[ 1 ] - Stress Fracture of the Lateral Femoral Condyle afterTotal Knee Arthroplasty

Background: This is to assess one of the rare complications after total knee replacement and to assess risk factors of failure.Methods: 11 patients with varus knee and an average age of 67 years underwent TKA between 2005 and 2013. All patients returned with a sudden sharp knee pain, disability to walk and significant decrease in ROM about 4 to 8 weeks after surgery. Radiographic examination re...

[ 2 ] - Evaluation of Distal Femoral Rotational Alignment with Spiral CT Scan before Total Knee Arthroplasty (A Study in Iranian Population)

    Background: Evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative CT scanning. The purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes’ guiding distal femur rotational ...

[ 3 ] - The Results of Biplanar Distal Femoral Osteotomy; A Case Series Study

Background:  Distal femur wedge osteotomies for varus or valgus alignment of the lower extremity could be done in either uniplanar or biplanar fashion.Union time and stability of the osteotomy site has been considered important in this anatomic region. In this study, clinical and radiographic findings of biplane distal femur osteotomy were reported. Methods: Clinical, functional, and radiologic...

[ 4 ] - Stage IE Primary Bone Lymphoma:Limb Salvage for Local Recurrence

Background:   Primary bone lymphoma or non-Hodgkin lymphoma of bone is a rare disease. There are only a few case series of stage IE of this condition in medical literature. The aim of this study is to determine the rate of survival   for stage IE after combined modality treatment, the rate of local recurrence, and the results of limb salvage in cases   of local recurrence.     Methods:   We col...

[ 5 ] - Long- Stem Total Knee Arthroplasty for Proximal Tibial Stress Fractures in the Elderly Patients

Background: Presentation of proximal tibia stress fracture is not infrequent among elderly patients due to their poorbone stock. Optimal management of patients with severe gonarthrosis of the knee and concurrent tibial stress fracture isnot known yet. In this study we report the outcome of primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using stemmed componentsin elderly patients.Methods: Between 2009 an...

[ 6 ] - Surgical outcomes of 26 patients with pigmented villonodularsy-novitis (PVNS) of the knee at a mean follow-up of 4 years: intro-ducing a novel technique

  Background :Pigmented villonodularsynovitis (PVNS) is characterized by the presence of inflammation and hemosiderin deposition in the synovium. Two forms of PVNS distinguished in the literature are diffused and localized involvements. There are controversies in the literature about the surgical management of PVNS. We report our experience in the management of knee PVNS at a mean follow-up of ...

[ 7 ] - Short to Mid-term Outcomes of Single-stage Reconstruction of Multiligament Knee Injury

Background: Multiligament knee injury (MLKI) is a complex orthopedic injury leading to the tear of at least two ofthe major knee ligaments. However, there is no consensus on the optimal management of this debilitating condition.Regarding this, the present study was performed to evaluate the outcomes of single-stage multiligament reconstructionsurgery in patients with MLKI.<br ...
