The risk for the presence of denudated cartilage was greater in the high uptake group (odds ratio = 5.89). There was no association between clinical outcomes and visual grading of patellar cartilage degeneration or the degree of BTU on SPECT/CT. The visual assessment of the degree of cartilage degeneration underneath the patella and preoperative SPECT/CT evaluation of the PF joint were not predictive of clinical outcome after TKA with unresurfaced patella.Roll-over trauma and associated traumatic entrapments frequently result in serious polytraumatisation. In rare cases, severe extrathoracic compressions and a protracted entrapment period can lead to Perthes syndrome, also known as traumatic asphyxia. The Perthes syndrome manifests itself by a triad of craniocervical cyanosis, facial petechiae and subconjunctival haemorrhages, enabling a rapid diagnosis based on these typical clinical features. In addition, a contusion of the heart, lungs or even the liver may occur as well as neurological and other ophthalmological complications. An early identification of this condition, the elevation of the upper body to allow adequate venous drainage in addition to ensuring sufficient oxygenation are essential for optimal therapy. In general, no long-term complications are to be expected for Perthes syndrome. The stasis usually disappears completely within a few months.Uncontrolled high blood sugar can be dangerous for diabetics throughout the perioperative period - in particular, when blood glucose levels exceed a threshold of 250 mg/dl or HbA1c levels are higher than 8.5 - 9%. In such cases, all elective surgery should be withheld to minimize the risk of severe complications. Due to their cardiovascular comorbidities, diabetics are commonly overrepresented in hospitals, tend to
