ABSTRACT

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective comparative study. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical and radiological outcomes after anterior column realignment (ACR) through pre-posterior release-anterior-posterior surgery (PAP) and minimally invasive surgery -lateral lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-LLIF) using hybrid anterior-posterior surgery (AP). METHODS: A total of 91 patients who underwent ACR with long fusions from T10 vertebra to the sacropelvis with a follow-up period of at least 2 years after corrective surgery for adult spinal deformity were included and divided into two groups by surgical method: AP and PAP. AP was performed in 26 and PAP in 65 patients. Clinical outcomes and radiological parameters were investigated and compared. A further comparison was conducted after propensity score matching between the groups. RESULTS: The more increase of LL and decrease of PI-LL mismatch were observed in the PAP group than in the AP group postoperatively. After propensity score matching, total operation time and intraoperative bleeding were greater, and intensive care unit care and rod fracture were more frequent in the PAP group than in the AP group with statistical significance. Reoperation rate was higher in PAP (29.2%) than in AP (16.7%) without statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: PAP provides a more powerful correction for severe sagittal malalignment than AP procedures. AP results in less intraoperative bleeding, operation time, and postoperative complications. Therefore, this study does not suggest that one treatment is superior to the other. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

ABSTRACT

Background: Few studies have evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) in patients who had previously undergone arthroscopic meniscectomy. Purpose: To verify whether previous arthroscopic meniscectomy affects the clinical and radiological outcomes of MOWHTO. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A total of 183 consecutive knees that underwent MOWHTO and had a minimum 5 years of follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. We compared the preoperative and postoperative clinical and radiological data of 32 knees with a history of meniscectomy (previous meniscectomy group) to 151 control knees without a history of meniscectomy. Cartilage status was also compared at first- and second-look arthroscopic surgery according to the International Cartilage Repair Society grading system. Failure was defined as conversion to total knee arthroplasty or revision MOWHTO. On subgroup analysis, the previous meniscectomy group was divided into 2 subgroups based on the time from meniscectomy to MOWHTO (<3 vs ≥3 years). Results: The mean age at the time of surgery was 55.9 years (range, 38-70 years), and the mean follow-up period was 86.2 months (range, 60-164 months). The mean time between meniscectomy and MOWHTO was 48.9 months (range, 5-156 months), and all meniscectomy procedures were performed on the medial side. Preoperative patient characteristics were similar between the study groups. Clinical and radiological outcomes were not significantly different between the groups at the latest follow-up, and no significant between-group differences were observed regarding postoperative cartilage status on arthroscopic examination. One knee in the control group underwent conversion to total knee arthroplasty at 7 years postoperatively for arthritic progression. Subgroup analysis of the previous meniscectomy group indicated no significant differences in clinical outcomes based on the time from meniscectomy to MOWHTO. Conclusion: Based on the results, a history of meniscectomy did not adversely affect the midterm to long-term outcomes of MOWHTO. Furthermore, the time between previous meniscectomy and MOWHTO was not associated with the clinical outcomes of MOWHTO.

ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a novel method of semantic segmentation, consisting of modified dilated residual network, atrous pyramid pooling module, and backpropagation, that is applicable to augmented reality (AR). In the proposed method, the modified dilated residual network extracts a feature map from the original images and maintains spatial information. The atrous pyramid pooling module places convolutions in parallel and layers feature maps in a pyramid shape to extract objects occupying small areas in the image; these are converted into one channel using a 1 × 1 convolution. Backpropagation compares the semantic segmentation obtained through convolution from the final feature map with the ground truth provided by a database. Losses can be reduced by applying backpropagation to the modified dilated residual network to change the weighting. The proposed method was compared with other methods on the Cityscapes and PASCAL VOC 2012 databases. The proposed method achieved accuracies of 82.8 and 89.8 mean intersection over union (mIOU) and frame rates of 61 and 64.3 frames per second (fps) for the Cityscapes and PASCAL VOC 2012 databases, respectively. These results prove the applicability of the proposed method for implementing natural AR applications at actual speeds because the frame rate is greater than 60 fps.
