TL;DR: Treatment of an injured/degenerating disc with cells, cells plus biomaterial or biomaterial alone has a potential for at least a partial regeneration of the disc, but so far, none of the treatments is able to effectively restore the properties of a healthy disc.

TL;DR: The autologous ipsilateral circular pillar fibula augmentation in tibiotalocalcaneal retrograde nail arthrodesis combined with a ventral (anterior) plate provided good clinical and radiologic outcomes, and the fixation construct is recommended as an alternative to structural allografts or metallic bone grafts for revision ankle surgery with severe bone loss.

TL;DR: The purposes of this study were to list possible indications and contraindications for total ankle replacement, describe the standard ventral surgical approach, present a new 3-component and anatomic total ankle prosthesis (HINTEGRA), and show its clinical and radiologic outcome.

TL;DR: Mid‐term results of TAR in patients with VWD are encouraging, and all categories of SF‐36 score showed significant improvement in quality of life, however, longer term outcomes are necessary to fully understand the clinical benefit of TARI.

TL;DR: The results lead to the conclusion that joint instability may promote an inflammatory intraarticular milieu, thereby contributing to the development of OA.
