TL;DR: Bilateral posterior interosseous nerve palsy in a rheumatoid patient is described and steroid injection into the elbow may not produce lasting recovery and may lead to unacceptable delay before surgical decompression.
Abstract: Bilateral posterior interosseous nerve palsy in a rheumatoid patient is described. Six previous case reports and our experience indicate that steroid injection into the elbow may not produce lasting recovery and may lead to unacceptable delay before surgical decompression. An anterolateral approach for division of the arcade of Frohse is effective in cases with diffuse synovitis; where there is a local cystic swelling a posterolateral approach provides better access. Good recovery of nerve function can be expected after early operation.

TL;DR: The Oxford medial unicompartmental knee replacement appears to produce near-normal patellofemoral mechanics, which may partly explain the low incidence of complications with the extensor mechanism associated with clinical use.
Abstract: The Oxford medial unicompartmental knee replacement was designed to reproduce normal mobility and forces in the knee, but its detailed effect on the patellofemoral joint has not been studied previously. We have examined the effect on patellofemoral mechanics of the knee by simultaneously measuring patellofemoral kinematics and forces in 11 cadaver knee specimens in a supine leg-extension rig. Comparison was made between the intact normal knee and sequential unicompartmental and total knee replacement. Following medial mobile-bearing unicompartmental replacement in 11 knees, patellofemoral kinematics and forces did not change significantly from those in the intact knee across any measured parameter. In contrast, following posterior cruciate ligament retaining total knee replacement in eight knees, there were significant changes in patellofemoral movement and forces. The Oxford device appears to produce near-normal patellofemoral mechanics, which may partly explain the low incidence of complications with the extensor mechanism associated with clinical use.

TL;DR: In unstable fractures that are unable to support tibial load at the fracture, the peak amplitudes of cyclic movement were as great as those reported for fractures stabilized by plaster casts, and were approximately twice the movement of the stable fractures simulating early healing.

TL;DR: Anomalous variations of abductor digiti minimi are commonly found at Guyon's canal but rarely cause ulnar nerve compression, so a case with particular emphasis on the effectiveness of ultrasound to detect and delineate anatomical structures in this region is reported.
Abstract: Anomalous variations of abductor digiti minimi are commonly found at Guyon's canal but rarely cause ulnar nerve compression. We report such a case with particular emphasis on the effectiveness of ultrasound to detect and delineate anatomical structures in this region.

TL;DR: The method of controlled introduction of the TMK has allowed us to assess the significance of a reported problem (clicking) and to provide scientific data from which other surgeons can decide about use of the implant.
Abstract: As part of the step-wise validation of a new prosthesis (TMK), we previously published the 1 year results of a randomised controlled trial in patients undergoing bilateral knee replacement [Price A., Rees J., Beard D., Juszczak E. et al. A mobile-bearing total knee prosthesis compared with a fixed-bearing prosthesis. JBJS B 2003;85-B-1:62-7.]. Forty patients had the new mobile-bearing prosthesis implanted in one knee and an established fixed-bearing device in the other (AGC). We now report the 3 year status of these patients and, in addition, review a separate multi-centre cohort of 172 patients who had undergone unilateral arthroplasty with the TMK. No significant differences were found in outcome (American Knee Society Score and Oxford Knee Score) between the two prostheses. The greater incidence of "clicking" in the mobile-bearing knee, reported in the previous review, persisted (TMK=48%, AGC=30%). The presence of this mechanical noise was found to have no relationship with outcome in either of the prostheses. The unilateral cohort study showed an acceptable complication rate for the new prosthesis, although some patients reported subjective instability. The method of controlled introduction of the TMK, of which this constitutes a further step, has allowed us to assess the significance of a reported problem (clicking) and to provide scientific data from which other surgeons can decide about use of the implant.
