisions regarding operative technique should be tailored to individual patient characteristics and surgeon preferences.</div></div><div><h3>Level of evidence</h3><div>Level IV, systematic review of level III-IV studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16633,"journal":{"name":"Journal of orthopaedics","volume":"66 ","pages":"Pages 146-153"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143123054","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}
