Giant Cell Tumor of Third Metacarpal: A Rare Case Report and Review of Literature.

Introduction: Giant cell tumor (GCT) or osteoclastoma is an osteolytic, mostly benign but locally aggressive tumor occurring in young adults at the meta-epiphyseal region of long bones such as lower end of the femur, upper end of the tibia, and lower end of the radius, and proximal humerus in descending order of frequency. Only 2% of all GCT of bone occur in hand. GCT of metacarpal (MC) has different characteristics than that of other long bones.

Steering the Charge Kinetics in Dual-Functional Photocatalysis by Surface Dipole Moments and Band Edge Modulation: A Defect Study in TiO-ZnS-rGO Composites.

Developing an efficient photocatalyst for concurrent hydrogen production and environmental remediation by using solar energy is a challenge. Defect engineering, although it offers a strategical promise to enhance the photocatalytic performance, has limitations that come from the ambiguity surrounding its role. In the current work, a comprehensive study on defects in promoting the charge transfer, band edge modulation, and surface reaction was carried out.

Minimally Invasive Total Hip Replacement in an Ipsilateral Post-traumatic above-knee Amputation: A Case Report.

Introduction: Total hip replacement (THR) is a highly successful operation in alleviating pain and improving the overall function of the hip, in end-stage arthritis of the hip, in otherwise fit patients. However, THR as a surgical option in post-traumatic hip arthritis with ipsilateral above-knee amputation is rarely reported.

Case Report: We are presenting a case report of a 30-year-old male, who had previously underwent an above-knee amputation due to road-traffic accident, presenting 24 h after the injury with segmental fracture femur and popliteal artery laceration, for which the limb could not be salvaged.

Complex Primary Total Knee Replacement (TKR) Using Prophylactic Gastrocnemius Flap and Rotating-Hinge Knee in Post-traumatic, Infective Arthritis of the Knee - A Case Report.

Introduction: Prophylactic gastrocnemius flap with primary rotating hinge knee is technically demanding in a case of neglected post-traumatic, infective arthritis of the knee, with challenges of compromised skin and soft tissues, articular bone defect, limb mal-alignment, gross instability, retained hardware and a contracted extensor mechanism with the patella fixed in the lateral gutter all in combination, is rarely reported. We report such a complex case in this study.

Case Report: We report a 48 year male patient with a history of fracture lateral femoral condyle of right knee due to road traffic accident 10 years back, for which he got operated with open reduction and internal fixation with cancellous screws, which subsequently got infected.

Effect of additives and steaming on quality of air dried noodles.

Texture is the most important property for consumer acceptance in cooked noodles. The air dried noodles are known to have higher cooking loss and cooking time, to that of instant fried noodles. But the fat content of instant fried noodles is more.
