Genicular Nerve Block After Open Reduction Internal Fixation of Tibial Plateau
Recruiting
The investigators are conducting this research study to find better ways of treating pain following knee surgery. There is a standard (accepted) approach, which involves injection of numbing medication into the area around the participant surgical incision. The investigators hope to discover if providing numbing medication to a nerve that controls pain in a larger area of the knee (a nerve block), might be better at post-operative pain control.

Objective Assessment of Outcomes Following Immediate Lymphatic Reconstruction / LYMPHA
Recruiting
Immediate lymphatic reconstruction (ILR) is a novel surgical approach performed at the time of initial lymph node dissection with the goal of preventing lymphedema. It involves the identification of lymphatic channels that are transected after lymph node dissection and microsurgical anastomosis of one or more lymphatic channel with a local recipient vein to re-direct upper extremity lymphatic drainage. Although ILR carries significant promise in prevention of lymphedema, there is a lack of high-... Read More
