Prognostic factors and long-term outcomes following a modified Thompson's quadricepsplasty for severely stiff knees.
Between 1987 and 2006 we performed a modified Thompson's quadricepsplasty on 40 fracture-related stiff knees and followed the patients for a mean of 7.9 years (2 to 11.1). The factors affecting the final gain of movement were investigated. A total of 15 knees required lengthening of the rectus femoris. The mean flexion gain was 70.2 degrees (42.3 degrees to 112.5 degrees ). According to Judet's...
متن کاملA modified Thompson quadricepsplasty for the stiff knee.
Between March 1987 and March 1997, we performed a modified Thompson quadricepsplasty on 20 stiff knees and followed the patients for a mean of 35 months (24 to 52). After the operation, the knee was immobilised in flexion and periodically extended. At the final follow-up, the mean active flexion was 113.5 degrees (75 to 150). The final mean gain in movement was 67.6 degrees (5 to 105). One pati...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcomes and Prognostic Factors of Trabeculectomy following Intraocular Bevacizumab Injection for Neovascular Glaucoma
PURPOSE To evaluate long-term outcomes and identify prognostic factors of trabeculectomy following intraocular bevacizumab injection for neovascular glaucoma. METHODS Sixty-one eyes of 54 patients with neovascular glaucoma treated by trabeculectomy following intraocular bevacizumab injection were consecutively enrolled. Surgical success criteria were sufficient intraocular pressure (IOP) redu...
متن کاملPrognostic Factors Affecting the Results of Modified Thompson Quadricepsplasty for the Treatment of Extension Contracture of the Knee
Background: Knee extension contracture is a disabling complication after fractures around the knee. In this study we aimed to study factors influencing the outcomes of quadricepsplasty for the treatment of traumatic knee extension contracture. We hypothesized that there is no factor influencing the final range of knee motion.Methods: In this retrospective study, we included 64 patients who unde...
متن کاملI-18: Evaluating Pregnancy and Long-Term Outcomes of ART
When treating infertile couples by assisted reproductive technologies (ART), all aspects of their care in individual clinics should be evaluated frequently. Results should then be compared with other clinics offering similar treatment. Evaluation of possible adverse longterm outcomes can be achieved by pooling results from individual clinics in national, regional and international registers and...
