Surgical treatment for acute longitudinal radioulnar dissociation with humeral capitellar fracture: A case report.

Background: The forearm connects the wrist and elbow joints, and its stability depends on the two articulations, the proximal and distal radioulnar joints, and the interosseous membrane complex. The aim of this case report is to present an acute case of longitudinal radioulnar dissociation with humeral capitellum fracture.

Case Presentation: A 48-year-old man suffered longitudinal radioulnar dissociation with humeral capitellar fracture following a motorcycle accident.

Fertility preservation after gonadotoxic treatments for cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Background: The indications for fertility preservation (FP) have expanded. A few patients who underwent gonadotoxic treatment did not have the opportunity to receive FP, leading to concerns that these patients may develop premature ovarian insufficiency. However, the usefulness of FP in women with reduced ovarian reserve has also been questioned.

Sialidases and fucosidases of Akkermansia muciniphila are crucial for growth on mucin and nutrient sharing with mucus-associated gut bacteria.

The mucolytic human gut microbiota specialist Akkermansia muciniphila is proposed to boost mucin-secretion by the host, thereby being a key player in mucus turnover. Mucin glycan utilization requires the removal of protective caps, notably fucose and sialic acid, but the enzymatic details of this process remain largely unknown. Here, we describe the specificities of ten A.

Computed Tomography Evaluation of Distal Screw Penetration in Volar Locking Plate Fixation for Intra-Articular Distal Radius Fractures.

Purpose: Volar locking plate fixation for distal radius fractures (DRFs) is a technically demanding procedure with a risk of distal screw penetration through the dorsal cortex or the articular surface. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and details of distal screw penetration after volar locking plate fixation for intra-articular DRFs using a CT scan and to evaluate the relationship between the incidence of screw penetration and fracture comminution severity and the clinical complications of screw penetration.

Methods: This was a retrospective case series of 91 adult patients (mean age, 63 years; 27 men) who underwent volar locking plate fixation for intra-articular DRFs from 2015 to 2018.

Arthroscopic Reduction and Internal Fixation for Peritrapezium Traumatic Axial Carpal Dislocation: A Case Report.

Axial carpal dislocations and fracture-dislocations are rare injuries involving derangement of the carpal arches. Several surgical approaches have been reported as a means of treatment, including the use of closed or open reduction and internal fixation. However, to our knowledge, surgical treatment using arthroscopy has not been reported so far.
