Medial swivel dislocation with impacted navicular bone into the talar head: A case report.

Medial swivel dislocation is a rare subtype of midtarsal bone dislocation, mostly associated with fracture rather than isolated dislocation. It is caused by medially or laterally direct forces to the midfoot. In case of failed closed reduction of the deformity, the patient should undergo open reduction and stabilization of the injury as soon as possible.

Isolated myeloid sarcoma of the tibia: A case report.

Introduction: Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary tumor composed of malignant myeloid cells that most commonly arise in patients previously diagnosed with myeloproliferative disease. However, they can still occur in isolation and without bone marrow disease.

Case Presentation: An 8-year-old girl who had a history of acute myeloid leukemia and was off treatment for four years presented to the clinic with a history of on and off left knee swelling and pain without any direct trauma to the knee over the last two years.

Disability-adjusted life years from bone and joint infections associated with antimicrobial resistance: an insight from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study.

Purpose: Bone and joint infections, complicated by the burgeoning challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), pose significant public health threats by amplifying the disease burden globally. We leveraged results from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) to explore the impact of AMR attributed to bone and joint infections in terms of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), elucidating the contemporary status and temporal trends.

Methods: Utilizing GBD 2019 data, we summarized the burden of bone and joint infections attributed to AMR across 195 countries and territories in the 30 years from 1990 to 2019.

Correlation between anthropometric measurements and graft size in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the correlation between anthropometric measurements and graft size in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

Methods: A systematic search of Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted for observational studies published until March 2023 that reported the relationship between anthropometric data [height, weight, body mass index (BMI), age, gender, thigh length, and circumference] and ACL graft size. Correlation coefficients (COR) and their associated 95% confidence intervals were used as the primary effect size.

Vanishing solitary osteochondroma of humerus following trauma: A case report.

Osteochondromas are the most common benign tumors of the bone. Mainly these lesions affect the long-bone metaphysis and usually are asymptomatic. When complications develop from these lesions, then they become symptomatic and surgical resection may become indicated.

Bilateral pelvic crescent fracture combined with left acetabular fracture: A case report.

Introduction: Crescent fracture-dislocations are subtype of lateral compression fractures of the pelvic ring, which usually occur following high-velocity impacts. Bilateral crescent fractures are rare entities, with a limited number of cases reported in the literature. Of those reported, none were combined with an acetabulum fracture.

Appropriateness of carpal tunnel syndrome management compared with the AAOS appropriate use criteria: A retrospective review across various specialties.

Purpose: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common peripheral nerve entrapment disorder among adults that causes upper-extremity disability. The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) developed an evidence-based appropriate use criteria (AUC) for the management of CTS. This study aimed to assess the appropriateness of our practice and the usability of the AUC through comparing the actual management provided at our institution with that recommended by the AUC.

Rare presentation of intra-spinal extradural grade 1 chondrosarcoma: A case report.

Introduction: Lumbar Spine Chondrosarcomas are rare entities that accounts for less than 10% of all spinal Chondrosarcomas, patients can present with symptoms of nerve root irritation secondary to direct compression caused by the tumor mass effect. Radiologically these tumors are destructive in nature with soft tissues classifications, and the treatment of choice for it is complete surgical excision, however in some scenarios they are difficult to access and complete resection becomes not feasible.

Presentation Of Case: A 37 years old male, presented to our spine clinic with chief complaint of chronic low back pain with radicular symptoms, normal power in both lower limbs, while his radiological evaluation showed intra-spinal extra-dural Chondrosarcoma arising from the posterior cortex of the 5th vertebral body, for which he underwent surgical decompression of the lumbar canal with resection of the lesion and unilateral stabilization of the spinal segment.

The Impact of Prior Bariatric Surgery on Outcomes After Spine Surgery: A Systematic Review and meta-Analysis.

Study Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To compare outcomes and complication rates in patients undergoing bariatric surgery (BS) prior to spine surgery.

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines comparing the outcomes of spine surgery between subjects with prior bariatric surgery to those who were considered obese with no prior bariatric surgery.

Bilateral femoral neck fracture following a convulsion in the presence of chronic kidney disease. A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Bilateral femoral neck fractures in young adults are a rare entity. It is usually associated with pre-existing metabolic diseases, such as osteoporosis, renal osteodystrophy, or hypocalcemic seizures. Hence, it is essential in such cases to look for other associated injuries following a traumatic event.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for the treatment of Steinberg I and II avascular necrosis of the femoral head: a report of fifteen cases and literature review.

Purpose: This article aimed to report a case series of pre-collapse avascular necrosis of the femoral head treated with hyperbaric oxygen and review the most recent literature on the topic.

Methods: The data from a prospectively followed registry of 15 patients with Steinberg I and II avascular necrosis of the femoral head was collected. Functional outcome, pain scores, and radiographic changes at an average follow-up of 22 months were analyzed and reported.

Functional and Radiological Outcomes of Combined Anterior-Posterior Approach Versus Posterior Alone in Management of Isthmic Spondylolisthesis. A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Lumbar isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS) in adults is defined as the forward slippage of a vertebra onto the top of the vertebra, resulting from a defect in the pars intraarticular, and can be low grade or high grade. Persistent back pain or neurological deficit are indications for surgical intervention. Surgery can be done from back, front, or both, with or without fusion, instrumentation, or decompression, and short or long segment.
