Boyda Patellectomy

Boyd Pateletomy is a surgical procedure used to treat conditions of the knee joint. It was developed by American surgeon Boyd Patell in the 1960s.

Knee disease can be caused by various factors such as injury, arthritis, infections and other diseases. The disease can lead to pain, swelling and limited mobility in the knee joint. In some cases, the disease can lead to loss of knee function and disability.

A Boyd Patellectomy is a knee surgery that removes damaged or infected tissue in the knee joint and also removes some bone and ligaments that may be causing pain and limited mobility. The operation is performed under general anesthesia and takes about two hours. After surgery, the patient must stay in the hospital for one to two weeks.

The benefits of a Boyd Patellectomy are that it eliminates the cause of the disease and restores knee function. In addition, surgery may help reduce pain and improve mobility. However, like any surgical procedure, a Boyd Patellectomy has its risks and can lead to complications such as infection, bleeding, and damage to nerves and other tissues.

Boyd Patellectomy - Ungrafted benign solid neoplasm. Nonpurulent subactenal cyst. Most authors believe that cystic formations of quorchoma are the result of calcification of post-infectious inflammatory foci. Boyd's cyst deserves special attention - a young cyst formed by regression of an active infection or inflammatory process. The size of the cyst is small. The disease is diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound. If the doctor has suspicions about a cyst in the thickness of the head, a special galactogram may be prescribed, which will show the intensity of lymph flow in this place. Since the cyst is not filled with a contrast agent, it is very easy to find it using this method. Treatment of Boyd's cyst involves complete removal of the lesion and mandatory restoration of the function of the shoulder joint after surgery.
