A Case of Ketorolac-Induced Aseptic Meningitis.

Drug-induced aseptic meningitis is a rare condition that occurs because of an adverse reaction to medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and antibiotics. Unlike bacterial or viral meningitis, aseptic meningitis is not caused by an infection, but rather by an inflammatory response. This condition creates a challenge since patients with aseptic meningitis often present with classic clinical meningeal symptoms, including fever, headache, and neck stiffness.

Inter-relationships of Metacarpals 1 to 5, Regarding Their Length, Metaphyseal Midshaft Width, Articular Surface Area of Head and Base, Age, and Sex: A Cadaveric Study.

Metacarpal factures are common, comprising up to 50% of hand fractures. More work is needed to further our understanding of metacarpal anatomy to improve fixation techniques and reduce postoperative complications following surgical implants. The purpose of this anatomic study was to evaluate the length, midshaft metaphyseal width, and area of the articular surface of the head (AH) and base (AB) of metacarpals 1 to 5.
