1.	Pain (Aches) 01/01/2005 - "In the rare cases when midcarpal arthrodesis failed, total wrist arthrodesis markedly improved the complaints in most patients, but in contrast to other studies complete pain was seldom." 07/01/1980 - "All patients had a solid arthrodesis and most were relieved of their preoperative pain" 04/01/1999 - "Achieving a solid arthrodesis does not seem to be a problem and provides the patient with pain relief; however, marked improvement in patient function and level of activity remains limited by the nature of RA and adjacent joint involvement." 09/01/1977 - "Knee arthroplasty is very effective in preserving functional knee motion, with relief of pain as an alternative to arthrodesis." 02/01/1993 - "Three studies conducted in our center demonstrated an improved technical success rate and elimination of preoperative pain in patients undergoing wrist fusions, with no significant difference in the ability to perform rapid movements requiring manual dexterity in the course of activities of daily living compared with patients who had undergone motion-preserving limited arthrodeses" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
2.	Congenital Abnormalities (Deformity) 01/01/2005 - "Arthrodesis using an intramedullary nail with fins was effective for the treatment of severe deformity of the hind foot" 08/01/2003 - "SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Combined anterior and posterior arthrodesis of the spine is useful in the management of fixed deformity involving the coronal and sagittal planes" 07/01/2005 - "Various studies have reported on the efficacy of anterior correction as opposed to posterior alone, whereas others have advocated a sequential, combined approach to diminish the degree of deformity and achieve solid arthrodesis" 09/15/2004 - "SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The use of spinal instrumentation has been shown to improve curve correction and arthrodesis rates in spinal deformity surgery" 04/01/2000 - "The safety and efficacy of Isola-Galveston instrumentation and arthrodesis in the treatment of neuromuscular spinal deformities."

3.	Arthritis (Polyarthritis) 11/01/1987 - "Although the best treatment is prevention, symptomatic malunions can be salvaged through more careful fracture management, by corrective osteotomy or, in the presence of post-traumatic arthritis, radiocarpal arthrodesis" 09/01/2004 - "Arthrodesis remains the mainstay of treatment of end-stage arthritis of the foot and ankle" 01/01/1998 - "We conclude that isolated subtalar arthrodesis with internal compression was effective treatment for post-traumatic subtalar arthritis" 01/01/1991 - "Arthrodesis is a safe and effective way of treating isolated painful arthritis in the trapeziometacarpal joint; solid fusion occurred in 39 cases, and four patients had fibrous union" 10/01/1998 - "BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate prospectively the efficacy of subtalar distractional realignment arthrodesis in the treatment of calcaneal malunion associated with subtalar arthritis, collapse of height, talonavicular subluxation, malalignment of the heel axis, and widening heel with calcaneofibular abutment" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
4.	Infection 11/01/1993 - "Although it is effective for almost any indication, it is perhaps best used for open injury, infection, and other difficult circumstances when different methods of compression arthrodesis are inadvisable" 06/01/2007 - "Associated with medical treatment for the infection we have been able to achieve complete remission of infection in all patients who underwent arthrodesis for an infected knee arthroplasty." 07/01/2003 - "An intramedullary rod is the ideal fixation choice for knee arthrodesis in patients with a failed, noninfected TKA; however, in patients with an infection, the infection must be eradicated prior to rod use." 12/01/2002 - "Infections were cured equally well with revision arthroplasty and arthrodesis" 12/01/2002 - "Twenty-five patients had their prostheses removed; 17 had two-stage revision arthroplasty, following which infection was eradicated in 15; one had a permanent spacer, 7 had arthrodesis (following failed revision arthroplasty in one) and 2 had a femur amputation (following failed revision arthroplasty in one) at follow-up of mean 24 months" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
5.	Flatfoot (Flat Feet) 10/01/2007 - "In a supple stage II flatfoot, naviculocuneiform arthrodesis with appropriate ancillary soft tissue augmentation and other adjunctive osseous procedures has proven effective with reproducible success" 12/01/2002 - "In rheumatoid flatfoot, arthrodesis of the hindfoot with lengthening of the lateral column and reorientation of joint congruency represent the gold standard of treatment" 12/01/2000 - "Calcaneocuboid alignment compared with flatfoot improved after calcaneocuboid distraction arthrodesis in adduction, plantar flexion, and eversion, but compared with an intact foot was overcorrected in all three planes of motion" 09/01/2005 - "BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine the overall first tarsometatarsal joint (TMTJ) union rate in patients after they had a modified Lapidus procedure or a TMTJ arthrodesis as part of a flatfoot reconstruction" 08/01/1999 - "An in vitro study of the adult acquired flatfoot identifies an anteroposterior subluxation of the subtalar articulation that can be corrected durably and reliably through a repositional talocalcaneal arthrodesis" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
