Article: Il trattamento chirurgico dell’instabilità di caviglia nello sportivo: come, quando e perché
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Ankle sprains can result in chronic instability causing severe working or athletic inabilities. Anatomic or not anatomic techniques are possible to achieve articular stability. Arthroscopy is a less invasive technique with good clinical results and is nowadays used by many surgeons. The aim of this work is to describe lesions, non-surgical treatments and possible surgical techniques.Archivio di Ortopedia e Reumatologia 04/2012; 121(4):6-8. -
Article: Protesizzazione del ginocchio con accesso laterale e distacco della TTA nelle deformità in valgo e nelle displasie della femoro-rotulea: indicazioni, tecnica, risultati, complicanze
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The valgus osteoarthritic knee is challenging technically and numerous methods for creating symmetric flexion and extension gaps during knee arthroplasty have been proposed and no consensus exists about the optimal technique. The medial approach has many disadvantages that include patellar problems and so we adopted a lateral capsular access, with elevation of the tibial tubercle, in 43 knees that have been excellent/good knee scores in 89% with 29 cruciate-retaining TKAs Surgical technique is direct, the lateral release is performed as part of the approach, patello-femoral tracking is optimized, medial blood preserved and fixed external tibial rotation deformities spontaneous correction is an additional benefit. I suggest this technique in: valgus knees> 10°–12° on the mechanical axis or with fixed external tibial rotation deformities or patellar-femoral major disorders or previous longitudinal lateral scars.Archivio di Ortopedia e Reumatologia 04/2012; 120(2):14-17.
