Various prophylactic methods have been evaluated, such as double antibiotic protection with intravenous Cefazolin and soaking of the transplant with vancomycin, which results in a near- zero infection rate. This soaking method has only been studied in vitro, confirming the absence of toxicity of vancomycin on tenocytes. The primary objective of our study was to assess the mechanical quality of vancomycin-soaked tendon transplants at 6 months post-operatively. The secondary objective was to assess the rate of new rupture at 1 year. This is a retrospective, single-center study including patients who underwent ACL reconstruction using a vancomycin- soaked hamstring autograft at Rennes University Hospital between December 2018 and February 2021. An objective assessment of joint laxity by means of the GNRB® at 134N was performed at 6 months post-operatively and a clinical evaluation (Lysholm and subjective IKDC questionnaires) at 1 year were performed. Fifty-three patients aged between 18 and 57 years were included. At 6 months, GNRB® of the operated knee joints was significantly different compared with the non-operated ones but was below the threshold for complete or partial rupture according to the manufacturer's clinical significance threshold (3 mm for a complete rupture and 1.5 mm for a partial rupture). At one year, 3.8% of our population had an early rupture, the reason for which was technical defects in the positioning of the graft. The stability of knees reconstructed with a Vancomycine soaked ACL graft is comparable with that of the contralateral knee with an intact ACL. Level of evidence : IV, retrospective study.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 3","pages":"415-420"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143027687","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}

Therefore, in this meta-analysis, we aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of SPECT/CT for identification of aseptic loosening in patients with persistent pain following the total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA). Electronic databases including Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane library, and Embase were systematically searched for identifying relevant published studies from their inception to April 2023. Quality evaluation of the included studies was carried out using Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2). SPECT/CT had pooled sensitivity of 94% (95% CI: 92-95%) and pooled specificity of 86% (95% CI: 83-89%) for diagnosis of aseptic loosening. The pooled positive likelihood ratio (LR) was estimated as 6.92 (95% CI: 3.74-12.81), the pooled negative LR was estimated as 0.1 (95% CI: 0.06-0.16), and the pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was estimated as 89.82 (95% CI: 33.04- 244.21). The Summary receiver operating characteristics (SROC) analysis revealed high accuracy with an area under curve (AUC) of 0.96. The findings of this meta-analysis revealed that SPECT/CT has high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis of aseptic loosening in patients who underwent TKA or THA. Therefore, SPECT/CT can be considered as an encouraging diagnostic adjunct, particularly in cases with uncertain results of bone scan.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 3","pages":"503-511"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143027420","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}

However, there is no consensus on the treatment of these fractures and their relative indications for surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine whether surgical treatment of mid-diaphyseal clavicular fractures indeed results in fewer complications and better radiological outcomes, as current trends suggest, in comparison to conservative treatment. A retrospective multicenter study was conducted between January 2005 and April 2017, involving adult patients aged 16 to 75 years with mid-diaphyseal clavicular fractures. Out of a total of 715 clavicle fractures assessed, 220 met the inclusion criteria for this study. The research encompassed a matched-pair cohort, comparing clavicle fractures treated surgically and those managed conservatively. The consolidation rate was respectively 94.5% In the operative group, and 89.1% in the conservative group. There was no statistically significant difference in terms of consolidation (p-value: 0.219). The surgical group had an infection rate of 1.8%. Additionally, 31.8% of patients experienced hardware-related discomfort, and 43.6% required a secondary surgery to remove the plate. The results of this study reveal a similar rate of consolidation between the two treatment approaches. However, there is a noticeable but not significant difference in pseudarthrosis incidence in the conservative group, which is typically asymptomatic and does not usually require surgical intervention. On the other hand, patients who have undergone osteosynthesis often experience hardware-related discomfort and may require a subsequent procedure for hardware removal. Low profile dual plating might reduce this inconvenient.","PeriodicalId":7018,"journal":{"name":"Acta orthopaedica Belgica","volume":"90 3","pages":"435-441"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143027552","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}

Union was obtained in 3-4 months in all patients.

The aim of the study was to investigate the differences of the reamed versus the unreamed short proximal femoral nailing (PFN), in terms of the duration of surgery and the outcome. The impact of patients and fracture characteristics to the outcome was also evaluated. A retrospective analysis of 158 elderly patients, who sustained intertrochanteric fracture of the femur, with a minimum follow up of one year, was performed. 78 patients underwent a reamed proximal femoral nailing (PFN) whereas 80 patients underwent an unreamed PFN. The duration of surgery, the outcome and the complications between the reamed and the unreamed nailing were compared. A logistic regression was also conducted to estimate the risk factors affecting mortality. The mean duration of surgery for reamed and unreamed G nail was 48,87 min (C.I.: 47,30-50,44) and 42,45 min (C.I.: 41,30-43,60) respectively. No statistically significant difference regarding the need for transfusion and complications, such as wound healing problems and screw cut out was identified between the two types of nailing. The most important factors affecting mortality were the ASA (beta coefficient: 3,127, p-value: 0,002) and the need for transfusion (beta coefficient: 1,367, p-value: 0,05). The only difference found between the reamed and the unreamed PFN was the operation time, which was less for the later one.
