Diagnosing acute compartment syndrome-where have we got to?

abstract：PURPOSE:Studies on total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in Saudi Arabia are scarce, and none have reported the knowledge and attitude of the procedure in Saudi Arabia. Our study aims to measure the knowledge and attitude of TKA among the adult Saudi population. METHODS:To encompass a representative sample of this cross-secti...

abstract：:Two techniques are presented for atraumatic handling of tendon ends during repair of flexor and extensor tendons. If the tendon is cleanly transected, the suture is carried out by holding the tendon in nerve holding forceps. If debridement is needed, a slice is partly cut and used to handle the tendon; the slice is th...
