Abstract

Category: Sports Introduction/Purpose: Success rates for surgical management of chronic exertional compartment syndrome (CECS) in the lower extremity are influenced by the leg compartment involved. A failure rate of 40-50% has been associated with release of the deep posterior compartment, which has historically been associated with significantly worse outcomes than isolated anterolateral releases. The tibialis posterior muscle often resides in a separate osseofascial sheath, the so-called “fifth compartment.” At our institution, when a deep posterior release is performed, we routinely examine for this fifth compartment and release it if present. Within the context of this surgical approach, the aim of the current study was to compare long-term patient satisfaction and activity levels in those that underwent 2-versus 4-compartment fasciotomy for CECS. Methods: Our study reports on 48 limbs from 31 patients associated with a consecutive series that presented to a single institution for surgical management of lower extremity CECS from 2007-2016. The mean (standard deviation) follow-up was 65 (+/- 28) months. All patients underwent pre-operative intramuscular compartment pressure testing for CECS diagnosis. All surgeries were performed by a single surgeon. In all patients in which 4-compartment fasciotomy was indicated, the tibialis posterior muscle was examined for a separate osseofascial sheath. This sheath was released when present. The presence or absence of the sheath was always dictated in the operative note. Patient satisfaction outcomes were assessed with a Likert scale (excellent, good, fair, or poor). Current activity level was assessed via Marx and Tegner activity scores. Results: Of the 48 limbs, 29 limbs received 2-compartment anterolateral releases only and 19 limbs received 4-compartment fasciotomies. Of those that received 4-compartment fasciotomies, 13 (68%) were found to have a separate osseofascial sheath surrounding the tibialis posterior muscle. At a mean 5-year follow-up interval, 77% of the total cohort rated their outcome as good or excellent. Among the 4-comparment fasciotomy sub-cohort, 79% of patients rated their outcome as good or excellent. Among the entire cohort, there were no revision surgeries performed. The overall mean Tegner and Marx activity scores were 6 and 11 respectively. There was no significant difference in mean outcome scores between those that had 2-versus 4-compartment fasciotomies. Conclusion: Our study illustrates that 1) a separate osseofascial sheath exists around the tibialis posterior muscle in the majority of cases and 2) if this fifth compartment is consistently examined for and released, patients can achieve equivalent success rates and return to a similarly high activity level as those that undergo 2-compartment fasciotomy for CECS. Our study demonstrates superior results for 4-compartment release and includes the longest mean follow-up time for CECS patients in the literature.

Abstract

Background The emergency department (ED) often represents the first exposure orthopedic trauma patients have to prescription opioids and thus a critical opportunity for prevention of potential long-term opioid use. This study will analyze the impact of opioid prescribing patterns among both ED providers and orthopedic surgery residents on the utilization of opioids during routine orthopedic trauma manipulations. Materials and methods This retrospective study reviewed opioid utilization among patients with an ankle or distal radius fracture at a large, urban, level 1 trauma center. Data on clinical providers, patient demographics, and injury severity score (ISS) were collected. Total opioid use was reported in oral morphine milligram equivalents (MME). Regression analyses were performed to determine how provider opioid prescribing intensity affected administered MME. Results Five-hundred and ninety-five patients were included. The mean MME administered was 40.84 (SD 30.0) and was inversely associated with ISS (R = −.05; P = .40). Patients treated by a high-intensity ED prescriber had approximately three times higher odds of receiving over 40.84 MME (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.33-5.90 P = .07). For those with an ISS score less than 15, the presence of a low-intensity orthopedic resident decreased the odds of receiving over 40.84 MME from 2.25 to 1.78 in the presence of a high-intensity ED prescriber. Conclusion For isolated orthopedic manipulations in the ED, involvement of a low-intensity prescribing orthopedic resident significantly decreased the quantity of opioids administered for those with lower ISS injuries, thus effectively mitigating the effect of high-intensity prescribing behavior prescriber.

Abstract

PURPOSE: Anterior cruciate ligament deficiency (ACLD) has been considered a contraindication for Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) because of the reported higher incidence of failure when implanted in ACLD knees. However, given the potential advantages of UKA over total knee arthroplasty (TKA), we have performed UKA in a limited number of patients with ACL deficiency and end-stage medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA) over the past 11 years. The primary aim of this study was to establish the clinical outcome of this cohort; the secondary aim was to compare both clinical and radiographic data with a matched cohort of ACL-intact (ACLI) patients who have undergone UKA for anteromedial OA. METHODS: This retrospective observational study describes the clinical and radiological outcome in 46 medial Oxford UKAs implanted in 42 consecutive patients with ACL deficiency and concomitant symptomatic medial compartment OA at mean follow-up of 5 years. It also compares the outcomes with a matched cohort of UKA patients with an intact ACL (ACLI group). RESULTS: At the time of last follow-up, there was no significant difference in clinical results or survivorship between the two groups in this study. CONCLUSION: The successful short-term results of the ACLD group suggest ACL deficiency may not always be a contraindication to Oxford UKA as previously thought. Until long-term data is available, however, we maintain our recommendation that ACLD be considered a contraindication.
