Article Synopsis
- Primary bone tumors (PBTs) are rare but can lead to significant health risks, particularly due to their tendency to spread to the lungs, affecting survival rates based on tumor type and treatment options.
- Despite progress in treatment over the past 40 years, survival rates for PBT patients have not significantly improved, highlighting the need for new therapies.
- Current treatments include surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, with new promising immunotherapies like CAR-T cell therapy being explored to enhance patient outcomes in managing PBTs.
Objectives: To assess if Lisfranc injury can be detected by US with and without abduction stress.
Methods: Eight cadaveric feet were obtained. The following measurements were obtained in the uninjured feet: C1M2 and C1C2 intervals and TMT1 and TMT2 dorsal step-off distances.
Widely varying prevalence of vitamin D deficiency has been reported in patients presenting for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The primary aim of this study was to determine vitamin D levels in TKA patients and to compare to patients already routinely evaluated for vitamin D levels, patients with fragility fractures of the distal radius (DRF). There is significant overlap between patients presenting for TKA and with DRF, both in terms of medical comorbidities and overall health status, making these populations suitable comparative cohorts.
