Introduction

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a successful procedure alleviating pain in patients with debilitating arthritis. Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication following surgery and is managed with intermittent or continued urinary catheterization. POUR has been estimated in retrospective literature to be on the order of 5% – 70% of surgical cases with early catheter removal or without a catheter. At our institution, and based on a Level 1 study here, urinary catheter is not used routinely in patients undergoing THA under regional anesthesia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of POUR and risk …


The Hand In Art: Hand Of Hope, John S. Taras, MD 2014 Thomas Jefferson University

The Hand In Art: Hand Of Hope, John S. Taras, Md

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Faculty Papers

The “Hand of Hope” (Fig. 1) statue was commissioned for display in the street-level lobby of my practice, The Philadelphia Hand Center, by its founders, James M. Hunter, MD, and Lawrence H. Schneider, MD. The work became a hallmark of the practice’s former Walnut Street location as well as a recognizable feature of its neighborhood.

After a sojourn of several years residing next to Thomas Eakins’ portrait of the operative theatre in “The Gross Clinic,” at Thomas Jefferson University, the sculpture has returned to grace our office’s lobby in the historic Benjamin Franklin Hotel.


Stress Sonography Of The Ulnar Collateral Ligament Of The Elbow In Professional Baseball Pitchers: A 10-Year Study., Michael G Ciccotti, Alfred Atanda, Levon N. Nazarian, Christopher C Dodson, Laurens Holmes, Steven B. Cohen 2014 Thomas Jefferson University

Stress Sonography Of The Ulnar Collateral Ligament Of The Elbow In Professional Baseball Pitchers: A 10-Year Study., Michael G Ciccotti, Alfred Atanda, Levon N. Nazarian, Christopher C Dodson, Laurens Holmes, Steven B. Cohen

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Faculty Papers

BACKGROUND: An injury to the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) of the elbow is potentially career threatening for elite baseball pitchers. Stress ultrasound (US) of the elbow allows for evaluation of both the UCL and the ulnohumeral joint space at rest and with stress.

HYPOTHESIS: Stress US can identify morphological and functional UCL changes and may predict the risk of a UCL injury in elite pitchers.

STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3.

METHODS: A total of 368 asymptomatic professional baseball pitchers underwent preseason stress US of their dominant and nondominant elbows over a 10-year period (2002-2012). Stress US examinations …


High Variability In Outcomes Of Two-Stage Exchange To Treat Periprosthetic Joint Infection, Benjamin Zmistowski, BS, Paul Lichstein, MD, Aaron H Carter, MD, Joshua J. Minori, DO, Javad Parvizi, MD 2014 Rothman Institute of Orthopaedics at the Thomas Jefferson University

Rothman Institute Conference Posters

Introduction:

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a challenging condition to manage with sobering morbidity and mortality.1,2 Treatment options range from simple irrigation and debridement with prosthetic retention to explantation and placement of a temporary cement spacer. Indictations for each option are unclear and non-uniform despite signi­cant efforts to understand the management outcomes. Until recently, a uniform de­nition of success was unavailable, thus clouding the discussion of treatment options. Two-stage exchange is currently considered the “gold-standard” in North America, yet an appropriate understanding of the actual success and ancillary effects of treatment is needed. With the advantage of an expert opinion …

Efficacy Of A Novel Examination Maneuver In Diagnosing Meniscal Pathology, Eric J. Freeh, Ryan Lurtsema 2014 University of New Mexico

Efficacy Of A Novel Examination Maneuver In Diagnosing Meniscal Pathology, Eric J. Freeh, Ryan Lurtsema

UNM Orthopaedic Research Journal

In this retrospective study we examine the effectiveness of the here named “Twist test” in diagnosing meniscal pathology. In preparation for this study, a literature review was conducted to look at commonly used “gold standard” exam maneuvers utilized in the diagnosis of meniscal lesions. The data from these studies was used as comparisons against the twist test. Medical records of patients who underwent knee arthroscopy from the 2013 calendar year were pulled and assessed for positive or negative Twist test results. These results were then correlated with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and more definitively, arthroscopic findings. With this data, we …
