Abstract Introduction: Arachnoid cysts are developmental cystic lesions which may be found as an incidental finding on neuroimaging or present with symptoms of headache, seizure and neurologic deficit. Presentation with seizure is more common with larger sizes and temporal location. Presentation with TLE is rare, and fenestration of cysts had variable results for seizure control. Here in, we r...

the aim of this study was to assess different surgical approaches of supracondylar fracture in 31 children.the surgical approches consisted of anteromedial (16 cases),posterior (13 cases) and anterolateral (2 cases). the rate of persistent complications was higher in the posterior approach.the most common complication eas soft tissue atrophy in posterior of elbow (69%) followed by limitation of...

BACKGROUND The Anteromedial Reach Test is a performance-based outcome measure for evaluating dynamic knee stability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament injury. No previously published study has adequately evaluated intrarater or interrater reliability of the Anteromedial Reach Test, so the purpose of this study was to assess these measurement properties in healthy participants prior to ...

Satisfactory selection criteria are essential for the successful outcome of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UCA). We report the frequency of revision of the Oxford medial unicompartmental arthroplasty in knees previously treated for anteromedial osteoarthritis by high tibial osteotomy (HTO). The combined results from three sources were used to allow statistical analysis of this uncommon sub...

Patellofemoral joint degeneration is often considered a contraindication to medial unicompartmental knee replacement. We examined the validity of this preconception using information gathered prospectively on the intra-operative status of the patellofemoral joint in 824 knees in 793 consecutive patients who underwent Oxford unicondylar knee replacement for anteromedial osteoarthritis. All opera...

Retrieval studies have shown that the use of fully congruent meniscal bearings reduces wear in knee replacements. We report the outcome of 143 knees with anteromedial osteoarthritis and normal anterior cruciate ligaments treated by unicompartmental arthroplasty using fully congruous mobile polyethylene bearings. At review, 34 knees were in patients who had died and 109 were in those who were st...

background:  new discoveries about the pathophysiology changed the concept that all forms of osteoarthritis are alike; this lead to the delineation of different phenotypes such as age, trauma or obese related forms. we aim to compare soluble mediator profiles in primary knee and posttraumatic wrist osteoarthritis. based on the general faster progression rate of wrist osteoarthritis, we hypothes...

Reservoirs are important sites for nitrogen processing, especially those located in agricultural and urban watersheds. Nitrogen inputs promote N2O production emission, but the microbial pathways controlling have been seldom studied reservoir water columns. We determined concentration column of 12 reservoirs during summer stratification winter mixing. explored potential sources sinks by quantify...

The Oxford Partial Knee (Zimmer Biomet, Bridgend, United Kingdom) has been used for the last four decades. Very few products make it to this milestone, not least in the world of medicine with the constant drive for innovation and improvement. The original design concept of John Goodfellow and John O'Connor, a fully congruent mobile meniscal bearing articulating with spherical femoral and flat t...
