Osteochondral knee defects typically affect young, active patients, altering knee biomechanics and eventually leading to joint degeneration. There are several treatment methods; one less expensive and potentially effective option is the combination of autologous impaction bone grafting with autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (BG-AMIC). BG-AMI...

Glomus tumors originate from perivascular, temperature-regulating bodies. They are generally located at the fingertips, rarely around the shoulder girdle. This paper reports a deltoid glomus tumor larger in size than ever previously reported. The intramuscular mass, asymptomatic for 10 years, had enlarged to the extent of causing pain. Tumor size a...

Mucormycosis is an opportunistic, aggressive, luckily rare fungal infection that most commonly causes pulmonary, sinoorbital, gastrointestinal, and skin disease [1]. Its incidence is 1.5% among invasive fungal infections [2]. But, the mortality from mucormycosis is significantly high (>30-50%), with disseminated disease accounting for 90% of deaths...

Background Thermography is an industrial method for surface temperature measurements, and although it is medically safe and non-invasive, its place in daily practice has been limited. With the development of technology, thermal cameras have become more accessible and practical via adaptation to mobile phones. Among patients evaluated with bilateral...

Objective All-inside meniscal sutures are frequently the treatment of choice in arthroscopic practice. However, the literature contains limited evidence of the technical issues experienced during the procedure. We aimed to evaluate the technical difficulties encountered during the placement of all-inside meniscal repair sutures according to the sur...

Aim:There are few studies in the literature evaluating the effect of the day of surgery on length of hospital stay. This study evaluates the effect of the day of surgery on the duration of hospitalization in unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in a group of hospitals providing wide-ranging health services and clarifies the implications...

Objectives: This study aims to compare the radiological outcomes of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) performed by a navigation-based robotic system versus Microplasty® instrumentation. Patients and methods: Between January 2018 and January 2019, a total of 90 knees of 75 patients (65 males, 10 females; mean age: 62.0±9.4 years; range, 50...

Many different methods and drain clamping periods have been described in systemic and local tranexamic acid (TXA) applications, and the superiority of the methods to each other has not been clearly demonstrated. The method of local infusion in combined TXA applications may not alter the Hb drop or total or hidden blood loss. We aim to compare two d...

Background: Many surgical techniques have been reported for the treatment of ingrown toenails. Occurrences of infection after matricectomy procedures could cause clinicians to prefer using external braces to treat ingrown toenails. This study compares patients with ingrown toenails who underwent the nail fixation technique and the Winograd techniqu...

Özet: Amaç Dequervain tenosinovitinde konservatif yöntemler fayda sağlamadığında cerrahi tedaviler uygulanmaktadır. Tekniklerin ilerlemesiyle geleneksel açık cerrahiler yerini endoskopik yöntemlere bırakmaktadır.

Objective: The aim of this retrospective study was to identify the amount of TBL and HBL and analyse the risk factors using multivariate linear regression analysis during single-level OTLIF surgery. Methods: In this study 62 patients (32 male, 30 female, mean age 49.22 ± 13.26) who underwent single-level interbody fusion proce dures by a single...

Introduction We aim to asses the diagnostic performance of ankle ultrasonography in patients presenting with acute ankle sprain injury, with comparison to MRI (Manyetik Rezonans İmaging). Materials and methods The study included patients who applied to the hospital within 48 h after an ankle sprain, and who presented with signs of pain, swelling,...

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effect of surgical experience on reliability for Boyd-Griffin, Evans/Jensen, Evans, Orthopaedic Trauma Association (main and subgroups), and Tronzo classification systems. Patients and methods: Between January 2013 and December 2014, radiological images of a total of 60 patients (13 males, 47 females; mea...

Rotator cuff tears are the most common shoulder problem in orthopedics and traumatology practice. Successful results are obtained with surgical treatment in acute traumatic tears and degenerative tears that do not respond to conservative treatment. For the last 20 years, arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs have become the gold standard method for the...

Introduction Restoration of proprioceptive function after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is as important as mechanical stability. For this purpose, remnant of the torn ACL is the only source of nerve endings. Our aim in this study is to investigate the quantity of mechanoreceptors in the remnants ACL stumps in injured knees and to...
