Introduction In this study, our aim was to examine the relationship between the arthroplasty surgeons’ experience level and their aptitude to adjust the cable tension to the value recommended by the manufacturer when asked to provide fixation with cables in artificial bones that underwent extended trochanteric osteotomy (ETO). Materials and Methods A custom-made cable tensioning device with a microvoltmeter was used to measure the tension values in Newtons (N). An ETO was performed on 4 artificial femur bones. Surgeons at various levels of experience attending the IXth National Arthroplasty Congress were asked to fix the osteotomized fragment using 1.7-mm cables and the tensioning device. The participants’ demographic and experience data were investigated and recorded. The surgeons with different level of experience repeated the tensioning test 3 times and the average of these measurements were recorded. Results In 19 (35.2%) of the 54 participants, the force applied to the cable was found to be greater than the 490.33 N (50 kg) value recommended by the manufacturer. No statistically significant difference was determined between the surgeon’s years of experience, the number of cases, and the number of cables used and the tension applied over the recommended maximum value ( P = .475, P = .312, and P = .691, respectively). Conclusions No significant relationship was found between the arthroplasty surgeon’s level of experience and the adjustment of the cable with the correct tension level. For this reason, we believe that the use of tensioning devices with calibrated tension gauges by orthopedic surgeons would help in reducing the number of complications that may occur due to the cable.

The authors report the surgical treatment of an extensive right frontal sinus osteoma assisted by neuronavigation and reconstruction by a hydroxyapatite custom-made implant. The patient presents with ptosis, hypoglobus, and proptosis of the right eye, without any visual impairment. Computed tomographic (CT) scan showed a very large bony mass involving right frontal sinus and displacing the orbital roof. A stereolithographic model–guided planning was carried out to obtain a practical simulation of the surgical operation and it was submitted to a new CT scan to acquire the reference point to realize the neuronavigation assistance, and to achieve the template to realize the hydroxyapatite custom-made implant. Intraoperatively, with the help of neuronavigation assistance, osteotomies were performed by piezoelectric device. The reconstruction was made using a hydroxyapatite custom-made implant. The procedure was damage free, the bony mass was excised, and the orbital roof was repaired without any adverse effects. Postsurgical CT scan and scintigraphy showed a good reconstruction and a good-quality osteoblasts activity on the borders of the implant. Osteoma is a benign slow-growing bone tumor, usually involving the frontal sinus. Navigational assistance offers a very important help to perform safe osteotomies. Hydroxyapatite custom-made implant seems to be an excellent reconstructive method.

Abstract. Although management paradigms for certain arterial trauma, such as aortic injuries, have moved towards an endovascular approach, the application of endovascular techniques for the treatment of peripheral arterial injuries continues to be debated. In the realm of peripheral vascular trauma, popliteal arterial injuries remain a devastating condition with significant rates of limb loss. Expedient management is essential and surgical revascularization has been the gold standard. Initial clinical assessment of vascular injury is aided by readily available imaging techniques such as duplex ultrasonography and high resolution computed tomographic angiography. Conventional catheter based angiography, however, remain the gold standard in the determination of vascular injury. There are limited data examining the outcomes of endovascular techniques to address popliteal arterial injuries. In this review, we examine the imaging modalities and current approaches and data regarding endovascular techniques for the management popliteal arterial trauma.
