Total Hip Arthroplasty in a Patient With a Large Proximal Femur Aneurysmal Bone Cyst: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare benign bone lesions with a predilection for the metaphysis of long bones. They are often cystic, expansive, and osteolytic and may result in bony deformity. In general, there remains debate about optimal treatment for ABCs; however, the mainstay typically consists of a combination of curettage, bone grafting, and considering the need for internal fixation and osteotomies.

Intraoperative Tibia Fractures During Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty.

Intraoperative tibia fractures during primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are a known complication, however, the management options and outcome are poorly represented in the orthopedic literature. We performed a thorough literature review and detailed two cases of intraoperative tibia fractures during primary TKA at our institution to determine the mechanism behind these injuries and the optimal treatment strategy. We describe one case of intraoperative tibia fracture during primary posterior stabilized (PS) TKA and one case during primary cruciate retaining TKA.

Tibia Stress Fracture and Subsequent Nonunion Associated With High Morbidity Following Vascularized Fibula Graft Harvest.

There is little in the literature about tibial stress fracture after partial fibulectomy. As fibula strut grafting and vascularized fibula flap grafting becomes more common in the field of reconstructive surgery, the incidence of this complication will likely rise. The authors present the case of a 54-year-old woman with tibial stress fracture and subsequent nonunion following vascularized fibula graft harvest.

Traumatic Pelvic Ring Injury following Childbirth with Complete Pubic Symphysis Diastasis.

Case: Traumatic pelvic ring injury following childbirth is a rare but debilitating condition. We present a case of a 28-year-old female who sustained a traumatic pelvic ring injury following childbirth with a complete pubic symphysis separation of 5.6 cm treated successfully with nonoperative management.
