Synostosis of the Proximal Tibiofibular Joint
The incidence of synostosis of the proximal tibiofibular joint (TFJ) was assessed among 1029 patients examined for osteoarthritis of the knee in a 4-year period. Radiographic evidence of a synostosis of the proximal TFJ was demonstrated in 3 knees (3 patients). The synostosis appeared incidental and was not the cause of symptoms in any of them. These patients were further examined with MRI and/...
متن کاملProximal tibial osteotomy. A new fixation device.
A new internal fixation device was applied to 41 proximal tibial osteotomies to ensure against loss of postoperative correction. An oblique osteotomy was stabilized by two screws and a five-hole one-half tubular plate. Thirty-six patients with 41 proximal tibial osteotomies were reviewed for an average roentgenographic follow-up time of 22.6 months (range, six to 48 months) with no loss of corr...
متن کاملBilateral Proximal Radioulnar Synostosis
Synostosis or osseous union of any 2 adjacent bones can involve any part of the body. Synostosis between radius and ulna can take two forms, congenital and post Synostosis is a very rare congenital anomaly and most cases a post-traumatic, bilateral in 60% and more common in males. It is often part of syndromes such as Crouzon, Apert's and Poland's,4p Bixler syndrome, Genito multiple osteochondr...
متن کاملProximal tibiofibular subluxation relationship to lateral knee pain: a review of proximal tibiofibular joint pathologies.
Proximal tibiofibular subluxation is the symptomatic hypermobility of the proximal tibiofibular joint. Pain along the lateral aspect of the knee must be carefully evaluated as the anatomy and biomechanics of this region are very complex. Anatomical variants of the proximal tibiofibular joint may be key to understanding the pathomechanics and, thus, treatment of this joint. The "horizontal" prox...
متن کاملA Critical Review of Proximal Fibular Osteotomy for Knee Osteoarthritis
The surgical management of Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA), so far, mainly revolved around arthroscopic procedures,arthroplasty (total: TKA and unicompartmental: UKA) or high tibial osteotomy (HTO). Recently, another minimallyinvasive surgical treatment of proximal fibular osteotomy (PFO) has been proposed for the management of KOA. ThePFO has been found to be useful in the manageme...
