Abstract Objectives Penile implant can be a challenging procedure when cavernosal fibrosis is encountered. In some cases, second incision and more aggressive maneuvers may necessary, such as fibrotic tissue ressection, widening of the corporotomies, grafting in order to close cavernous bodies. Tunneling less invasive technique that allows development space inside body prosthesis. Methods We pre...

PURPOSE To compare clinical and functional outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using cortical button versus transfemoral suspensory fixation. METHODS This systematic review was conducted following the Cochrane handbook guidelines and PROSPERO registration. Only Level I and II randomized controlled trials comparing cortical button and transfemoral suspensory fixation...

Introduction: Spontaneous rupture of tendons and ligaments is common in several species including humans. In horses, degenerative suspensory ligament desmitis (DSLD) an important acquired idiopathic disease a major energy-storing tendon-like structure. DSLD risk increased breeds, the Peruvian Horse. Affected horses have often been used for breeding before apparent. Breed predisposition suggests...

BACKGROUND Animals have been hypothesized to benefit from pendulum mechanics during suspensory locomotion, in which the potential energy of gravity is converted into kinetic energy according to the energy-conservation principle. However, no convincing evidence has been found so far. Demonstrating that morphological evolution follows pendulum mechanics is important from a biomechanical point of ...

To identify the demographics and characteristics of operative acromioclavicular joint separations, as well characterize reconstruction techniques associated complications. The United States Military Health System Data Repository was queried for patients with a Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code coracoclavicular ligament between October 2013 March 2020. Patient demographics, radiology rep...
