Summary: Participants are being asked to participate in this research study because they have elected to undergo periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). This research study is looking at if using IV magnesium during surgery can help to reduce pain after surgery.

Background: Adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD) is a deformity of the foot which leads to pain and an altered gait pattern. There are several different surgical interventions available for treatment of AAFD. One of the most common treatments for mobile AAFD is medial displacement calcaneal osteotomy (MDCO) with or without adjuvant soft tissue procedures. However, the medial displacement of the calcaneus ...

Summary: Hip dysplasia is a common orthopedic condition, defined as an abnormality in the shape, size and orientation of the femoral head, acetabulum or both. The most frequent presentation of hip dysplasia is the maldevelopment of the acetabulum, resulting in insufficient superior coverage of the femoral head, defined as a lateral center-edge angle (Wiberg) of less than 20 degrees. Patients suffer from gr...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare bone healing after using apical tooth microsurgery to remove root end infection, either by use of rotary burs for cutting bone and root end, or by use of piezoelectric surgery for the same procedures. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a difference in bone healing and reformation between the two surgical procedures ? * Is there a diff...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Bromelain Supplement works to decrease the amount of swelling or the amount of time swelling is present following jaw surgery. It will also learn about the safety of Bromelain supplement. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Bromelain decrease facial swelling following orthognathic, or jaw, surgery? Does Bromelain supplement decrease the amo...

Summary: Primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) is a lacrimal duct obstruction disease characterized by inflammatory fibrosis of the nasolacrimal duct, with primary symptoms including epiphora and increased secretions, commonly seen in middle-aged and elderly women over 40 years of age . The pathogenesis of PANDO remains unclear, and there are no effective pharmacological treatments. Dacryo...

Summary: Haglund's syndrome is an abnormality of the bone and soft tissues in the foot. An enlargement of the bony section of the heel (where the Achilles tendon is inserted) triggers this condition. * symptom includes insertional Achilles tendinopathy (IAT), The patient with HS often has a red, irritated, painful heel. And they often complain the enlargement of the posterior heel, which make it more diffi...

Summary: The study will assess the outcomes of patients treated with concomitant hip arthroscopy at the time of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for patients with hip dysplasia compared with patients treated with PAO alone.

Summary: This study is a prospective observational non-interventional multi-centre cohort study of patients, 12 years or older, initiating a lower limb lengthening procedure with FITBONE and who have a length discrepancy of 30mm or more between the limbs. The following parameters will be assessed for up to 24 months. * Pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Patient Global Assessment (PGA) and Clinical O...

Summary: The purpose of the study is to evaluate peri-radicular healing after root-end surgery using Leukocyte and Platelet Rich Fibrin. The study population includes patients diagnosed with persistent periapical pathology and scheduled for Endodontic Microsurgery at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, Department of Endodontics. Patients undergoing routine endodontic microsurgery and ...

Summary: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of PENG blockade on postoperative pain after either ropivacaine 5 mg/mL or saline (placebo) in patients undergoing PAO. The hypothesis of this study is that PENG block with ropivacaine reduces postoperative pain compared to placebo (saline).

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and positioning accuracy of a custom-made proximal segment positioning appliance designed for use in sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO). The appliance is produced using STL-based digital planning and 3D printing technologies. In each patient, the appliance is applied to one side of the mandible while the contralateral side is positioned using th...
