Moderate varus/valgus malalignment after total knee arthroplasty has little effect on knee function or muscle strength.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Cyclooxigenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors have been reported to delay fracture healing. To investigate the major inhibitory period of COX-2 inhibitors in fracture healing, we administrated etodolac, a COX-2-specific inhibitor, to a rat fracture model by altering the period of administration from early to late. ME...
