Cuboid fracture: An extremely rare cause of limping in a 2-year-old child.

The purpose of this case report is to raise awareness of an extremely rare cause of limping, in young children. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion of a possible cuboid fracture when evaluating a young child who presents with limping.

A study of the possible effect of abnormal patella height on meniscal tears.

Objective: Patellar height is key to knee biomechanics. Variations (alta/baja) have been associated with instability/dislocations, ACL ruptures etch. The effect of abnormal patella height and meniscal lesions is not clear yet; this is a first investigation of this relation.

Traumatic Elbow Mediolateral Investigatory Screening: The value of the sitting axial mediolateral projection in the diagnosis of radial head fractures.

Background: Elbow injuries are frequently encountered in hospital practice, while radial head fractures are the commonest result of such trauma. Diagnosis of radial head fractures is based on clinical and radiographic evaluation with a number of X-ray projections being available. A combination of views is chosen, comprising of routine elbow series screenings and modified techniques, as well as the assistance of the fat-pat sign; never the less fractures can still be occult on X-rays.
