- Surgical approaches for inserting hemiarthroplasty of the hip
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Nov-2008
The operation of insertion of a hemiarthroplasty to the hip refers to replacement of the femoral head with a prosthesis, whilst retaining the natural acetabulum and acetabular cartilage. The main surgical approaches to the hip for insertion of the prosthe - Surgical cytoreduction for recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Sep-2016
The standard management of primary ovarian cancer is optimal cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy. Most women with primary ovarian cancer achieve remission on this combination therapy. For women achieving clinical remission after - Surgical decompression for cerebral oedema in acute ischaemic stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Nov-2011
Large cerebral infarction has a high case fatality. Despite the use of conventional medical treatments such as hyperventilation, mannitol, diuretics, corticosteroids and barbiturates, the outcome of this condition remains poor. Decompressive surgery to re - Surgical fixation methods for tibial plateau fractures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Sep-2015
Fractures of the tibial plateau, which are intra-articular injuries of the knee joint, are often difficult to treat and have a high complication rate, including early-onset osteoarthritis. Surgical fixation is usually used for more complex tibial plateau - Surgical interruption of pelvic nerve pathways for primary and secondary dysmenorrhoea
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Sep-2010
Dysmenorrhoea is the occurrence of painful menstrual cramps of uterine origin and is a very common gynaecological complaint with negative effect on a sufferer's quality of life. Medical therapy for dysmenorrhoea includes oral contraceptive pills (OCP) and - Surgical intervention for anorectal fistula
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Apr-2010
Surgery for anorectal fistula may result in recurrence, or impairment of continence. The ideal treatment for anorectal fistulae should be associated with low recurrence rates, minimal incontinence and good quality of life. - Surgical intervention versus expectant management for endometrial polyps in subfertile women
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Aug-2014
Endometrial polyps, which are benign growths of the endometrium, may be a factor in female subfertility. Possible mechanisms include physical interference with gamete transport, alteration of the endometrial milieu and unresponsiveness to the cyclical glo - Surgical interventions (microfracture, drilling, mosaicplasty, and allograft transplantation) for treating isolated cartilage defects of the knee in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Sep-2016
Cartilage defects of the knee are often debilitating and predispose to osteoarthritis. Microfracture, drilling, mosaicplasty, and allograft transplantation are four surgical treatment options that are increasingly performed worldwide. We set out to examin - Surgical interventions for bilateral congenital cataract
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jun-2008
Congenital cataracts are opacities of the lens in one or both eyes of children that cause a reduction in vision severe enough to require surgery. Cataract is the largest treatable cause of visual loss in childhood. Paediatric cataracts provide different c - Surgical interventions for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Nov-2014
Surgical treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps is an established treatment for medically resistant nasal polyp disease. Whether a nasal polypectomy with additional sinus dissection offers any advantage over an isolated nasal polypectomy ha - Surgical interventions for diaphyseal fractures of the radius and ulna in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Sep-2011
Diaphyseal forearm fractures in children are a common injury usually resulting from a fall. The treatment options include non-surgical intervention (manipulation and application of cast) and surgical options such as internal fixation with intramedullary n - Surgical interventions for early squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Jul-2014
Radical surgery has been standard treatment for patients with early vulvar cancer since the mid 1900s. Survival figures are excellent, but complication rates are high. Since 1980, surgery has become more individualised in order to decrease complications i - 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.
