Dr. Steven Neufeld is a pioneer in total ankle replacement surgery. He leads one of the top centers for ankle replacements in the country and can implant four different types of artificial ankles. Total ankle replacement may be recommended for patients over 50 with ankle arthritis or fractures who are moderately active. It provides more natural ankle movement than fusion surgery and customized implants. After surgery, patients undergo rehabilitation including non-impact exercises like biking or water therapy to increase ankle mobility.

Preserving Hip Joints Made Possible by Technology
Patients who have problems with their hips go through lengths in order to reduce the pain and would rather not delay their hip replacement procedure because it will just prolong their agony, however, recent health reports say that it may be possible to preserve diseased hip joints without replacing the joints. This new practice may be able to extend the hip joints to last for a lifetime instead of having a hip replacement that may only last for 15 to 20 years, several orthopedic specialists say. The complications that often result to the destruction of the hip joints are often correctible, according to Dr. Michael B. Millis, because they have a pattern that needs to be corrected before they cause further and irreversible damage. Read more here at this website: depuypinnaclelawsuit.com

Knee Replacement Surgery:symptoms,risks,types,rehabilitation|Jyotinursinghome
Knee Replacement surgery or Knee Arthroplasty is a surgical drill of replacing a damaged, worn or diseased knee joint with an artificial joint(made from metal and plastic components) to relieve pain, disability and provide continued motion of the knee. Knee Replacement is mostly performed for osteoarthritis. Adults of any age can be considered for a knee replacement, although most are carried out on people between the ages of 60 and 80.

Final Paper - Biodegradable Bone Cement
The document describes a new artificial knee joint replacement called the Orthogenua Joint Replacement. It is designed to integrate permanently with the patient's bone using their own stem cells and biodegradable materials. This would allow for increased mobility and flexibility compared to current replacements, which often need to be replaced after 10-15 years as they wear down. The joint replacement will be tested in goats to evaluate bone integration and durability over time compared to a healthy joint. If successful, this permanent replacement could improve the lives of athletes and others by eliminating the need for multiple revision surgeries over a lifetime.

Stem Cells For Hip Arthoroscopy
This document describes a case involving a 42-year-old male polo player who was treated for a labral tear and impingement in his hip using a bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) technique. He had moderate arthritis and cysts. He initially rejected surgery and instead received a BMAC injection to try to preserve the joint. Follow up imaging 5 months later still showed an ossified labrum. He later underwent a hip labral reconstruction using stem cells and fascia lata allograft to address the damage from the impingement and cysts.
Common Knee Conditions and their management
This document discusses knee arthritis and surgical treatment options. It begins with introductions of two orthopaedic surgeons, Jarrad Stevens and Dave Slattery. It then discusses where orthopaedic surgeons fit in the treatment of knee arthritis, noting they are involved when non-surgical options are exhausted and the patient will benefit from joint replacement. Surgical approaches for knee replacement are described, including use of a medial parapatellar incision. Robotic replacement is discussed as providing accurate placement of components. Options for partial versus total knee replacement are presented, and the future of knee replacement surgery is addressed.
Cartilage Treatment Sarasota
This document discusses the treatment of articular cartilage injuries using adult chondrocyte cells. It describes how cartilage cells are obtained via biopsy during arthroscopy and then grown in a lab to create a treatment called "Carticel" in Cambridge, MA. The treatment involves an open surgery later on. The document provides an overview of using adult cartilage cells and notes that they do not replicate well, have no blood or nerve supply, and heal with inferior fibrocartilage when damaged.
PRP Biologics 3
This document discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in orthopedic surgical procedures and repairs. It provides examples of how PRP has been used as an adjunct in shoulder and hip arthroscopic surgeries to aid in rotator cuff and labral repairs. Specifically, it references studies showing PRP may enhance graft maturation in ACL reconstructions and reduce time to healing in rotator cuff repairs. The document also mentions using PRP and microfracture during hip arthroscopy to treat a labral tear and cartilage damage, resulting in near complete pain resolution within 6 weeks.
Hip resurfacing
This document compares traditional total hip replacement surgery to hip resurfacing surgery. In total hip replacement, both the femoral head and acetabulum are replaced with prosthetics, while hip resurfacing only replaces the acetabulum and caps the femoral head with metal. Younger, larger patients with healthy bone are generally best suited for hip resurfacing, which involves reshaping and capping the femoral head rather than full replacement. The document goes on to describe the procedures and recovery process for hip resurfacing surgery.
Cartilage Regeneration Sarasota
This document discusses various cartilage repair techniques including osteochondral autografting, allografts, autologous chondrocyte implantation, and collagen scaffolds. It provides strengths and limitations of each technique. Autologous chondrocyte implantation can produce hyaline-like cartilage and fill defects of any size but is more invasive and expensive. Collagen scaffolds are used to replace injured tissue, such as the collagen meniscal implant.
Recent advances in Knee Replacement
A total knee replacement (TKR) is a common surgical treatment for knee arthritis, and surgeons have been performing total knee replacements since 1968, and in that time, technology and procedures continue to evolve and improve. This surgery is safe and an effective treatment for knee pain. Improvement in surgical techniques and the knee implants over the years has helped in increasing the success of this surgery.
Surgical techniques
Over a period of time the surgical techniques have become more refined, leading on to good healing of surgical scar and early mobilization of the patient. Now the muscle cut in surgery is less and some surgeons perform the surgery without cutting any muscle, thus patient has better control of the knee and increased range of motion post knee replacement surgery.
Total hip replacement vs hip resurfacing
Total Hip Replacement and Hip Resurfacing are the two different types of processes operated to the hip depending on the necessity of the treatment.

