Introduction And Objectives: Accurate measurement of femoral torsion is essential to diagnosing, correct surgical decision-making, and the preoperative planning of derotational osteotomies in a subgroup of anterior knee pain patients and patellofemoral instability. Several measurement techniques have been described with great variability in the magnitude of the values. Moreover, none of them can predict the effect of rotational osteotomy on the femoral version value.

Introduction: The classical treatment of osteosarcoma used to be ablative surgery. After the appearance of adjuvant chemotherapy, survival in these patients increased, and with it, the number of affected school age children with high growth potential. Hence, reconstructive surgeries are currently proposed instead of conventional bone resections due to greater limb preservation and better functional status than those achieved with conventional amputations.

Article Synopsis
  • - Multifocal osteonecrosis involves bone tissue death at three or more sites and is rare, accounting for less than 3% of all osteonecrosis cases.
  • - It's often linked to systemic diseases, with high-risk groups including those with lupus, transplant recipients, and individuals on long-term glucocorticoid therapy.
  • - The article discusses a young woman with unique hemostatic factors who developed osteonecrosis in her hips and shoulders, along with a comprehensive review of its causes and treatment options.
