  • Management of Severe Elbow Arthritis in a Young Patient

    Elbow osteoarthritis is occasionally primary and most often post-traumatic. Nonoperative treatment is frequently the best course of action. Available surgical options are governed by the location of cartilage deterioration, bone structure, and preoperative joint instability.

  • Over-the-top triangular fibrocartilage complex repair may be viable option for instability

    The triangular fibrocartilage complex is a critical structure in the wrist that provides stability to the distal radioulnar joint. Injury to the foveal attachment of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) at the distal ulnar head often disrupts the deep fibers of the dorsal and volar radioulnar ligaments, leading to pain with or without distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability. This article describes the arthroscopic inside-out transosseous or "over-the-top" technique to repair the TFCC and presents a case example of this method.

  • Are Topical Anti-Inflammatory Creams Worth the Rub?

    Chronic pain and inflammation can really take a toll on your physical and mental health. Oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen (MotrinĀ®, AdvilĀ®) can help reduce pain and inflammation. But they also carry certain risks for cardiovascular and kidney issues, stroke, bleeding and ulcers when you take them for extended periods of time. Fortunately, there are topical anti-inflammatory creams that offer the same amount of relief with significantly reduced risks.

  • Steps for Treating a Deep Cut Finger

    Treating a deep cut on your finger may require medical help if there is damage to the skin, tendons, ligaments, or bone. Other minor injuries, like shallow paper cuts, can quickly be treated at home with basic first aid.

  • Outcomes and challenges in the surgical treatment of trans-olecranon fracture-dislocations: A case series study

    Transolecranon fracture-dislocations represent a complex subset of elbow injuries characterized by concomitant fractures of the olecranon, coronoid process, and radial head, often associated with posterior dislocation. These injuries pose significant surgical challenges due to their inherent instability and high risk of poor functional outcomes. Despite previous studies describing different fixation techniques, there is no standardized surgical protocol to optimize outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the clinical and functional results of a structured surgical approach in the management of these injuries.
