🌍 ORTHOADVENT DAY 15 🌟 On the fifteenth day of #OrthoAdvent, we are sharing the most popular #BJO paper of this year. The study highlights substantial global and regional disparities in access to #sarcoma services. #Oncology #Cancer @BoneJointOpen https://t.co/FtkKB1LeKM

Novel measurements using axial images of MRI scans achieved overall good inter- and intraobserver reliability. Higher grade lateral collateral ligament injury exhibited higher congruence angle, medial ulnar translation (TRANS), and adjusted-TRANS. #BJO https://t.co/BRA6NEc5c3

"...interesting as there's limited comparative data between these two methods". 📋 This week, we delve into a study on the management of periprosthetic femoral fractures around polished tapered stems! #BJO #Ortho @borna_guevel @petebates @BartsBoneJoint https://t.co/Lg95ITtpla

Patient satisfaction after TKA is associated with early postoperative catastrophizing thinking. In particular, higher Pain Catastrophizing Scale scores at seven days postoperatively are associated with lower satisfaction one year after surgery. #BJO https://t.co/IxF3jELuZS
