Snapping phenomenon after revisional total knee arthroplasty
In this report, snapping phenomenon after final implantation of revision TKA has been presented. Snapping was caused by adhered iliotibial band (ITB) impinging against the lateral part of femoral component. Fractional lengthening the ITB by puncture resolved the snapping phenomenon. Surgeons should be aware of the presence of such a case which should be identified during operation to avoid secondary operations. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

The reperfusion delay in finger replantation by vein arterialization
Conclusion: The study findings have shown that reperfusion delay is usual during vein arterialization. Failing to understand it would result in the premature endings of the procedure. It is worth maintaining further observation, thus rescue otherwise possibly abandoned replantation. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Analysis of staged treatment for gustilo anderson IIIB/C open tibial fractures
Conclusion: Staged treatment was safe and effective for Gustilo Anderson IIIB/C tibial fractures. The timing for the placement of internal and external fixators and choosing the appropriate skin flap repair technique are important. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Gustilo IIIB open tibial fractures: An analysis of infection and nonunion rates
Conclusion: High-energy open tibia fractures required an average of 8.5 months to heal and delayed or nonunion at an earlier juncture cannot be assumed. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Incidence, risk factors, and management of infection following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery
Conclusion: The incidence of infection was 1.2% (17/1468). The step-ladder approach of differentiating between aseptic effusion and infection and accordingly, following a treatment protocol, i.e., oral antibiotics alone or surgical debridement along with injectable antibiotics or additional debridement of graft in refractory patients, yielded satisfactory results.

Patellar resurfacing versus nonresurfacing with patellaplasty in total knee arthroplasty
Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference in short-term clinical, functional, and radiological outcomes in the two groups and therefore, routine patellar resurfacing for patient undergoing TKA is not advantageous. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Does the surgeon-reported outcome correlate with patient-reported outcome after total knee arthroplasty ? A cohort study
Conclusion: All patients should be counseled preoperatively to assess their expectations and sensitize them to information regarding the expected functional outcome following TKA in their cultural context. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Effectiveness of strontium ranelate in the treatment of rat model of legg & #8211;calve & #8211;perthes disease
Conclusion: Strontium ranelate effectively prevented collapse of the ischemic femoral head and enhanced trabecular thickness in the rat model of LCPD. Hopefully, this preclinical experiment can improve the effectiveness of strontium ranelate treatment for pediatric ONFH. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Midterm results of conversion from failed bipolar hemiarthroplasty to total hip arthroplasty
Conclusions: Conversion THA after failed bipolar HA offers a reliable pain relief and functional improvement. To prevent dislocation, it is highly recommended to use a larger diameter femoral head, especially where the cup size is big. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Is convex derotation equally effective as concave derotation for achieving adequate correction of selective lenke & #39;s Type- 1 scoliosis ?
Conclusion: The study results showed similar sustained satisfactory correction of flexible Lenke's type 1 scoliotic curves irrespective of the derotation maneuver used. Adequate correction, thereby restoring balance was predominantly perceived among the entire sample. Hence, convex derotation can be considered equally effective as that of concave derotation for achieving adequate correction of selective Lenke's Type-1 scoliosis.

A comparative study of decompressive laminectomy and posterior lumbar interbody fusion in Grade I degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis
Conclusions: Although both decompression alone and decompression with fusion improved functional outcomes for Grade I DLS, fusion surgery resulted in better results compared to decompression alone. Therefore, fusion should be considered as the treatment of choice for Grade I DLS. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)
