postoperative intussusception in adults is an extremely rare clinical entity. postoperative intussusception caused by a jejunal peritoneal cyst is even rarer. etiopathogenesis of this clinical condition is not well understood. in the given case it seems to be a complication of prolonged contact of a draining tube with bowel. we present a case of postoperative spontaneous intussusception in a 72...

Jejunal diverticular disease is rare and few cases have been documented in the literature. Here we report the first case of a child presenting with a perforated congenital jejunal diverticulum.

We hypothesized that patella eversion during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) reduces early return of active knee extension and flexion, quadriceps muscle strength, and postoperative pain. In 100 conventional TKA knees and 100 minimally invasive TKA (MIS TKA) knees, we compared knee range of motion (ROM), postoperative pain, and quadriceps muscle strength at 1 day, 4 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks...

The bones and soft tissues of the foot act as a shock attenuator and the relative bony motions of the talocrural and subtalar joints are the subject of research interest for their roles in lower extremity pathology. Despite this interest, little information exists on the precise in vivo talocrural and subtalar joint kinematics during dynamic activities. Therefore, the purpose of this study was ...

The contribution of platelets and the vessel wall to the antithrombotic effects of a single intravenous bolus injection of 0.8 mg/kg Fab fragments of the monoclonal antiplatelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antibody 7E3 (7E3-Fab), combined with continuous heparin anticoagulation (100 U/kg bolus and 50 U/kg per hour), was studied in a canine preparation consisting of an everted (inside out) ca...

BACKGROUND The foot and ankle are frequently affected in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). One of the negative consequences of RA on the physical function of patients is a decrease in muscle strength. However, little is known about foot and muscle strength in this population. The aim of the study was to evaluate significant differences in foot and ankle muscle strength between patients w...
