Instituto de Ortopedia e Traumatologia - HC/IOT

O Instituto de Ortopedia e Traumatologia (IOT) da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo - Hospital das Clínicas (FMUSP-HC), inaugurado em 1953, presta atendimento direcionado a pacientes com afecções ortopédicas e traumatológicas, tratando-se de um centro de referência para reimplante de membros.

Em modernas instalações, seu Pronto-socorro recebe pacientes para tratamento do trauma ortopédico de alta complexidade; além de possuir equipes atuantes em diversas subespecialidades (joelho, quadril, pé, mão, fisiatria, coluna, paralisia cerebral, tumores ósseos e reimplantes de membros e próteses), voltadas para o tratamento das diversas enfermidades do aparelho locomotor.

  1. Patient demographic and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of isolated posterolateral corner knee injuries

    ANNALS OF JOINT, v.8, 2023

    Background: Posterolateral stability of the knee is maintained by capsular, ligamentous and tendinous structures, which collectively are known as the posterolateral corner (PLC). Injuries to the PLC of the knee rarely occur without associated anterior (ACL) or posterior cruciate (PCL) ligament te...

  2. Comparative study of patients with midshaft clavicle fracture fixed with a locked plate via an open versus percutaneous approach

    INJURY-INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF THE CARE OF THE INJURED, v.54, suppl.6, article ID 110746, 6p, 2023

    Objective: To compare the results of surgical treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures, treated with the technique of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) with locking compression plate versus open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with locked plate. Methods: Quasi-randomized compa...

  3. Anterolateral Ligament and Kaplan Fiber Injury Both Occur Frequently in Acute Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Injured Knees

    JOURNAL OF CLINICAL MEDICINE, v.13, n.4, article ID 946, 11p, 2024

    Background and objectives: The association of ALL and KF injuries in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient knees remain topics of conflicting research despite improved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We aimed to evaluate the rate of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and Kaplan fibers (KF) i...

  4. Histological Compatibility in Distal Neurotizations: A Systematic Review

    INDIAN JOURNAL OF PLASTIC SURGERY, v.56, n.5, p.405-412, 2023

    INJURY-INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF THE CARE OF THE INJURED, v.54, suppl.6, article ID 110745, 5p, 2023

    Background: About 10% of ankle fractures are located above the syndesmosis, which causes injury to the ligament structure of the syndesmosis. There is no consensus regarding when to allow weight-bearing on the operated limb of patients who suffered ankle fractures requiring intraoperative fixatio...
