Open AccessAssessment of micromotion at the bone-bone interface after coracoid and scapular-spine bone-block augmentation for the reconstruction of critical anterior glenoid bone loss—a biomechanical cadaver study
Glenoid bone loss is among the most important risk factors for recurrent anterior shoulder instability, and a bony reconstruction is recommended in cases of critical bone loss (> 15%). The commonly used surgic...

Open AccessEffect of weightbearing and foot positioning on 3D distal tibiofibular joint parameters
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different loading scenarios and foot positions on the configuration of the distal tibiofibular joint (DTFJ). Fourteen paired human cadaveric lower legs we...

Open AccessInfluence of thread design on anchorage of pedicle screws in cancellous bone: an experimental and analytical analysis
Threads of modern pedicle screws can vary greatly in design. It is difficult to assess which interplay of design features is particularly advantageous for screw anchorage. This study aims to increase the under...

Open AccessRestricted cement augmentation in unstable geriatric midthoracic fractures treated by long-segmental posterior stabilization leads to a comparable construct stability
The goal of this study is to compare the construct stability of long segmental dorsal stabilization in unstable midthoracic osteoporotic fractures with complete pedicle screw cement augmentation (ComPSCA) vers...

Open AccessA standardized approach for exact CT-based three-dimensional position analysis in the distal tibiofibular joint
Assessment of tibiofibular reduction presents an intra- and postoperative challenge. Numerous two-dimensional measurement methods have been described, most of them highly dependent on leg orientation and rater...
