Current Progress In Orthopaedics

چکیده
The content covers congenital, developmental and degenerative conditions, trauma, growth and infection related disorders, and clinically relevant basic scientific research. Congenital abnormalities affecting the limbs remains a great challenge to orthopaedic surgeons, but development in this field is swinging from amputation and prosthetic fitting to bone and soft tissue reconstruction due to better understanding of underlying pathology and improvement in surgical techniques. Management of congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) has changed dramatically favouring non-operative approach (Ponseti technique), while early surgical intervention for brachial plexus birth palsy (BPBP) is gaining popularity with better defined indications. An update on management of cerebral palsy children stresses the importance of disease categorization and single event multilevel surgery (SEMLS) approach.

متن کاملMiR-125b inhibits stromal cell proliferation in giant cell tumor of bone by targeting parathyroid hormone 1 receptor
Objective(s):miR-125b has been identified as a tumor suppressor in many tumors, but its role in giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone remains poorly understood. The current study aimed to investigate the potential role and mechanism of miR-125b in GCT. Materials and Methods:Expression levels of miR-125b in GCT tissues were determined using RT-PCR. The cell proliferation was surveyed by direct cell coun...

Background: Research projects are presented at the Annual Meetings of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH). It is unknown how many achieve publication in peer-reviewed journals. We sought to determine current rates of publication of podium and poster presentations. Methods: All ASSH podium and poster presentations from 2000 to 2005 were reviewed, and an Internet-based search ...
متن کاملTowards More Capable and Less Invasive Robotic Surgery in Orthopaedics
Current surgical robotic systems in orthopaedics lack realistic pre-operative simulations and utilize invasive methods to register bone intra-operatively. A multidisciplinary group of researchers is addressing these de ciencies in the context of robotic cementless hip replacement surgery. In this paper we outline our current research progress and a road-map for the short-term future of our rese...
