AimsWhile residual fixed flexion deformity (FFD) in unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) has been associated with worse functional outcomes, limited evidence exists regarding FFD changes. The objective of this study was to quantify FFD changes in patients with medial unicompartmental knee arthritis undergoing UKA, and investigate any correlation with clinical outcomes.MethodsThis study included 136 patients undergoing robotic arm-assisted medial UKA between January 2018 and December 2022.

Total knee arthroplasty relies on accurate balancing of soft tissues and knee alignment to prevent post-operative pain and early loosening. Pre-existing fixed flexion deformity (FFD) and varus and valgus deformity add to the challenge of ligament balancing. This observational retrospective cohort study reviewed the relationship between FFD and valgus/varus knee. Data from computer-assisted knee replacement was collected and analyzed. The FFD and knee alignment were noted before making bone cuts. The results showed that as the valgus deformity increases, there is a trend for FFD to decrease but

Abstract:
The quantitative effects of fixed femoral rotation on the patellofemoral joint were assessed in canines in vitro and in vivo. For the in vitro study, ten canine knees were examined in neutral and 30 degrees of internal and external fixed femoral rotations. Fuji film was inserted into the patellofemoral joint and quadriceps loading was simulated at 60 and 90 degrees of knee flexion. There was significant increase in patellofemoral contact pressures on the contralateral facets of the patella with 30 degrees of fixed femoral rotation at both knee flexion angles (p &lt; 0.05).

We present the case of an 18-year-old woman with a shortened right index finger. The digit was stabilized and lengthened a total of 18 mm by external fixation and iliac bone grafting. A distal interphalangeal fixed flexion deformity of 60° was corrected with external fixation and intermedullary wiring.

Abstract:
Introduction: Conventional management of acute boutonniere deformity usually involves immobilization and typically results in two to four months out of work. Chronic fixed boutonniere often defies any acceptable correction with surgical or nonsurgical efforts. This is likely due to the delicately balanced interwoven but moveable shroud of supportive dense connective tissue at the extrinsic-intrinsic interface, which can adhere to the underlying bony phalanges during immobilization. We propose a safe method for early motion and hand use that can reduce adherence. Methods: An understanding of th

The Anaesthetic management of patients with post burn contracture release poses many problems toanaesthesiologist. Airway management in such cases is still challenging to anaesthesiologist as thecontracture and deformity due to fibrous tissue resulting in non-alignment of oral, pharyngeal andlaryngeal planes, makes laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation very difficult or impossible and thiscan result in many life threatening and serious complications.

A 13-year-old girl with seizure disorder presented with 90º fixed flexion deformity of right elbow. She had history of encephalitis, 2 years ago, from which she recovered completely except for the deformity of the elbow. Plain X-ray revealed extensive ossification of the brachialis muscle from its origin at the lower anterior aspect of the humerus to its insertion at the coronoid process of the ulna. The alkaline phosphatase value was 500 IU. The middle segment of the ossified mass was surgically excised. The mobility of the elbow was restored and she achieved a range of movement between 45–12
