Functional rehabilitation after transfemoral amputation : Shaft prosthesis or endo-exo prosthesis?
Unfallchirurg. 2022 Feb 25. doi: 10.1007/s00113-022-01148-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: After transfemoral amputation a prosthesis is required to restore autonomous standing and bipedal locomotion. Attachment of the prosthesis can be achieved either classically via socket suspension with a shaft in the stump or directly via implantation of an intramedullary transcutaneous femoral prosthesis (osseointegrated prosthesis).AIM: A fully instrumented gait analysis should enable objectification of the anticipated advantages of the EEP with respect to the gait pattern and individual mobility.MATERIAL AND METHODS: In...

Targeted muscle reinnervation and targeted sensory reinnervation : Role of complex neurotization after amputation
Unfallchirurg. 2022 Feb 23. doi: 10.1007/s00113-022-01151-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn association with major amputations of the upper and lower extremities, surgical procedures with nerve transfer are increasingly being introduced. In order to examine the value of these procedures the currently available data were analyzed and related to the corresponding insights from conventional amputation surgery as well as confirmed aspects of microsurgery of peripheral nerves. Mainly retrospective observations of low case numbers and sometimes individually different surgical approaches can be found. Risk analysis and sufficie...

Anterior intraosseous dislocation of the tibialis posterior muscle tendon : A case report
We report the case of a 69-year-old female patient who sustained a traumatic anterior dislocation of the tibialis posterior muscle tendon. A computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated an osseous avulsion of the flexor retinaculum with the tendon dislocated underneath it. The patient underwent surgical exploration with reduction of the tendon to its anatomical position and screw fixation of the avulsed fragment. The postoperative course showed pain-free mobility and no signs of tibial posterior muscle tendon insufficiency.PMID:35179612 | DOI:10.1007/s00113-022-01152-5 (Source: Der Unfallchirurg)

Arthrodesis vs. prosthesis for end-stage osteoarthritis of the ankle joint : A scientific argument
Unfallchirurg. 2022 Feb 17. doi: 10.1007/s00113-022-01145-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe gold standard in operative treatment of end-stage ankle osteoarthritis remains controversial even now. Endoprosthetic treatment, which has undergone significant improvements in recent years competes with arthrodesis, which can achieve excellent results particularly in the arthroscopically assisted technique. Both procedures offer specific advantages and disadvantages so that the decision about indications for treatment should always be made individually, taking specific needs and the individual constellation of findings of the pa...

Hematogenous osteomyelitis due to clavicular fracture : A rare complication after conservative treatment
We present a case of a nondislocated clavicular fracture that was conservatively treated for 4 weeks with a sling. The patient was a smoker and suffered from type 2 diabetes mellitus. After 2 months a suppurative infection occurred due to an escalation based on a clavicular osteomyelitis. Through antibiotic treatment and an aggressive surgical approach the infection was cured but ended up with a painful malunion of the clavicle. The bone reconstruction was achieved with a long locking plate with an additional vascularized medial femoral condyle free flap. After 18 months the patient was subjectively very satisfied with the...

3D printing in spinal surgery-Update
Unfallchirurg. 2022 Feb 17. doi: 10.1007/s00113-022-01150-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe technique of 3D printing offers a high potential for further optimization of spinal surgery. This new technology has been published for different areas in the field of spinal surgery, e.g. in preoperative planning, intraoperative use as well as to create patient-specific implants. For example, it has been demonstrated that preoperative 3‑dimensional visualization of spinal deformities is helpful in planning procedures. Moreover, insertion of pedicle screws seems to be more accurate when using individualized templates to guide t...
