Primary cutaneous cribriform carcinoma (PCCC) is an extremely rare carcinoma of the sweat glands. In this case report, we present a 41-year-old man with PCCC in the heel. The patient had heel pain for 10 months, and his complaints had increased in the past 2 months.

Bizarre Parosteal Osteochondromatous Proliferation (Nora's Lesion) of the Foot: A Case Report and Literature Review of Nora's Lesion of the Foot.

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) or Nora's lesion is a rare, benign, but locally aggressive tumor. We present a case of a 45-year-old patient with progressive swelling of his toe for four years, pain, and difficulty with shoe wear. The lesion was excised after adequate evaluation and the resection histopathology was compatible with Nora's lesion.

Chondromyxoid Fibroma of the Calcaneus: A Rare Case Report.

Chondromyxoid fibroma (CMF) of the calcaneus is extremely rare. We report a case of CMF of the calcaneus in a 34-year-old female. She had foot pain for one year and had increased pain for the last two months.

Features of Spinal Metastases: A Retrospective View.

Backround: The present study aimed to determine the frequency of spinal metastases, to evaluate the features of spinal metastases, and to reveal clues to shed light on the origin of spinal metastases with unknown primary.

Methods: The data of patients who were followed up with the diagnosis of cancer in Istanbul Oncology Hospital between 2017 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 156 patients with spinal metastases and without visceral metastases were included in the study by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Case Report of a Posterior Malleolus Metastasis: A Very Rare Metastasis Localization.

Metastasis of the distal tibia is quite rare. In this article, we present the case of a 58-year-old woman with distal tibial metastasis located in the posterior malleous caused by breast cancer. She had left ankle pain and nonweightbearing status that had been ongoing for 2 months and showed progression.

Bone metastasis: evaluation of 1100 patients with breast cancer.

The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the demographics and the clinical characteristics of breast cancer (BC) patients with bone metastasis (BM). The study included 1100 BC patients, of whom 174 had BMs and 926 had no BMs. Immunohistochemical methods were employed to understand estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor (PgR) receptor levels, Ki-67 protein levels and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression levels.

Posterior Border Distance: An Effective Diagnostic Measurement for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Using Ultrasonography.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to define posterior border distance (PBD), which represents an ultrasonographic diagnosing method of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and to determine the reliability of PBD in comparison with electromyography (EMG) results. Methods Thirty-three patients (mean age: 51.8 ± 9.

Radiologic and Demographic Characteristics of Patients With Plantar Calcaneal Spur.

Many people with heel pain in the general population are often diagnosed with plantar calcaneal spurs (PCS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiological and demographic characteristics of PCS patients and to compare the differences with the control group. In 2018, 420 patients with weightbearing lateral ankle X-ray images were included in the study.

Effects of body mass index on outcomes of total knee arthroplasty.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to group the patients with total knee arthroplasty(TKA) surgery according to the World Health Organization (WHO) obesity classification and to evaluate the effects of body mass index (BMI) on complication rates, the functional and clinical outcomes of the patients after TKA.

Methods: Between 2011 and 2018, 588 patients who underwent TKA by a single surgeon were retrospectively evaluated. According to WHO's classification criteria, 588 patients were divided into 5 groups such as normal (< 25.

The effect of platelet-rich plasma on fracture healing in long-bone pseudoarthrosis.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on fracture union rate and fracture union time in pseudoarthrosis surgery and to evaluate the clinical and functional results of the patients.

Methods: The patients who were undergone pseudoarthrosis surgery between 2011 and 2014 were evaluated retrospectively. Twenty-four patients were included in the study.

Pathological Clavicle Fracture: Initial Presentation of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common tumor of the liver and accounts for 3% of all gastrointestinal tumors. Bone metastasis due to ICC is extremely rare. In this case report, a patient with pathological clavicle fracture as the first presentation of ICC was reported.

Outcomes of isokinetic tests and functional assessment of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Transtibial versus single anatomic femoral tunnel technique.

Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of the transtibial and anatomical femoral single tunnel surgical techniques in ACL reconstruction.

Methods: A total of 30 patients, with 16 patients (15 males and 1 female; mean age: 27.2 ± 7.
