Management and clinical-outcome of juxta-articular osteoid osteoma lesions.

Introduction: Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign intra-osseous lesion. The lesion is painful and usually diagnosed by x-ray, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). When the lesion is juxta-articular or intra-capsular, the symptoms may present differently than the typical OO lesion and make diagnosis more challenging.

Complications and survival rates of subtrochanteric fractures are similar between short and long intramedullary nail fixation and independent of weight-bearing.

Purpose: Intertrochanteric fractures are treated surgically, allowing rapid weight-bearing to improve ambulation and lower complications and mortality. Subtrochanteric fractures are mechanically less stable and are traditionally treated with a non-weight approach and longer intramedullary nails. This study compared immediate weight-bearing versus limited weight-bearing and different intramedullary nail lengths regarding patient outcomes.

A unique presentation of the rare Nora's lesion, symptomatic bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation: A case report.

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations, also known as Nora's lesions, are rare benign tumors with a high recurrence rate. They are often difficult to identify because of their similar appearance to other tumors. We describe a 25-year-old healthy female patient with bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations in an uncommon location on the pelvic ilium, presenting with unique clinical findings of abdominal pain and femoral paresthesia and showing atypical radiographic findings.

A Multivariate Meta-Analysis for Optimizing Cell Counts When Using the Mechanical Processing of Lipoaspirate for Regenerative Applications.

Unlabelled: Lipoaspirate has become the preferred source for regenerative cells. The mechanical processing of lipoaspirate has advantages over enzymatic processing but has a lower yield of regenerative cells. A review of the literature shows different techniques of extraction, but the ideal method or combination has not been determined.
