Concern for infection is a common presentation in pediatric emergency departments. Clinical signs of cellulitis in pediatric patients often lead to a workup for osteoarticular infection despite a lack of evidence to suggest that the two entities commonly co-exist. With this in mind, we asked: (1) What is the rate of concomitant cellulitis and osteoarticular infections in the pediatric population? (2) What factors are associated with concomitant cellulitis and osteoarticular infections? This is a retrospective study of 482 pediatric patients who underwent MRI to evaluate for either cellulitis or an osteoarticular infection at a single tertiary care children's hospital.

- MPFL reconstruction has become a common surgery for treating knee instability caused by recurring dislocations, with recent studies showing low recurrence rates and good patient outcomes.!
- This study focused on evaluating the success of isolated MPFL reconstruction in patients with trochlear dysplasia by reviewing cases from patients who had the surgery and followed up for at least two years.!
- Results showed significant improvement in patient-reported scores and a high return-to-sport rate, suggesting that isolated MPFL reconstruction is effective for patients without severe anatomical issues like high TT-TG distances.!
