Use of Leukocyte- and Platelet-Rich Fibrin to Prevent Osteonecrosis of the Jaws Associated with the Use of Bisphosphonate Therapy: A Case Series
AbstractMedication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) consists of an area of exposed intraoral or extraoral bone that affects patients with a history of use of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic medications, and who have not undergone head and neck radiotherapy. Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) is an autologous material of great potential, used as an adjuvant in surgical treatments, especially where healing is compromised. The aim of this article is to report three cases of the use of L-PRF in the prevention of MRONJ in three female Caucasian under bisphosphonates therapy. Patient 1, 86 years old, with o...

Patient-Reported Outcomes and Computed Tomography Review After Minimally Invasive Fusion of the Sacroiliac Joint With Aggressive Joint Decortication and Joint Compression
Orthopedics. 2023 Sep 6:1-7. doi: 10.3928/01477447-20230901-04. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is a common, underrecognized source of low back pain. We evaluated outcomes in patients undergoing sacroiliac joint fusion (SIJF) using a novel, minimally invasive SIJF system emphasizing compressive forces across an aggressively debrided SIJ. We retrospectively reviewed data from a continuous set of patients presenting to a large, tertiary care hospital from September 2017 to August 2019. All patients received the novel SIJF device. Outcomes were assessed at 8 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months using the Os...

No Difference Between One-shot Co-injection of Corticosteroids and Hyaluronic Acid in a Three-injection Regimen for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized, Double-blind Trial
CONCLUSION: We found that a single co-injection of corticosteroids along with HA did not confer any additional benefit regarding patient-reported outcomes or physical function compared with a three-injection regimen of HA. Therefore, we do not recommend a one-shot co-injection of corticosteroids alongside the three-injection regimen of HA for patients with knee OA, and because prior research found HA to be ineffective, HA should not be used with or without corticosteroids for patients with knee OA.LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level I, therapeutic study.PMID:37669538 | DOI:10.1097/CORR.0000000000002793
