Should the diameter of the proximal femoral nail be large enough to fill the canal in the treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fracture in patients over fifty?
PurposeMany studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of nail shape, design, or length on the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures....

Does the intramedullary femoral canal plug reduce blood loss during total knee arthroplasty?
IntroductionThe benefit of the femoral canal bone plug during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in reducing blood loss has never been proven. The aim of...

Single-injection nerve blocks for total knee arthroplasty: femoral nerve block versus femoral triangle block versus adductor canal block—a randomized controlled double-blinded trial
IntroductionFemoral nerve block (FNB) is a well-established analgesic technique for TKA. However, it associates quadriceps weakness. Therefore,...

Is Posterior Femoral Neck Cortex an Obstacle in Achieving Sagittal Plane Balance of Uncemented Straight Femoral Stem?
Summary of Background DataThere is a paucity of the literature that aims to improve sagittal plane balance of femoral stem in hip arthroplasty. We...

Outcome comparison of femoral nerve block and adductor canal block during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: adductor canal block may cause an unexpected decrease in knee flexor strength at 6 months postoperatively
IntroductionPeripheral nerve blocks are frequently used in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. While femoral nerve block (FNB) has been...

Application of ultrasound-guided single femoral triangle and adductor canal block in arthroscopic knee surgery: a prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical study
PurposeTo compare the difference in analgesic effect between femoral triangle block (FTB) and adductor canal block (ACB) during arthroscopic knee...
-
A comparative study between continuous epidural analgesia, ultrasound guided continuous femoral nerve block (CFNB), and ultrasound guided continuous adductor canal block (ACB) for post-operative pain management after total knee replacement (TKR)
BackgroundTotal knee replacement (TKR) is considered a prevailing cause of severe postoperative pain and discomfort among orthopedic surgeries,...

Comparison of three methods for sealing of the intramedullary femoral canal during total knee arthroplasty; a randomized controlled trial
PurposeThe purpose of this randomized controlled study was to examine the effect of sealing the intramedullary canal with a bone or cement plug or...
-
Ultrasound-guided adductor canal block is superior to femoral nerve block for early postoperative pain relief after single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring autograft
PurposeThis study aimed to compare the combination of a lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) block with a femoral nerve block (FNB) and an adductor...
-
Effect of bone cement sealing of the intramedullary femoral canal on coagulation status after total knee arthroplasty: a retrospective thromboelastography study
BackgroundThe main objective of this study was to investigate whether the use of bone cement in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has an effect on...

A New Concept of Using Femoral Condyles Surface for Femoral Component Alignment During Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Technical Note
BackgroundOrthopedic surgeons favor an intramedullary guiding system on the femoral component during total knee arthroplasty (TKA); nevertheless,...
