Significats de tibial tubercle en anglès

CT scan measurements are needed to assess the tibial tubercle trochlear groove distance.

One patient suffered a per-operative fracture of the tibial tubercle which later required further fixation.

Computer tomography is used for a precise pre-operative assessment of the tibial tubercle-trochlear groove distance.

Before incision, an IO needle was inserted into the tibial tubercle region, delivering 100 mL of the mixed vancomycin solution.

The epicondylar axis and tibial tubercle are reproducible landmarks which are visible on computed tomography scans and can be used intraoperatively.

Computed tomography scans were performed from the anterior superior iliac spine to the tibial tubercle before surgery and at last follow-up.

Most proximal tibial epiphyseal injuries occur as avulsion fractures of the tibial tubercle; Salter-Harris Types I or II injuries involving pressure epiphyses are rare.

Fifteen (11 women and 4 men) patients who had undergone tibial tubercle elevation were included in the study.

The epicondylar axis and tibial tubercle were used as references on computed tomography scans to measure quantitatively rotational alignment of the femoral and tibial components.

Tibial tubercle fractures can be associated with compartment syndrome and pose a risk to the extensor mechanism of the knee.
