    Total Ankle Replacement Find out why the Exactech Ankle may be right for you. UNDERSTANDING ANKLE REPLACEMENT This brochure offers a brief overview of ankle anatomy, arthritis and ankle replacement. This information is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace the expert guidance of your physician. Please direct any questions or concerns you may have to your doctor. 02 ANKLE ARTHRITIS YOUR ANKLE Your ankle is made up of a variety of bones, ligaments, tendons and cartilage that connect at the junction of your leg and foot. The joint works like a hinge and is responsible for moving your foot up and down. The tibia (shinbone), talus and fibula (smaller bone in the lower leg) are the bones that construct the ankle joint. Your ligaments border these bones on either side, holding them together to provide stability. Meanwhile the tendons connect the muscles to the bone and are responsible for the ankle and toe movements. Covering your bones is a smooth substance called cartilage, which acts as a cushion to reduce the friction between your bones as they move. If your cartilage wears down, arthritis can develop and cause loss of motion and pain. TIBIA FIBULA TALUS CALCANEUS METATARSAL V 03 ARTHRITIC ANKLE HEALTHY ANKLE Nearly half of individuals over the age of 60 have foot or ankle arthritis. 04 ARTHRITIS Nearly half of individuals over the age of 60 have foot or ankle arthritis that may not cause symptoms.1 However, for those suffering from ankle arthritis pain the most reported causes are:2 • Rheumatoid arthritis - It is an autoimmune disease that attacks multiple joints and typically starts in the hands and feet.

  • Airway Obstruction After Biopsy by Cervical Mediastinoscopy in a Patient with a Mediastinal Mass -A Case Report
    Korean J Anesthesiol 2012 July 63(1): 65-67 Case Report http://dx.doi.org/10.4097/kjae.2012.63.1.65 Airway obstruction after biopsy by cervical mediastinoscopy in a patient with a mediastinal mass -A case report- Yong-Cheol Lee2, Sang-Jin Park1, and In-seong Kim1 Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, 1College of Medicine, Yeungnam University, 2School of Medicine, Keimyung University, Daegu, Korea Biopsy, using mediastinoscopy is commonly employed for accurate histologic diagnosis of a mediastinal mass. However, since the mass is not removed during the procedure, it may cause compression of vital structures such as major airways, the heart, the pulmonary artery, and the superior vena cava after surgery. We observed a case of a 66-year-old man with a mediastinal mass that caused severe airway obstruction during recovery from anesthesia following mediastinoscopic biopsy, probably caused by upper airway edema which seemed to originate from compression of the superior vena cava. Therefore, we suggest that unexpected airway obstruction in a patient with a mediastinal mass can be due to superior vena cava compression. (Korean J Anesthesiol 2012; 63: 65-67) Key Words: Airway obstruction, Mediastinoscopy, Superior vena cava. Biopsies, using mediastinoscopy are commonly utilized Case Report to decide on the treatment of mediastinal masses.

  • Laparoscopy in Emergency Hernia Repair
    Review Article Page 1 of 11 Laparoscopy in emergency hernia repair George P.C. Yang Department of Surgery, Hong Kong Adventist Hospital, Hong Kong, China Correspondence to: George Pei Cheung Yang, FRACS. Department of Surgery, Hong Kong Adventist Hospital, 40 Stubbs Road, Hong Kong, China. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Minimal access surgery (MAS) or laparoscopic surgery has revolutionized our surgical world since its introduction in the 1980s. Its benefits of faster recovery, lesser wound pain which in turn reduced respiratory complications, allows earlier mobilization, minimize deep vein thrombosis, minimize wound infection rate are well reported and accepted. It also has significant long-term benefits which are often neglected by many, such as reduced risk of incisional hernia and lesser risk of intestinal obstruction from post-operative bowel adhesion. The continuous development and improvement in laparoscopic equipment and instruments, together with the better understanding of laparoscopic anatomy and refinement of laparoscopic surgical techniques, has enable laparoscopic surgery to evolve further. The evolution allows its application to include not only elective conditions, but also emergency surgical conditions. Performing laparoscopy and laparoscopic procedure under surgical emergencies require extra cautions. These procedures should be performed by expert in these fields together with experienced supporting staffs and the availability of appropriate equipment and instruments. Laparoscopic management for emergency groin hernia conditions has been reported by centers expert in laparoscopic hernia surgery. However, laparoscopy in emergency hernia repair includes a wide variety of meanings. Often in the different reports series one will see different meanings for laparoscopic repair and open conversion when reading in details.

PAGE 2 Understanding Your Joints: How, when and why joint pain occurs Healthy joints aren’t just necessary for performing the physical activities we enjoy. They are the mechanical instruments that make virtually every movement possible. When our joints begin to succumb to years of natural wear and tear or degenerative conditions like arthritis, even the most common movements — like walking or climbing stairs — can become painful. Left untreated, joint pain can be potentially debilitating, severely diminishing one’s quality of life. New hope for joint pain Here’s the good news: it is possible to significantly reduce joint pain. Medical advancements in joint surgery have come a long way, particularly partial and total joint replacement.

    Thorax: first published as 10.1136/thx.24.5.585 on 1 September 1969. Downloaded from Thorax (1969), 24, 585. Mediastinoscopy: A clinical evaluation of 400 consecutive cases C. L. SARIN1 AND H. C. NOHL-OSER From the Thoracic Surgical Unit, Harefield Hospital, Harefield, Middlesex Mediastinoscopy was carried out in 400 cases, including 296 of bronchogenic carcinoma. At the time of presentation the new growth had already spread to involve the mediastinal lymph nodes in slightly more than 50% of these. The incidence of involvement was 76% in oat-cell and 35% in squamous-cell carcinoma. Non-resectability at thoracotomy was encountered in seven out of 120 patients. We advocate this procedure in every case of bronchogenic carcinoma which is considered operable on other counts. In patients in whom the mediastinal lymph nodes are invaded by growth we prefer radical radiotherapy to surgery, as the long-term survival of the two methods is comparable. This procedure may be the only source of positive histological proof of diagnosis, not only in carcinoma but in other types of intrathoracic disease. We believe that this procedure reduces the number of unnecessary exploratory thoracotomies. Carlens (1959) introduced diagnostic exploration sible. Biopsy in such cases can be obtained from tissues inside the thoracic inlet. in the of the superior mediastinum. The space explored just Bleeding, copyright. is part of the superior mediastinum which is presence of incipient or developed superior vena caval of the obstruction, or dense fibrosis of the pre-tracheal situated around tihe intrathoracic part fascia, can make the procedure difficult or impossible.
