After anterior cruciate ligamentoplasty, anterior knee pain, sensibility and muscular strength deficits are one of the most important variables affecting the final result on a well positioned neo-ligament, being this outcomes intrinsically related to the type and location of the graft utilized Após ligamentoplastia do cruzado anterior, a dor anterior do joelho e o défice de força muscular e sensitivo são das m...
INTRODUCTION: The wrist arthrodesis has become a well-established procedure on the treatment of various diseases that affect the radiocarpal joint with the objective of pain relief and restoration of joint stability, allowing a recovery of gripping function and lifestyle. OBJECTIVES: Evaluate the functional outcomes of wrist arthrodesis in patients with advanced symptomatic inflammatory or degenerative arthriti...
INTRODUCTION: In 1963, based on biomechanics studies, Maquet proposed the advancement of the patellar tendon insertion as a mean of treating patellofemoral pain. The rationale for this procedure was a reduction in the patellofemoral compression force vector by changing the angular relationship between patella tendon and quadriceps tendon. One of the additional procedures, on a malalign knee, was performing a cu...
Para o êxito da reconstrução do LCA contribuem factores tão diversos como técnica cirúrgica, posicionamento dos túneis, meios de fixação e tipo de plastia entre outros. Durante muito tempo a utilização da plastia osso-tendão-osso (OTO) foi o padrão, mas o recurso a plastia dos tendões do semi-tendinoso e gracilis (ST-G) têm mostrado grande valia, embora o consenso esteja longe de ser encontrado. Neste trabalho ...
A complexidade de forças geradas a nível da articulação patelo-femoral foi ilustrada por Maquet (1963). Este propôs uma cirurgia (avanço da tuberosidade anterior da tíbia) em que diminuía a força resultante a nível patelo-femoral e femoro-tibial. Mal amada pelas complicações (2 a 59%), acabou por ser abandonada. Este trabalho pretende avaliar os resultados funcionais e radiológicos a longo prazo de modo a deter...
Coventry, Maquet e outros demonstraram que as osteotomias da tíbia proximal são uma opção no tratamento da gonartrose unicompartimental. Com o avanço no desenho protésico e instrumentais mais precisos, a Artroplastia Total do Joelho (ATJ) é hoje o tratamento de eleição da pangonartrose sintomática. Contudo, o tratamento da artrose medial ou lateral combinada com artrose patelo-femoral, em estadios iniciais e em...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Fabry disease is an X-linked monogenic disorder caused by mutations in the GLA gene. Recent data suggest that stroke in young adults may be associated with Fabry disease. We aimed to ascertain the prevalence of this disorder among young adult patients with stroke in Portugal by GLA genotyping. METHODS: During 1 year, all patients aged 18 to 55 years with first-ever stroke, who were admit...
