TL;DR: Pain control following total knee arthroplasty was found to be better in those patients treated with continuous adductor canal block as compared to those treated with single-shot adductors canal block.

TL;DR: Musculoskeletal tumors are rare, but descriptive data in any region are important in order to reduce mortality and improve treatment, and no significant difference was found between the data of the hospital regarding epidemiology of the musculOSkeletal system tumors and those from the other regions around the world.

TL;DR: Similar clinical results, in terms of stability and subjective measures, can be obtained after ACL reconstruction both with a free quadriceps and a 4-strand hamstring tendons autograft.

TL;DR: MRI showed excellent inter- and intra-observer reliabilities for the evaluation of lateral epicondylitis and common extensor tendinopathy was the most common accompanying finding and degree of RCL/LUCL injuries positively correlated with degree of CET injuries.

TL;DR: Interestingly females tended to increase their toe and forefoot plantar pressures compared to males by increasing age, suggesting that gender and age impact on toes plantar pressure alterations in early adolescence may be a possible risk factor for further foot impairments.

TL;DR: The best available evidence demonstrated that SB and DB techniques could yield similar efficacy for ACL reconstruction, and no superiority was founded in DB ACL reconstruction with a minimal 5-year follow-up.

TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the locking plate fixation for the complex intra-articular distal radius fractures provides better results for the grip strength and radiographic parameters than cast immobilization in patients ≥60 years old, while no difference was found between the clinical and functional results.

TL;DR: Topical administration of tranexamic acid reduces intraoperative and postoperative blood loss in acetabular fracture surgery, decreasing transfusion rates.

TL;DR: MFx and cell-free HA-based scaffold combination appear to be a safe and efficient technique that provide good clinical outcomes for lesions deeper than 7 mm.

TL;DR: In patients undergoing TKA a preoperative screening and decolonization protocol for S. aureus nasal carriers, using mupirocin nasal ointment and chlorhexidine soap, is an effective measure to reduce the rate of SSI caused by this microorganism.

TL;DR: Orthopedic surgeons were found not to be adequately trained about use and risks of fluoroscopy and also not to been equipped about methods for preventing radiation damage.

TL;DR: Hook plate fixation plus CC tape augmentation may prevent subacromial osteolysis and yield better short-term functional outcomes.

TL;DR: Percutaneous fixation of tarsometatarsal joint injuries is a relatively simple and safe method of treatment, leading to a good functional outcome, especially for Myerson type B as well as for fracture dislocation type of injuries, provided that an anatomical reduction has been achieved.

TL;DR: The Turkish TCMS appears to be a suitable evaluation tool to assess the qualitative performance of trunk control and sitting balance for children with CP and it gives opportunity to use clinically and research purposes.

TL;DR: A prevalence study with the largest population in the literature concerning ED shows that ED is not as uncommon as previously thought and should be especially suspected in females and older age groups.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the new KSS is a valid and reliable questionnaire which can be used in evaluating the pre and post-operative Turkish speaking TKA patients.

TL;DR: Evaluating the clinical and radiological results of the surgical treatment of acetabular fractures using modified Stoppa approach shows that satisfactory results can be obtained, even in bilateral fractures with vertical midline incision.

TL;DR: The results indicate that USG is an accurate and reliable imaging technique for the measurement of THP in the diagnosis of plantar fasciitis and the heel pad was thinner in the painful heels of patients with plantar FASciitis.

TL;DR: GCT can be confused with other tumor or tumor-like lesions involving giant cells and secondary changes such as fibrohistiocytic or aneurysmal bone cyst-like components and coagulation necrosis were frequently seen in conventional giant cell tumor of bone.

TL;DR: In a clinical setting, tantalum cup seems to provide a good stability due to the integration of the trabecular metal to the underline cancellous bone, which proposes the use of tantalum cups in irradiated bone.

TL;DR: RFA is an out-patient procedure that patients can be mobilized immediately after the procedure and can be safely used as a first choice of treatment method in OO therapy.

TL;DR: The number of articles in predatory journals is increasing all over the world and this situation also valid in the field of Orthopaedics and Traumatology in Turkey so authors should pay attention regarding predatory journals.

TL;DR: Open reduction and lateral plating with wiring as a treatment for Vancouver B2 periprosthetic femoral fractures produced good radiologic outcomes with successful bony union, and ORIF can be considered the alternative option for treating patients withancouver B2 PPF, instead of stem revision surgery.

TL;DR: The combined administration of IV and topical TXA compared with IV alone can decrease total blood loss and the number of blood transfusions required without increasing the risk of DVT or/and PE in total hip arthroplasty.

TL;DR: It is suggested that patient-specific instrumentation provided significantly better mechanical alignment compared to conventional TKR for the frequency of outlier cases with malalignment beyond 3°, and PSI proved no significant difference when the groups were compared for mFTA, FCA and TCA.

TL;DR: Osteolysis was common around bioabsorbable anchors used for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, and it also occurred around the PEEK-type nonabsorbables anchors.

TL;DR: With the prerequisite of good alignment with robust medial cortical support and untouched soft tissue over medial metaphysis area via intra-osseous reduction, comminution of proximal humeral fracture can achieve satisfactory result and low complication rate by osteosynthesis with locking plate system, regardless of age.

TL;DR: The interspinous ligaments/ligamentum flavum combination and supraspinous ligament are the largest contributor to resisting applied compression moments in the sheep thoracic and lumbar spine.

TL;DR: Because revision of tibial plateau fracture malunion caused by failure of initial treatment is difficult, it is necessary to create a detailed surgical plan before the operation to ensure satisfaction if the correct revision strategy is used.

TL;DR: One portal endoscopic assisted release of the extensor compartment is an effective and safe minimal invasive procedure with similar complication rates reported previously in open and endoscopic procedures in patients with de Quervain's disease who are unresponsive to non-operative treatments.
