The Effects of Ultrasound-guided Corticosteroid Injection Compared to Mesenchymal Stem Cell Injection in Patients with Grade II and III Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Double-blind Controlled Trial.

Objective: This study investigated the effects of a single dose injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) under ultrasound guidance for knee osteoarthritis (KOA).

Design: The study included 30 subjects in the intervention group, who received the MSC injection and 27 in the control group who received triamcinolone. Various outcome measures, including pain levels, range of motion (ROM), and MRI parameters, were evaluated before the intervention and at different time points after treatment.

Metatarsal Aneurysmal Bone Cysts Treated With En Bloc Resection and Reconstruction With Fibular Allograft.

Background: Treatment of Primary metatarsal aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) with curettage and bone grafting unfortunately has a high recurrence rate, particularly in short tubular bones. This study presents a 16-year experience treating ABCs in the bones of the foot at an orthopaedic oncology referral center. Treatment involved en bloc resection and reconstruction of the defect with fibular allograft in all cases.

Pre-aspiration outpatient ultrasound can accurately predict dry taps in prosthetic hips suspected of infection; a prospective study.

Introduction: Aspiration represents the most potent method for exploring the potential occurrence of Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI). However, dry taps are common. While aspiration under ultrasound (US) guidance in the radiology department has become increasingly popular, hip aspiration is still routinely conducted in the operating room (OR) under x-ray guidance in numerous medical centers.

Presentation of Adult-onset Asthma and Periocular Xanthogranuloma with Intermediate Uveitis and Hodgkin's Lymphoma: A Case Report.

Purpose: To report a case of adult-onset asthma and periocular xanthogranuloma (AAPOX) in a patient with intermediate uveitis and a history of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL).

Case Report: A 51-year-old man with a past medical history of HL presented with blurred vision, asthma, and bilateral yellowish eyelid lesions. The eyelid lesions and asthma appeared 10 years after being diagnosed with HL.

Elbow calcific tendinosis initially detected by ultrasonography: a case report.

Introduction: Calcific tendinosis is a common condition caused by the deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals within the tendons that can impact any tendinous insertion. In this situation, ultrasound (US) may be a viable imaging modality in addition to radiography.

Case Presentation: A 56-year-old Iranian male presented with left elbow pain.
