Painful os peroneum syndrome (POPS) is one of the uncommon causes of lateral foot pain in orthopaedic practice. POPS encompasses a spectrum of pathologies such as an acute or a chronic fracture, peroneus longus tenosynovitis, and attrition or partial rupture of the peroneus longus tendon. Herein, we reported the first case of POPS secondary to hydroxyapatite deposition disease in a 32-year-old female patient.

Article Synopsis
  • An 88-year-old man experienced right groin pain due to a rare spontaneous tear in the iliopsoas tendon, which was diagnosed using ultrasound and MRI.
  • The ultrasound showed specific changes in the tendon, allowing for quick identification and a successful conservative treatment plan.
  • This case highlights the importance of considering spontaneous tendon tears in acute groin pain cases and demonstrates how ultrasound can be an effective and cost-efficient diagnostic tool in low-resource settings.

Article Synopsis
  • Shoulder arthroplasty is a common surgical solution for complex shoulder disorders, benefiting from innovative prosthesis designs and techniques that enhance patient outcomes and mobility.
  • Imaging techniques are essential for planning surgeries, guiding implant placement, and monitoring recovery, while CT-guided navigation improves surgical accuracy and reduces complications.
  • The study aims to explore different shoulder replacement methods—total shoulder replacement, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, and hemiarthroplasty—highlighting their advantages and limitations to enhance understanding among orthopaedic surgeons and radiologists.
