Genicular Artery Embolisation in Patients with Osteoarthritis of the Knee (GENESIS 2): Protocol for a Double-Blind Randomised Sham-Controlled Trial.

Knee osteoarthritis is a leading cause of chronic disability and economic burden. In many patients who are not surgical candidates, existing treatment options are insufficient. Clinical evidence for a new treatment approach, genicular artery embolisation (GAE), is currently limited to single arm cohort, or small population randomised studies.

Hybrid Fixation in Pediatric Forearm Fractures, does it Predispose to Non-union? A Case Report and Literature Review.

Introduction: Pediatric fracture non-union is rare, with limited published evidence available. Whilst there have been certain predisposing factors identified throughout case reports/series, we present a case, hypothesizing a previously undocumented risk factor for non-union.

Case Report: A 9-year-old boy sustained closed, diaphyseal both bone forearm fractures.

Bilateral simultaneous traumatic upper arm compartment syndromes associated with anabolic steroids.

Background: Acute compartment syndrome, a surgical emergency, is defined as increased pressure in an osseofascial space. The resulting reduction of capillary perfusion to that compartment requires prompt fasciotomy. Treatment delay has a poor prognosis, and is associated with muscle and nerve ischemia, resultant infarction, and late-onset contractures.

Deep venous thrombosis in a child: an unusual presentation of an osteochondroma.

Deep vein thrombosis is very uncommon in the pediatric population. We describe an unusual case of deep vein thrombosis caused by a femoral osteochondroma in a 13-year-old adolescent girl with known multiple hereditary exostoses. We discuss the optimum investigations to determine the site of venous obstruction, which is crucial when there are several osteochondromata in the affected limb, which could be implicated in causing the obstruction to venous flow.
