Elmslie-Trillat, Maquet, Fulkerson, Roux Goldthwait, and Other Distal Realignment Procedures for the Management of Patellar Dislocation: Systematic Review and Quantitative Synthesis of the Literature
Umile Giuseppe Longo,Giacomo Rizzello,Mauro Ciuffreda,Mattia Loppini,Angelo Baldari,Nicola Maffulli,Nicola Maffulli,Vincenzo Denaro +7 more
TL;DR: Distal realignment procedures performed alone or in combination with proximal procedures for the management of patellar dislocation have shown good clinical outcomes and a low rate of recurrence highlighting the efficacy of these procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rupture of the Achilles and patellar tendons.
Nicola Maffulli,Jason Wong +1 more
TL;DR: It is felt that, although surgical management plays an important role in restoring continuity in knee extension and in plantar flexion, functional outcome inevitably relies on patient motivation and a well-established physiotherapy regime.
Journal ArticleDOI
Core decompression versus other joint preserving treatments for osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a meta-analysis.
TL;DR: The efficacy and effectiveness of core decompression for ONFH are, at best, no better than other joint preserving strategies in delaying the natural osteonecrosis evolution to HOA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double-bundle arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament: DOES THE EVIDENCE ADD UP?
TL;DR: Despite the enthusiasm of surgeons for the double-bundle technique, reconstruction with a single-b Bundle should remain the standard method for managing deficiency of the anterior cruciate ligament until strong evidence in favour of the use of the doublebundle method is available.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free gracilis tendon graft for reconstruction of chronic tears of the Achilles tendon.
Nicola Maffulli,Filippo Spiezia,Vittorino Testa,Giovanni Capasso,Umile Giuseppe Longo,Vincenzo Denaro +5 more
TL;DR: The long-term results of treatment of chronic tears of the Achilles tendon with free gracilis tendon grafting showed that patients retained good functional results despite permanently impaired ankle plantar flexion strength and decreased calf circumference.
