- Surgical interventions for the rheumatoid shoulder
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Nov-2009
Involvment of the shoulder joint in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) leads to severe destruction of the glenohumeral joint. When conservative treatment does not result in sufficient improvement, surgical procedures may be considered as the only ben - Surgical interventions for treating acute Achilles tendon ruptures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Aug-2010
There is a lack of consensus on the best management of the acute Achilles tendon rupture. Treatment can be broadly classified into surgical (open or percutaneous) and non-surgical (cast immobilisation or functional bracing). - Surgical interventions for treating acute fractures or non-union of the middle third of the clavicle
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-May-2015
This review covers two conditions: acute clavicle fractures and non-union resulting from failed fracture healing. Clavicle (collarbone) fractures account for around 4% of all fractures. While treatment for these fractures is usually non-surgical, some typ - Surgical interventions for treating distal humeral fractures in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Nov-2012
Distal humeral fractures in adults are relatively uncommon injuries that require surgical intervention in most cases. There is a lack of consensus regarding the best management of distal humeral fractures in adults, including the role of conservative trea - Surgical interventions for treating distal radial fractures in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-May-2009
Fracture of the distal radius is a common clinical problem, particularly in older white women with osteoporosis. - Surgical interventions for treating distal tibial metaphyseal fractures in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Apr-2015
The distal tibial metaphysis is located in the lower (distal) part of the tibia (shin bone). Fractures of this part of the tibia are most commonly due to a high energy injury in young men and to osteoporosis in older women. The optimal methods of surgical - Surgical interventions for treating fractures of the olecranon in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Nov-2014
Fractures of the olecranon (the bony tip of the elbow) account for approximately 1% of all upper extremity fractures. Surgical intervention is often required to restore elbow function. Two key methods of surgery are tension band wire fixation and plate fi - Surgical interventions for treating pectus excavatum
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Oct-2014
Pectus excavatum is characterized by a depression of the anterior chest wall (sternum and lower costal cartilages) and is the most frequently occurring chest wall deformity. The prevalence ranges from 6.28 to 12 cases per 1000 around the world. Generally - Surgical interventions for treating radial head fractures in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Apr-2013
Radial head fractures are the most common type of elbow fracture and can severely affect the function of the elbow. There is uncertainty and controversy about when surgery is indicated as well as what type of surgical intervention is best. - Surgical interventions for vertical strabismus in superior oblique palsy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Nov-2017
Superior oblique palsy is a common cause of vertical strabismus in adults and children. Patients may be symptomatic from binocular vertical diplopia or compensatory head tilt required to maintain single vision. Most patients who are symptomatic elect to u - Surgical management for upper urinary tract transitional cell carcinoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Feb-2011
Upper tract transitional cell carcinomas (TCC) are uncommon and aggressive tumours. There are a number of surgical approaches to manage this condition including open radical nephroureterectomy and laparoscopic procedures. - Surgical management of functional bladder outlet obstruction in adults with neurogenic bladder dysfunction
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-May-2014
The most common type of functional bladder outlet obstruction in patients with neurogenic bladder is detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD). The lack of co-ordination between the bladder and the external urethral sphincter muscle (EUS) in DSD can result in - Surgical management of localised renal cell carcinoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Mar-2016
Surgical excision remains the core to the management of localised renal cancer and several studies have evaluated the safety and clinical effectiveness of laparoscopic surgery and other recently introduced interventions for the localised disease. - Surgical methods for first trimester termination of pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-May-2009
Different surgical methods for termination of pregnancy have evolved over the years: Dilatation and curettage, power operated vacuum aspiration (VA), manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) or hysterotomy. Local or general anaesthesia is used for all methods. Prea - Surgical options for lumbar spinal stenosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Oct-2016
Hospital charges for lumbar spinal stenosis have increased significantly worldwide in recent times, with great variation in the costs and rates of different surgical procedures. There have also been significant increases in the rate of complex fusion and - Surgical orbital decompression for thyroid eye disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2011
Orbital decompression is an established procedure for the management of exophthalmos and visual rehabilitation from optic neuropathy in cases of thyroid eye disease. Numerous procedures for removal of orbital bony wall, fat or a combination of these for a - Surgical portosystemic shunts versus devascularisation procedures for prevention of variceal rebleeding in people with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Aug-2018
Hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is an important cause of variceal bleeding in low-income countries. Randomised clinical trials have evaluated the outcomes of two categories of surgical interventions, shunts and devascularisation procedures, for the preventi - Surgical portosystemic shunts versus transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt for variceal haemorrhage in people with cirrhosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Oct-2018
Variceal haemorrhage that is refractory or recurs after pharmacologic and endoscopic therapy requires a portal decompression shunt (either surgical shunts or radiologic shunt, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)). TIPS has become the shun - Surgical procedures for evacuating incomplete miscarriage
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jul-2010
Incomplete miscarriage is a major problem that should be effectively managed with safe and appropriate procedures. Surgical evacuation of the uterus for management of incomplete miscarriage usually involves vacuum aspiration or sharp curettage. - Surgical removal versus retention for the management of asymptomatic disease-free impacted wisdom teeth
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Aug-2016
Prophylactic removal of asymptomatic disease-free impacted wisdom teeth is surgical removal of wisdom teeth in the absence of symptoms and with no evidence of local disease. Impacted wisdom teeth may be associated with pathological changes, such as perico
