Autologous vascular proximal fibular graft in the treatment of giant cell tumor of the distal radius-a case report.

Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) represents an intermediate, locally aggressive tumor, with a peak of incidence in the third decade of life with female predominance (2:1). The distal radius is the third most common localization and especially challenging in the treatment is saving the wrist joint function. In this report, we present a case of a 32-year-old patient diagnosed with a giant cell tumor of the distal radius, primarily treated with curettage of the bone.

Analysis of Results After Surgical Application of Bone Marrow Aspirate Stem Cell Concentrate in the Treatment of Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head.

: Avascular necrosis or osteonecrosis of the femoral head is defined as a pathological process that results in a critical reduction in the blood supply to the hip head with increased intraosseous pressure. Avascular necrosis is a multifactorial disease. The treatment used so far consists of transosseous decompression of the femoral head and is the most commonly used method in the early stages of osteonecrosis.

Ultrasound-guided Biopsy of Musculoskeletal Soft-tissue Tumors: Basic Principles, Usefulness and Limitations.

The aim of this article is to provide a short review of the literature concerning the basic principles, usefulness and limitations of ultrasound-guided biopsy of musculoskeletal soft-tissue tumors, with particular focus on core needle biopsies. Musculoskeletal soft-tissue tumors represent a rare and complex group of heterogeneous lesions. Prompt diagnosis of these uncommon lesions can improve the outcome and increase the patient survival rate.

Percutaneous Imaging-Guided versus Open Musculoskeletal Biopsy: Concepts and Controversies.

Bone and soft tissue tumors are a largely heterogeneous group of tumors. Biopsy of musculoskeletal (MSK) tumors is sometimes a challenging procedure. Although the open biopsy is still considered the gold standard for the biopsy of MSK lesions, core needle biopsy can replace it in most cases, with similar accuracy and a low complication rate.

The Influence of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Remnant on Postoperative Clinical Results in Patients with Remnant Preserving Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Background: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) remnants have important biomechanical, vascular and proprioceptive function.

Aim: To determine the influence of the ACL residual remnants after partial and complete ACL ruptures on postoperative clinical results in patients with remnant preserving ACL reconstruction.

Patients And Methods: The study included 66 patients divided into two groups.
