A Novel Diabetic Arthritic Model in Rats Induced by Streptozotocin, High-Fat Diet, and Complete Freund's Adjuvant.

Introduction: Ankle arthrodesis is one of the treatments of choice, particularly in late-stage and unstable diabetic Charcot arthropathy. Unfortunately, poor healing capacity might play a role in the high nonunion rate (10-40%). The advancement in regenerative medicine opens a new horizon for enhancing fusion after ankle arthrodesis in patients with poor healing capacity.

Intramuscular haemangioma of abductor hallucis muscle - A rare case report.

Introduction: Haemangioma is a slow growing benign soft tissue tumor and its presentation in the foot is rare. Intramuscular haemangioma (IH) are usually found before 30 years of age, with gender predominance is still inconclusive.

Presentation Of Case: An 18-year-old woman came with pain and mass in the left foot for the past 3 years.

Hypersensitivity to orthopaedic implant manifested as erythroderma: Timing of implant removal.

Introduction: Incidence of hypersensitivity to orthopaedic implant, once estimated in less than 1% of population, recently has increased to 10%. Controversies about the timing of implant removal remain, especially due to the fact that implant hypersensitivity may be a contributing factor to implant failure. We present a case report and literature reviews to establish the decision making for the timing of implant removal in the presence of implant hypersensitivity.

Minimal Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) Technique Using Anterolateral Approach for Treating Closed Proximal Humerus Fracture.

Abstract: Proximal humerus fracture is the second most common fracture of the upper extremity and presents several unique problems such as anatomical complexity, high risk of avascular necrosis, minimal bone stock for purchase, significant morbidity, and lack of a universally accepted treatment. Recent treatments for proximal humerus fractures include use of minimally invasive plate osteosynthysis (MIPO). The aim of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate the outcomes of our less invasive technique using a modified anterolateral approach for treatment of proximal humerus fractures.