DAA Hip Replacement
This document discusses direct anterior hip replacement surgery, a minimally invasive approach to hip replacement. It has three main benefits over traditional posterior and lateral approaches: it does not require cutting any muscles, allows for quicker recovery and less pain, and earlier discharge from the hospital. Patients are also able to immediately bend their hip freely and bear full weight after surgery, leading to a more rapid return to normal activities. Many patients who require hip replacement due to arthritis or other issues are candidates for this anterior approach.

Biologic Knee Replacement Presentation
Biologic Knee Replacement (BKR) is our approach to treating knee injuries, from trauma to arthritis, and is designed to help people delay, or even avoid, artificial knee replacement. BKR is a scientifically-proven collection of our out-patient surgical techniques and procedures and consists of any combination of meniscus transplantation, articular cartilage paste grafting, ligament replacement as explained in further detail below. Being "bone on bone" does not always mean that the joint needs to be artificially replaced, often the "bone on bone" is isolated to a portion of the knee joint and this can be repaired using Biologic Knee Replacement.
Orthopedic
Orthopedics is the medical specialty that focuses on injuries and diseases of your body's musculoskeletal system. This complex system includes your bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves and allows you to move, work, and be active.
Occupational Therapy and Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a chronic condition that causes breakdown of cartilage in joints, resulting in pain, swelling, and loss of motion. It most commonly affects weight-bearing joints like the hips and knees. Risk factors include age, genetics, excess weight, and joint injuries. Osteoarthritis can profoundly impact one's physical and mental health by limiting mobility and social activities. Treatment focuses on reducing pain and inflammation through medications, exercise, weight loss, and sometimes surgery like joint replacement for severe cases.

An Introduction to Total Hip Replacement Surgery
An accomplished orthopaedic consultant in New York, Dr. Stuart Remer spent two decades as the director of spine surgery at Saint Barnabas Hospital and Health System in the Bronx. Dr. Stuart Remer has experience with a number of surgical procedures, including joint replacement surgery of the hip.
Individuals suffering from joint pain in the hip have several surgical options, including a total hip replacement. There are a number of causes and symptoms that may lead a person and their medical team to move forward with a total hip replacement procedure, also known as total hip arthroplasty.
Arthritis of the hip or a bone fracture are two common situations that can lead to stiffness and pain throughout the area. In severe cases, individuals may struggle to put on shoes or simply find a comfortable position in which to lay. Prior to surgery, physicians will typically explore medication, physical therapy, lifestyle changes, and medical equipment that eases joint stress. In some cases, however, surgery presents the best option for mitigating pain and regaining mobility.
The decision to address joint problems with surgery is one that must be discussed and agreed upon by both doctor and patient. Doctors will typically support the decision when hip pain limits a person’s daily activities, or when joint pain persists regardless of rest and other nonsurgical interventions.
Even after a patient is determined to be a strong candidate for total hip replacement surgery following an orthopaedic evaluation, patients must maintain realistic expectations. Successful procedures lead to considerable pain relief and allow patients to resume the normal activities of everyday life. That said, high impact activities, such as those involved with playing sports, can accelerate the speed at which hip replacement components degrade. With this in mind, individuals who undergo hip replacement surgery are advised to take up less intensive activities, such as swimming and playing golf.

Knee Replacement
Knee replacement surgery involves removing damaged parts of the knee joint and replacing them with artificial parts made of metal or plastic. During surgery, an incision is made in the front of the knee and the damaged surfaces are reshaped to hold the artificial joint in place. Recently, minimally invasive surgery using smaller incisions has become more common and may lead to less pain and faster recovery. After surgery, physical therapy is required to restore muscle strength and allow patients to resume most daily activities after about 6 weeks, though running and jumping will still be avoided. Modern knee replacements often last over 20 years.

High heels, while fashionable, can negatively impact foot health according to Dr. Steven Neufeld. He notes that the design of heels like stilettos can affect balance and body alignment by focusing weight on the balls of the feet. Wearing heels for prolonged periods can cause leg muscle tightness and affect walking patterns, exacerbating conditions like bunions. Dr. Neufeld recommends wearing comfortable, properly fitting shoes and limiting heel use to short periods rather than all day.
Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that commonly affects weight-bearing joints like the knee and hip. It has multiple causes but is generally attributed to normal wear and tear over time. Knee osteoarthritis symptoms include pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Treatments include medications, physical therapy, bracing, and knee replacement surgery for severe cases. Knee replacement surgery involves removing damaged bone and cartilage and replacing them with artificial implants. Extensive physical therapy is then needed for rehabilitation and recovery of strength and mobility.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

- 2. Certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Dr. Steven Neufeld serves as an orthopaedic surgeon at The Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Center of Washington, D.C. Recognized as a pioneer in the field, he has established one of the leading centers for total ankle replacements in the country. Steven Neufeld, MD, and his colleague Matthew Buchanan, MD, are licensed to implant four different types of replacement ankles.
- 3. Below are answers to some common questions about total ankle replacement surgery.
- 4. Question #1: What are some situations in which total ankle replacement surgery would be recommended? Answer #1: Patients who have been diagnosed with arthritis, or whose ankle joints have been severely fractured, may be good candidates for total ankle replacement surgery. The ideal patient is one who is over the age of 50, is of moderate build, and is fairly active.
- 5. Question #2: What are the benefits of total ankle replacement surgery? Answer #2: The benefits include more natural movement in the ankle joints than is possible with fusion surgery; a variety of different types and sizes of artificial ankle joints to fit each individual’s needs; and improved ankle support and stability.
- 6. Question #3: What happens after the surgery? Answer #3: Following total ankle replacement surgery, patients will undergo rehabilitation, including non-impact exercise such as bicycling or water therapy. These types of activities help to increase the range of motion of the ankle, and improve the final outcome of the procedure.
