Introduction. Bicompartmental knee arthroplasty (BKA) addresses combined medial and patellofemoral compartment osteoarthritis, which is relatively common, and has been proposed as a bridge between unicompartmental and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Case Presentation. We present the case report of a young active man treated with BKA after unsuccessful conservative therapy. Four years later, loos...

Background: Osteoarthritis is the most common cause of disability in older population. Disability caused by pain and limitations mobility. Total knee arthroplasty, which aims to relieve improve joint function mobility, main surgical alternative this patient population.Aim work: The aim work compare functional radiological outcomes proximal fibular osteotomy medial compartment decompression, wit...

Two methods of periocular anaesthesia (PI and PII) were compared with the traditional retrobulbar block in a prospective study of 450 patients undergoing elective cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation. A solution of local anaesthetic containing equal amounts of 2% lignocaine and 0.5% bupivacaine was used in all the groups. Hyaluronidase (75 IU/10 ml of local anaesthetic solution...

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Primary osteoarthritis of knee is one the most common degenerative conditions associated with disability. With more varus medial compartment and early presentation. High tibial osteotomy (HTO) technically demanding major complication like neurovascular injury, iatrogenic fracture, nonunion. Practically HTO longer bed immobilizat...

INTRODUCTION: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a disabling disorder affecting up to 13% of individuals aged 65 years and older [1]. The medial compartment is most commonly affected. Many researchers suggest contributing biomechanical factors in the development of knee OA include body weight, knee alignment, muscle strength, knee kinematics, and strenuous activities [1-2]. Although gait and mechanica...

BACKGROUND In osteoarthritis (OA) treatment, although chondroitin sulfate (CS) was found in a number of studies using radiography to have a structure-modifying effect, to date CS use is still under debate. A clinical study using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI) is therefore of the utmost importance. Here we report data from a 24-month, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, contr...
