Filter by:The objective of this single site, randomized controlled trial is to assess and compare radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who are to undergo lumbar interbody fusion procedures (TLIF), supplemented with pedicle screw instrumentation, using one of the following interventions: 1. Porous titanium cages 2. Non-porous titanium-coated poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) cages.
Background : Segmental spinal instability after a laminectomy, and adjacent segment disease (ASD) at after an arthrodesis, are well-known concerns in spinal surgery, which may require re-interventions, usually by surgical arthrodesis, posing the problem of a new heavy intervention under general anesthesia, in often fragile patients. Trans-facet fixation (TFF) under local anesthesia and double fluoroscopic and CT guidance is a minimally invasive technique involving the placement of screws through the posterior facet joints, improving spinal stability. Purpose : The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy, in terms of pain reduction (VAS) and improvement of daily activities (ODI), of TFF under CT scan guidance in the context of low back pain and/or radiculalgia related to focal instability secondary to laminectomy or ASD. Methods : TFF were performed in 24 patients having a history of spinal surgery such as laminectomy and/or classic surgical arthrodesis and remaining symptomatic, at Nice University Hospital between 2017 and 2021 Pre- and postoperative pain and disability levels were measured using the visual analogue scale (VAS) and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), collected prospectively at systematic 6-month and 1-year follow-up visits. Long term evolution were assessed by phone consultation.
The study population concerns adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis which requires surgical management and who have a longer waiting period of 6 months. The aim of this study is to research the predictive factors of an improvement in the quality of life of adolescents who have had surgery.
Several deformities of the spine exist such as the anterior imbalance. These deformities can generate functional discomfort and limit the patient's quality of life. In the event of severe trunk imbalance and progression of the deformity, operative correction of the spinal deformity by instrumentation and posterior arthrodesis may be indicated. Surgical techniques and instrumentation have evolved over the past 5 years. These changes in surgical strategies have a potential impact on the patient's quality of life and the correction results in the medium and long term. the aim of the study is to analyze the surgical corrections obtained by transpedicular osteotomy and radiological changes over time with classic 2-rod techniques versus modern 4-rod instrumentation techniques
This study reviews if taking ketorolac, after a joint fusion procedure, can decrease the need for taking oxycodone (standard of care) for pain relief. The study also investigates if ketorolac affects bone healing after surgery.
The aim of the proposed study is to define the optimal treatment for Lisfranc fracture-dislocation, either primary arthrodesis (PA) or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), regarding the quality of life, complications, functional outcomes, and cost-effectiveness. The investigators hypothesize that patients will have a better quality of life and fewer complications during follow-up when undergoing a PA for unstable fracture-dislocations in the Lisfranc midfoot joints compared to ORIF. Further, the investigators expect this approach to be more cost-effective than the operative stabilization with retaining the dislocated joints, as patients will be exposed to a reduced number of reinterventions and hospital stay and/or prolonged use of pain medication.
This observational study aims to determine the efficacy and safety of the Shark Screw® transplant for osteotomy and arthrodesis in hand and foot surgery.
The goal of this research study is to determine the change in frontal plane rotation of the 1st metatarsal from pre to post arthrodesis of the 1st TMT joint with the Phantom® Intramedullary Nail combined with a supinating reduction technique. The study hypothesis is that multi-planar correction can be achieved with the Phantom® Intramedullary Nail.
The objective of this project is to obtain prospective, multi-center, long term (10 year) clinical data on the Vanguard Rocc knee prosthesis. Patient and knee function will be collected along with knee stability, the knee motion, functional recuperation, radiographic and survivorship data.
The goal of this research study is to determine if union rates are affected by early weight-bearing after Lapidus Arthrodesis using the Phantom™ Intramedullary Nail. The study hypothesis is that the union rate for those who undergo a Lapidus Arthrodesis procedure with the Phantom™ Intramedullary Nail and participate in an early weight-bearing protocol will be non-inferior to union rates previously published for this procedure.
