This study aims to identify various criteria which can affect the Functional outcome of acute and chronic medial meniscus repair done by arthroscopic surgery associated knee injuries seen with damage meniscus. is a retrospective in Civil Hospital Ahmedabad for patients operated 2016-2017 calendar year, inclusion exclusion criteria’s have been listed. Assessment using Tegner Lysholm score.

conclusions the odscp has many advantages over the other type of plates. it can help the surgeon to operate with a relaxed mind and it is advisable for high tibial medial open wedge osteotomies. results the mean follow-up time was 9.33 ± 1.87 month. the average age was 45.13 ± 7.25 years. three patients were male and 13 patients were female. the lysholm score showed a significant difference bef...

background: no uniform consensus exists to decide type of fixation for arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. hypothsis: there is similar functional outcome after rigid fix compared to other methods of fixation which has been published. study design: retrospective observational study. methods: a total of 50 patients underwent arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstructi...

Background & Aims: This study was performed to compare the effects of open and closed chain terminal knee extension exercises on onset latency of vastus medialis obliques (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL), pain and function in subjects diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Methods: In a pretest and posttest 5-week intervention study, 26 subjects diagnosed with PFPS and 13 healthy su...

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...

Results: The mean Lysholm score improved from 45.6 (range, 11-76) to 71.9 (range, 30-91). The median preoperative Tegner activity scale score was 3 (range, 1-7), while the median postoperative score was 4 (range, 1-9). The median Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) total score improved from 38 (range, 1-57) preoperatively to 6 postoperatively (range, 0-52). The mea...

Results: The mean follow-up period was 22 ± 4.31 months. All the fracture united in a mean time of 7.6 ± 1.28 weeks. The average knee flexion was 134.10 ± 7.61 and 0.5° for extension. The mean Lysholm knee score was 94.5 ± 5.7. No major complications, cosmetic, or hardware problem. Conclusions: The use of crossing screws simplifies fracture fixation, is mini-invasive, and provides stability eno...

the aim of this study is to compare three modes of femoral fixation, namely aperfix, rigidfix and endobutton, in anterior cruciate ligament (acl) reconstruction. 120 patients were randomly assigned to three groups, each consisting of 40 patients, and each group was treated by one of the above mentioned methods of femoral fixation. all patients were examined prior to and 24 months after surgery,...
