Anterior tibiofemoral dislocation after total knee arthroplasty: A case report and literature review.

Anterior tibiofemoral dislocation after total knee arthroplasty is an extremely rare and serious event. Amongst English-published papers, we found only 15 relevant cases, 3 of which presented vascular complications. This manuscript aims to present a 77-year-old woman with a TC-Plus (Smith & Nephew) cruciate-retaining type in first time of knee prosthesis, who suffered an anterior tibiofemoral dislocation and were admitted to our hospital.

[Radiologic study on postnatal ossification of the first metatarsal bone].

Background: Classical descriptions of the ossification of the first metatarsal bone show the existence of a single proximal secondary ossification nucleus, mimicking the typical ossification of a phalanx. However, there are studies that show the presence of a second distal ossification nucleus and discuss its nature: epiphysis or pseudoepiphysis. The objective of the study is to establish the prevalence of such distal nucleus, determine its role in the growth of the radius and its relation with different qualitative variables.

[Choroidal neovascularization secondary to angioid streaks: A familial case report].

Case Report: We report a familial case of 2 brothers that suffered choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to angioid streaks. They were both treated with a monthly intravitreal injection of ranibizumab (Lucentis(®)) for 3 months. Visual acuity was stabilized and fluorescein angiography revealed complete resolution of CNV.

[Sauvé-Kapandji procedure in distal radioulnar joint disorders].

Objective: To evaluate the functional and subjective results of the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure as a treatment for distal radioulnar joint disorders.

Material And Method: A retrospective study was conducted on 27 patients treated using the Sauvé-Kapandji technique from January 2001 to March 2012. The aetiología, age, sex, laterality, articular movement, radiographical signs of joint degeneration, and cubitus varus, were analysed.

[HIV retinal vasculitis].

Case Report: We present a case of a 47 year-old woman, infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosed 5 years ago without receiving any treatment, who had floaters in her left eye. A peripheral retinal vasculitis was discovered and confirmed by an angiography. No source of infection was found, antiretroviral and corticosteroid treatment was given, with a complete resolution of the vasculitis.
