Item The effect of organic silicon injection on Achilles tendon healing in rats(TURKISH ASSOC ORTHOPAEDICS TRAUMATOLOGY, 2014-01-01) Gereli, Arel; Akgun, Umut; Uslu, Serap; Agir, Ismail; Ates, Filiz; Nalbantoglu, UfukItem Modified Fulkerson osteotomy in recurrent patellofemoral dislocations(TURKISH ASSOC ORTHOPAEDICS TRAUMATOLOGY, 2010-01-01) Akgun, Umut; Nuran, Ruestue; Karahan, MustafaObjectives: We evaluated the results of a modified Fulkerson technique performed for the treatment of recurrent patellofemoral dislocations. Methods: The study included 17 knees of 16 patients (11 males, 5 femalesItem Arthroscopy-assisted treatment of Hoffa fracture associated with ipsilateral femoral shaft, tibial eminence and Malgaigne fractures(TURKISH ASSOC ORTHOPAEDICS TRAUMATOLOGY, 2014-01-01) Akan, Kaya; Akgun, Umut; Poyanli, Oguz; Unay, KorayHoffa fracture associated with ipsilateral femoral shaft fractures is a rare clinical entity. We present a previously unreported multi-trauma case with a unique fracture combination of ipsilateral Hoffa, tibial eminence, femoral shaft and Malgaigne fractures. The Malgaigne fracture was treated non-operatively while the other three fractures were operated with arthroscopic and assisted techniques. Despite the use of minimally invasive techniques, the patient experienced postoperative soft tissue problems. In follow-up, all fractures healed with a good functional outcome. The application of a minimally invasive technique in such a high-energy trauma is crucial for prevention of soft tissue complications.Item The effect of loop size on loop security and elongation of a knot(ELSEVIER MASSON, CORP OFF, 2020-01-01) Ergun, Selim; Akgun, Umut; Karahan, MustafaIntroduction: While repairing a teared rotator cuff tendon with suture anchors and horizontal mattress suture configurations, knots should be secure at time zero while approximating the tendon to the bone, otherwise any failure in loop security may cause undesired clinical results. Optimum distance between suture limbs passed through the tendon, in other words the bite size, is still not clear in the literature. The aim of this study was to test the effect of loop size, which is directly related to the bite size, on loop security and elongation of a knot. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that a knot with a smaller loop size would be more secure. We asked if a knot with shorter circumference (1) would offer a better knot security
