5-Minute Summary: Adductor Canal Blocks May Result in Long-Term Neuropathy After Total Knee Arthroplasty

The aims of this study were to determine the incidence of block-related complications after adductor canal blocks (ACB) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), identify associated risk factors, and investigate if there were any differences in clinical outcomes.

5-Minute Summary: Review of Pyrocarbon Shoulder Hemiarthroplasty: Advances in Shoulder Arthroplasty

Pyrocarbon hemiarthroplasty heads are an alternate bearing surface compared to metal with favorable wear properties. Pyrocarbon has a high wear resistance, low friction and favorable modulus when compared to cortical bone.

5-Minute Summary: From Incision to Recovery: Advances and Challenges in Wound Closure After Total Knee Arthroplasty

Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the most common orthopedic procedures globally, with wound closure playing a critical role in postoperative recovery and complication prevention. Despite advances, the optimal closure technique remains debated. This narrative review evaluates current wound closure techniques in TKA highlighting their biomechanical and clinical

5-Minute Summary: Association Between Posterior Cruciate Ligament Resection and Medial Gap Laxity in Robotic-Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty

The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is a major stabilizing structure of the flexion space, yet current evidence is inconclusive regarding change in gap laxity associated with its resection. This study aimed to describe the association between PCL resection and knee gap balancing using intra-operative robotic assessment.
