Extensive Emphysematous Osteomyelitis Attributed to Escherichia coli Infection: Radiological Insights and Detailed Case Report of a Rare Entity.

Emphysematous osteomyelitis (EO) is a rare and severe bone infection characterized by the presence of gas within the bone and surrounding soft tissues, commonly caused by gas-forming bacteria. We present a case of an elderly patient with extensive EO due to  infection. The patient exhibited systemic signs of infection and severe localized pain.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Based Morphometric Analyses of the Bicruciate Injury of the Knee: Is There a Clue in the Distal Femur?

Background: The morphology of the distal femur's intercondylar notch has been implicated in the susceptibility to and severity of cruciate ligament injuries. While previous research has primarily focused on isolated anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries, the relationship between notch morphology and combined cruciate injuries remains less understood.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the association between femoral notch morphology and the severity of combined cruciate ligament injuries in adult males.

Evaluation of Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in the Management of Intracapsular Fracture Neck of Femur in Elderly Treated With Cemented Bipolar Prosthesis.

Introduction: Hip fractures, including femoral neck fractures (FNFs), represent a significant health challenge globally. Fractures of the hip can be categorized as either intracapsular or extracapsular. Among the elderly, FNFs are particularly prevalent and account for approximately half of all hip fractures.

An Uncommon Coexistence of Dural and Intraventricular Meningiomas.

Meningiomas, originating from the meninges encasing the brain and spinal cord, are the most prevalent primary intracranial tumors, constituting around 40% of all such tumors. These tumors primarily manifest within the dura mater, the outermost meningeal layer, and occasionally in locations such as the ventricular system. However, the concurrent presence of dural and intraventricular meningiomas is exceedingly rare.

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson Syndrome as a Rare Cause of Cerebral Hemiatrophy: Insights From a Case Series.

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome (DDMS) is an uncommon neurological condition marked by changes in the skeletal structure, cerebral hemiatrophy, and ventriculomegaly. Manifesting primarily in early life, DDMS presents with seizures, hemiplegia, facial asymmetry, and intellectual disabilities. There are congenital and acquired types of DDMS, with ischemia being the most common cause of the latter.
