Colostrum is essential for the survival and development of newborn mammals. This primary source of nourishment during the first days of infant life is rich in functional components conductive to the enhancement of neonate immunity and growth. Compared with mature milk, a higher protein and peptide content is observed in colostrum, whilst it is low in fat and carbohydrates.

Delayed fracture healing can have devastating functional consequences, including pseudoarthrosis. Many factors can contribute to delayed healing, including decreased vascularity, micro-motion at the fracture site, large fracture gaps, multiple traumas at the same site, compromised metabolic status, surgical complications, and other conditions. A 61-year-old female patient was referred to our hospital with left distal humeral pseudarthrosis, accompanied by chronic pain and disability.

Background: Lung cancer is associated with a high incidence of mortality worldwide. Molecular mechanisms governing the disease have been explored by genomic studies; however, several aspects remain elusive. The integration of genomic profiling with in-depth proteomic profiling has introduced a new dimension to lung cancer research, termed proteogenomics.

We present the case of a 56-year-old male patient diagnosed with Hürthle cell carcinoma (HCC) that developed widespread metastasis in bone, lung, and lymph nodes with a larger tumor located in the right tibia. The patient was only disturbed by the pain, discomfort, and disability linked to the tibial metastasis. After careful consideration, the best course of action was considered to be the surgical excision of the proximal right tibia with arthroplasty using the C LINK Megaprosthesis tumor revision system.

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) implant survival time is determined by various patient and implant-related factors and varies significantly in recent worldwide reports. In our study, we have included 247 TKA revisions in 203 patients performed in our hospital over the last 20 years. Multiple etiologies of revisions were identified and classified into 10 categories.
