A Presenile Patient with Filar Lipoma Who Developed Tethered Spinal Cord Syndrome Triggered by Lumbar Canal Stenosis.

Lumbar canal stenosis (LCS) has been reported as a precipitating factor by which a tethered spinal cord, which is asymptomatic during childhood, develops into tethered cord syndrome (TCS) in adulthood. However, only a few reports on surgical strategies for such cases are available. A 64-year-old woman presented with unbearable pain in the left buttock and dorsal aspect of the thigh approximately 1 year ago.

Solitary fibrous tumor of the pineal region in the elderly: A case report.

A Dorsally Located Endodermal Cyst in the Foramen Magnum Mimicking an Arachnoid Cyst: A Case Report.

High prevalence of acetabular retroversion in both affected and unaffected hips after Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease.

Background: Acetabular retroversion is observed in hips after various pediatric hip diseases. This study sought to examine the frequency of acetabular retroversion in both affected and unaffected hips after Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease and its correlation with the prominence of the ischial spine.

Methods: We retrospectively investigated the version and morphological features of the acetabulum using pelvic radiographs after Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (107 affected hips treated non-operatively and 72 unaffected hips from the contralateral side).
