This study was to investigate whether the Ability for Basic Movement Scale II (ABMS II) at admission of the convalescent rehabilitation ward (CRW) could predict the ambulation ability in patients after hip fracture surgery. The data of the ABMS II and Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) of 118 postsurgical patients with hip fracture who were trans...

Medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) causes medial meniscus extrusion (MME) and leads to subchondral insufficiency fracture of the knee (SIFK). However, the progression of SIFK after MMPRT pullout repair remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the progression of SIFK and compare clinical outcomes in patients with SIFK to those witho...

The aim of this retrospective study was to identify the preoperative patient-related factors affecting the soft tissue balancing in cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty. This is an important clinical issue, as the acquisition of adequate soft tissue balancing is essential for successful outcomes. The study group included 59 knees treated for ...

Of the anatomical reduction and fixation methods used to treat distal radius fracture, non-bridging external fixation has the advantage of enabling early wrist motion. The surgical technique relies on successful placement of the pin in individual fracture fragments. The present study aimed to identify the safe zone of pin insertion for a non-bridgi...

The degree of fatty infiltration of the rotator cuff muscle is typically evaluated using the Goutallier-Fuchs grading system, but its consistency remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate a new quantified measurement of fatty infiltration based on three-dimensionally reconstructed volumetric data obtained from magnetic resonance images of...

To investigate the effect of the tibial tunnel position on knee stability and the maximum contact area and peak contact pressure on the menisci after double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Ten human knee specimens (mean age: 74.1 ± 15.8 years) were used in this study. The anterior tibial loading test was conducted using a ma...

Tennis elbow is characteristically seen as damage at the extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) on ultrasonography. In this study, damage at the origin of the ECRB was investigated using ultrasonography in elbows without complaints pertaining to the joint. We investigated 282 elbows on the dominant side in volunteers who consented to participate in ...

Graft fixation at quantitative tension using a manual tensioner was advocated in ACL reconstruction, while the measured tension that is based on the surgeon's hand with the tensioner decreases after graft fixation. Therefore, our purpose is to elucidate how effectively the pre-determined graft tension maintained after final fixation of the graft to...

Residual acetabular deficiency after periacetabular reorientation osteotomy can result in suboptimal outcome. The optimal algorithm of acetabular fragment correction to achieve normal anterolateral acetabular coverage is not well characterized. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of residual anterolateral deficiency after lateral ...
