 Juniper Online Journal of Orthopedics & Orthoplastic Surgery Journal Abstract This article describes the method of preoperative testing of orthopedic implants material for compatibility with recipient’s body by using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and research the influence of tissue reactions on the implant’s surface. Keywords: Implants; Biocompatibility; Testing of material; Atomic force microscopy Introduction Every year orthopedic surgeons perform about 2,500,000 operation arthroplasty on various joints. In Europe in the past 5 years, the number of surgical operations in the endoprosthesis has increased by 80%. Orthopedic doctors used the big spectra of implants which consist of (endoprotes of the thigh, knee, shoulder, elbow joint, joints on the ankles and even small joints of the feet and fingers). Unfortunately, each of these implants is foreign body for our organism. R...

 Juniper Online Journal of Orthopedic & Orthoplastic Surgery Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent tumor worldwide. Triple-negative BCs are characterized by the negative estrogen and progesterone receptors and negative HER2, and represent 12-18% of all BCs. Breast cancer (breast cancer) is the most common oncological disease in women in the Uzbekistan. Data from epidemiological studies show that TNBC is more common in young women (up to 50 years) before menopause. In addition, the likelihood of TNBC is higher in women with early menarche, the first pregnancy at an earlier age, a short period of breastfeeding, and an increased body mass index. It should be not that the prognosis for TNBC does not depend on the degree of differentiation of the tumor, the presence of lymph node metastases, the size of the tumor or the treatment performed. The aggressiveness of TNBC was also confirm by the maximum risk of recurrence during the first three years after...

 Juniper Online Journal of Orthopedic & Orthoplastic Surgery-Juniper Publishers Abstract Introduction:   Limb amputation is a major life changing surgery used in many disciplines as a planned primary procedure or as a salvage procedure in tumours, trauma, and peripheral vascular disease. However, amputation carries a high rate of wound complications such as infection, dehiscence, and impaired healing. These complications may result in further surgical intervention, prolonged hospitalisation, and decreased quality of life for patients. Whilst the use of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in the treatment of chronic wounds has demonstrated improved wound outcomes by increased wound healing, wound shrinkage, and decreasing wound oedema; literature for the use of NPWT in amputations is scarce. Aim:   To evaluate the wound healing outcomes of patients after lower limb amputation treated with and without the use of NPWT. Patients for the intervention group were chosen f...
