Perioperative management of elderly patients with osteoarthritis requiring total knee arthroplasty.
Knee osteoarthritis is a common arthritic disease which mainly affects the elderly (≥65 years old) population. As a result of the cartilage degeneration, it can cause a significant amount of pain and functional limitation. In...
Perioperative management of open fractures in the lower limb.
An open fracture is a fracture which communicates with the external environment through a wound in the skin. Severe open fractures are managed by both orthopaedic and plastic surgeons to address injuries in both the bone and...
Perioperative management of distal radius fractures.
Fractures of the distal radius are the most common upper limb fracture and account for over a sixth of all fractures seen in emergency departments. Although most of these fractures are managed non-operatively, a significant...
