Investigation of Giant Cell Tumor of Bone and Tissue Engineering Approaches for the Treatment of Giant Cell Tumor of Bone.

Primary bone tumors such as Ewing sarcoma, osteosarcoma, and chondrosarcoma, secondary bone tumors developed from progressive malignancies, and metastasized bone tumors are more prevalent and studied descriptively through biology and medical research. Less than 0.2% of cancer diagnoses are caused by rare bone-originating tumors, which despite being rare are particularly difficult due to their high death rates and substantial disease burden.

The outcomes of surgical treatment for lateral Hoffa fracture nonunions.

Introduction: Lateral Hoffa nonunion are rare injuries. A significant percentage of these nonunions are due to missed acute lateral Hoffa fractures. Operative management of these injuries is difficult and complicated by the presence of bone loss, infection, and soft-tissue contractures.

The radial nerve at revision/redo surgery - using the lower lateral cutaneous nerve to prevent a postoperative radial nerve deficit.

Background: The posterior approach to the humeral shaft is commonly used for surgical procedures on the humeral shaft. We present our experiences using the modification of the surgical exposure described by Gerwin M. which we have found useful at the time of revision surgery.

Incidence and predictors of radial nerve palsy with the anterolateral brachialis splitting approach to the humeral shaft.

Purpose: Fractures of the humeral shaft are common and account for 3%-5% of all orthopedic injuries. This study aims to estimate the incidence of radial nerve palsy and its outcome when the anterior approach is employed and to analyze the predictive factors.

Methods: The study was performed in the department of orthopaedics unit of a tertiary care trauma referral center.

Functional outcome of knee arthrodesis with a monorail external fixator.

Several methods for obtaining knee arthrodesis have been described in the literature and world; over, the commonest cause for arthrodesis is a failed arthroplasty. Less commonly, as in this series, post-infective or traumatic causes may also require a knee fusion wherein arthroplasty may not be indicated. We present salient advantages along with the radiological and functional outcome of twenty four patients treated with a single monorail external fixator.
