Abstract Objective Recent studies of hip anatomy have turned to the posterior capsule better understand anatomic location capsular sensory branches and identify nerves with potential for neural blockade. Current literature has shown is primarily supplied by from sciatic nerve, nerve quadratus femoris, superior gluteal (1, 2). This cadaveric study investigated gross hip, while also identifying t...

Arthroscopic debridement of the posterior compartment of the knee after total knee arthroplasty is difficult because it is tough to obtain intercondylar notch views. Herein, we performed arthroscopic debridement of the posterior compartment of an infected knee after total knee arthroplasty by using a transseptal portal in a 62-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis. Palpation of anatomical la...

After posterior capsule rupture, removal of residual lens material is a challenging but important goal. Sequential, interdependent strategies to accomplish this include the Viscoat PAL, the Viscoat Trap, bimanual pars plana anterior vitrectomy, and bimanual irrigation–aspiration of cortex. Once brought into the anterior chamber, the nucleus can be removed either with phacoemulsification above a...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of various surgical procedures in the management of posterior capsule and anterior vitreous on the prevention of visual axis opacification. SUBJECTS, MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 120 eyes operated for unilateral congenital cataracts, with a median age at the time of cataract surgery of 21 months (interquartile range, 6-52 months).
