Arthroscopic lavage of osteoarthritic knees.
A strong clinical impression exists that joint lavage often provides symptomatic relief for painful osteoarthritis of the knee. A controlled trial was conducted to test this hypothesis. A group of 37 painful osteoarthritic knees were treated by arthroscopic lavage and physiotherapy, and a control group of 24 knees were treated by physiotherapy alone. There was better relief of pain in the lavag...
متن کاملIn-vivo Passive Kinematics of Osteoarthritic Knees
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) can lead to pain, disability, and loss of range of motion in the knee. The pre-operative condition of the knee has been shown to influence the functional outcome of treatments for OA [1]. A greater understanding of how motion of the knee is affected by OA may facilitate the assessment of the efficacy of potential treatments. We used a computer-assisted navigatio...
متن کاملThe immunological component of the cellular inflammatory infiltrate in bronchiectasis.
Immunohistological analysis of bronchial biopsy specimens from nine patients with bronchiectasis and four control subjects was performed with a panel of monoclonal antibodies selected to show lymphocyte and macrophage subsets and signs of cellular activation. The cells taking part in the inflammatory response in the bronchial wall of patients with bronchiectasis were almost exclusively mononucl...
متن کاملLaxity in healthy and osteoarthritic knees.
OBJECTIVE Although it is a cause of osteoarthritis (OA) in animal models, laxity in human knee OA has been minimally evaluated. Ligaments become more compliant with age; whether this results in clinical laxity is not clear. In theory, laxity may predispose to OA and/or result from OA. Our goals were to examine the correlation of age and sex with knee laxity in control subjects without OA, compa...
متن کاملFemoral mechanical-anatomical angle of osteoarthritic knees.
BACKGROUND To perform total knee arthroplasty, some surgeons prefer to use a fixed valgus angle, for example 5° or 6°, for the distal femoral cut with every patient. This angle may be appropriate for some patients, but may not be for all. OBJECTIVE To determine the proper angle of the distal femoral cut during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in Thai patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. M...
