The AAOS has been committed to working with ONC in the adoption of electronic health records. As surgical specialists, we have unique Health Information Technology (HIT) needs and respectfully offer some suggestions to improve interoperability to better reflect the needs of our surgical specialists and their patients and accelerate HIT adoption in the future by orthopaedic surgeons. The AAOS thanks ONC in advance for its solicitation and consideration of the following comments and concerns. We have structured our comments in the order that ONC is soliciting public feedback in the RFI document referenced above. Scope of Measurement: Defining Interoperability and Population The focus of measurement should not be limited to “meaningful Electronic Health Records (EHR) users,” as defined (e.g., eligible professionals, eligible hospitals, and CAHs that attest to meaningful use of certified EHR technology under CMS’ Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs), and their exchange partners.

Treatment options vary according to the location of the cyst, with less invasive procedures such as calcium phosphate cement injection to a joint arthroplasty when there is an extensive cyst in communication with the joint space.

  • Case Report Osteochondral Fracture of the Lateral Femoral Condyle
    Case Report Osteochondral fracture of the Lateral Femoral Condyle involving the entire weight bearing articular surface fixed with biodegradable screws Shah Jehan,1 Mark David Loeffler,2 Hamayon Pervez3 Hull Royal Infirmary, Hull,1 Colchester General Hospital, Colchester,2,3 United Kingdom. Abstract Osteochondral fracture of lateral femoral condyle can result from support and other twisting injuries of the knee. Arthroscopy is a better diagnostic and therapeutic tool as standard radiographs can mislead regarding the size and location of the fragment. If fragment is large and displaced, arthrotomy may become necessary. We present a case of large osteochondral fracture of lateral femoral condyle involving the entire articular surface in Figure-2: Large osteochondral fragment comprising the entire articular surface (left a 12 year old male. This was treated with open reduction side figure) reattached to lateral condyle of femur and fixed with four biodegradable and internal fixation using biodegradable screws. MRI at screws (right side figure). six weeks after surgery showed satisfactory results. After the surgery full weight bearing was allowed at follow up was arranged.

Read Full License Page 1/15 Abstract Purpose Locking plate or screws have been used for Hoffa fractures; however, evidence to support the effectiveness of the procedure remains scarce. The present study aimed to determine the ecacy of distal femur condyle locking plate(DFCLP)alone or in combination with cannulated screws for Hoffa fractures. Methods In this cohort study, 13 patients with isolated Hoffa fractures were enrolled during the study period (May 2014 to February 2019) and retrospectively analyzed. Patients underwent open reduction and internal xation by DFCLP alone or in combination with cannulated screws followed by early active rehabilitation postoperatively. The primary outcome was evaluated with Knee Society Score (KSS), the range of movement (ROM), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scoring system and the stability of the xation site of the patients during the 24-month follow-up period. Results A total of 13 patients completed the 24-month follow-up assessment and achieve bone re-union at Hoffa fracture sites.

The knee joint has been chosen for present study as it represents the largest and functionally important articular unit, provided with an extensive synovial cavity and a variety of both intra and extra articular structures.The knee joint is of peculiar interest as manifesting a change of mechanism of locomotion in passing from tetrapods (Bat) to mammals and affording a means of studying, the corresponding modifications of anatomical structure. 10 bats armiger were selected and 10 human knee joints were selected from dissection hall in Anatomy department of Hi-Tech Medical College, Rourkela (Odisha). McMinn HMR has mentioned (5) that the bat is the only mammal which does not possess the menisci and popliteus muscle because it does not rotate the knee joint. The femorotibial articulation has both internal and external ligamentous connections. There is a single broad intra articular ligament which. may represent the initial form of the crucial ligaments and fibula merged with tibia. In the bat leg, the tibia and fibula are fused together.

  • Anatomy and Physiology of Knee Stability
    Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology Review Anatomy and Physiology of Knee Stability Jawad F. Abulhasan 1,* and Michael J. Grey 2 1 Physiotherapy Department, Shaikhan Al-Faresi Hospital, Kuwait Ministry of Health, Kuwait City 44007, Kuwait 2 Acquired Brain Injury Rehabilitation Alliance, School of Health Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich NR4 7TJ, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +965-6666-7770 Received: 28 June 2017; Accepted: 20 September 2017; Published: 24 September 2017 Abstract: Knee instability has been the focus of large number of studies over the last decade; however, a high incidence rate of injury still exists. The aim of this short report is to examine knee joint anatomy and physiology with respect to knee stability. Knee joint stability requires the integration of a complex set of anatomical structures and physiological mechanism. Compromising any of these structures leads to destabilisation and increased risk of injuries. This review highlights the structure and soft tissue of the knee that contribute to its stability and function. This introduction is part of the Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology’s Special Issue “The Knee: Structure, Function and Rehabilitation”. Keywords: knee; anatomy; stability 1. Introduction Joint instability is a problem from which both athletes and non-athletes suffer, with one of the most common sources of instability being associated with the knee joint. Knee instability has a high incidence rate and has been extensively studied over the last decade. For example, one prospective cohort study conducted over seven consecutive professional football seasons found that injuries due to knee instability was second only to thigh strains (23%), and 18% of all injuries were sustained at the knee joint [1].

  • Bones of the Appendicular Skeleton
    BONES OF THE APPENDICULAR SKELETON The appendicular skeleton is composed of the 126 bones of the appendages and the pectoral and pelvic girdles, which attach the limbs to the axial skeleton. Although the bones of the upper and lower limbs differ in their functions and mobility, they have the same fundamental plan – each limb is composed of three major segments connected by movable joints. LOWER LIMB Thirty-two (32) separate bones form the bony framework of each lower limb. The lower limbs carry the entire weight of the erect body and are subjected to exceptional forces when we jump or run. Thus, it is not surprising that the bones of the lower limb are thicker and stronger than the comparable bones of the upper limb. Each of the lower limb bones may be described regionally as a bone of the pelvic girdle, thigh, leg, or foot (Figure 7). Figure 7: Bones of the lower limb Pelvic (Hip) Girdle (Marieb / Hoehn – Chapter 7; Pgs. 234 – 238) The pelvic girdle is formed by the paired os coxae (coxal bones). Together with the sacrum and coccyx of the axial skeleton, this group of bones forms the bony pelvis. The ability to bear weight is more important in the pelvic girdle than the pectoral girdle. Thus, the os coxae are heavy and massive with a firm attachment to the axial skeleton. Each os coxa is a result of the fusion of three bones: the ilium, ischium, and pubis. These three bones fuse at the deep hemispherical socket, the acetabulum, which receives the femur. Figure 8: Right os coxa, lateral and medial views A.
