The study incorporated individuals who had a Sanders type 1 fracture that was both closed and non-displaced and were treated with conventional plaster. The current study retrospectively reviewed medical records to gather demographic data, duration of immobilization, smoking habits, administration of VC supplementation, and presence of diabetes mellitus (DM). The Budapest criteria were employed to make the clinical diagnosis of CRPS. The study cohort comprised 258 (75.9%) males and 82 (24.1%) females aged between 18 and 90 years who had sustained Sanders type 1 calcaneal fractures and were managed non-operatively. CRPS was detected in 42 (12.4%) of the 340 subjects. CRPS patients had a statistically higher immobilization duration than those without CRPS (p<0.05). Smoking and DM were more common among patients with CRPS (p<0.05) and CRPS patients had a much lower rate of VC consumption (4.8%) (p<0.05). The current study is the first to examine risk variables for CRPS after calcaneal fractures. Long periods of immobility, female gender, and lack of VC supplementation increase the risk of CRPS. CRPS also increases with diabetes and smoking.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 2","pages":"271-277"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142492716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to hypermobility, disorders such as joint pain and early arthritis are common. The aim of this study was to assess clinical and radiological outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with EDS treated in a high volume orthopaedic centre.Methods: A search was performed of the electronic patient record system at our institution from 1998 - 2019 using the search terms 'EDS' or 'Danlos' and 'arthroplasty'. Over the 22-year study period, there were approximately 32,000 primary THAs performed at our institution. We collated demographic information including age, gender, BMI, smoking history and medical comorbidities. Implant type, bearing surfaces and size was also documented, with clinical and radiological assessment at last known follow up.Results: A total of n=5 primary THAs were identified in n=4 patients at a median follow-up of 3 years. All patients were female with a median age of 68 (SD 18.9) years and a median BMI of 30.7 (SD 4.5). The majority of patients were smokers, and had a chronic history of low back pain (n=3, 75%). Uncemented implants were used on n=3 occasions with the remainder being hybrid (n=2). Femoral head size ranged from 28mm to 44mm. One patient had a post-operative surgical wound erythema that resolved within 48 hours of onset, otherwise there were no significant wound complications. To date, there have been no documented dislocations, with all patients having satisfactory clinical and radiological outcome at last known follow up.Conclusions: This study demonstrates that total hip arthroplasty can be safely performed in patients with a diagnosis of EDS, with no significant complications in the intermediate term.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 2","pages":"167-170"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142492746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To date, several preventive therapies for arthrofibrosis have been reported. This systematic review aims to summarize current knowledge about pharmacological arthrofibrosis prevention.Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in Medline, Web of Science, and Cochrane library using the search term 'Arthrofibrosis AND prevention'. Subsequently, articles reporting the effects of a preventive pharmacological intervention against arthrofibrosis were included in this review.Results: 16 studies investigated the pharmacological prevention of arthrofibrosis of which 13 were conducted in animal models. Several drugs improved the range of motion (ROM) in animal models. Bevacizumab (ROM +39.4 degrees), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (ROM +18.0-31.2 degrees), and rosiglitazone (ROM +19.5 degrees) significantly increased the ROM. Artesunate, mitomycin c, bevacizumab, hyaloglide, and botulinum toxin A significantly reduced adhesion scores. None of the drugs tested in humans improved the functional outcomes after joint arthroplasty. Methodological differences limited the ability to compare outcomes and, due to poor reporting of methodology, many studies had an unclear risk of bias.Conclusion: This review identified several drugs as potential candidates for arthrofibrosis prevention. These drugs modulate inflammation or alter the activity of fibroblasts. Most studies are conducted in experimental animal models and none of these results are currently translated into a clinical application. Moreover, the methodology and route of administration varied between studies. Nor were dose dependency studies conducted. Future studies should adopt a standardized approach to determine the effects of preventive pharmacological interventions on arthrofibrosis.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 2","pages":"311-318"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142492748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim of this review is to determine the effect of different corticosteroid dosages on PONV, pain, and LOS in TKA. A systematic search for articles comparing dosage effects of corticosteroids regarding PONV, pain, and LOS after primary unilateral TKA was conducted using EMBASE, PubMed publisher, MEDLINE, Cochrane, Google scholar, and Web-of-Science for articles published from inception to March 17, 2022. 16 studies were included involving 2352 TKA procedures. Most studies showed reduced pain scores in corticosteroid groups and some described better pain reduction in high-dose groups. All studies showed reduced PONV in the corticosteroid groups. LOS was similar in most studies comparing placebo and perioperative corticosteroids. Only one study reported increased infection rates and intramuscular venous thrombosis in the corticosteroid group. Concluding, current literature on corticosteroids use in TKA is highly variable in type, dosage, and timing of administering medication. Overall, corticosteroids mostly reduce pain and PONV with limited effects on LOS after TKA. Only minimal statistically significant and clinically relevant benefits were found in perioperative high-dose corticosteroids compared to low-dose. Given the short follow-up in most studies, it is not possible to evaluate safety of high-dose corticosteroids.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 2","pages":"335-342"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142492747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additional inclusion criteria were English- and Dutch-language articles published between January 2000 and December 2022 with at least 8 patients and at least 1 year of follow-up.Results: Seventeen articles were included, 9 covered tenodesis repair, 2 focused on capsulodesis, 3 on direct scapholunate ligament repair using bone anchors, and 3 on a combination of tenodesis and capsulodesis. No difference could be found between the types of surgical techniques in wrist mobility and grip strength. The Disability of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score, Visual Analogue Scale for pain and Mayo wrist scores showed no clinically relevant difference. With all methods, normal radiological values were obtained after surgery. The mean scapholunate angle was less than 60° and the scapholunate gap less than 3 mm. However, at longer follow-up an increase in this angle and gap was seen again.Discussion: This review did not allow to conclude that one technique was better than another to treat scapholunate dissociation because of poor quality of the included studies.

Both generic (EQ-5D) and specific (HOOS) PROMs of general hospital patients undergoing hip replacement surgery in 2021 were conducted. The results of these PROMs were then combined with financial and health management data.
