A Retrospective Audit of Demography and Different Surgical Modalities Adopted for Giant Cell Tumor of Bone in Eastern India.

Background and objective There is scarce data on demography and different surgical treatment modalities for giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) from eastern India. In light of this, the present study aimed to examine the demographic characteristics, different surgical treatment modalities, and recurrence rate of GCTB at a tertiary care institute in Bihar. Materials and methods A retrospective audit of 52 GCTB patients who were treated at the center from January 2016 to December 2020 was conducted.

A Retrospective Cohort Analysis of Limb Salvage Surgery Using Mega Prosthesis in Bone Tumours at a Tertiary Care Centre in Eastern India.

Background The method known as "limb salvage surgery" (LSS) aids in the removal of extremity tumours, and reconstruction is completed with satisfactory oncologic, functional, and cosmetic outcomes. Oncologic clearance is given first priority, followed by functional outcomes. Worldwide, the trend has already shifted away from amputations and toward limb salvage surgery for eligible patients due to efficient chemotherapy regimens, improved imaging techniques, precise administration of enhanced radiation, better reconstructive choices, and developments in bio-engineering.

Distal Tibial Epiphyseal Separation during Ponseti Casting in a Non-idiopathic Clubfoot- ACase Report.

Introduction: Non-idiopathic clubfeet are more rigid compared to idiopathic clubfeet and usually require operative correction. Recent reports favor Ponseti casting in these feet. Iatrogenic fractures during and after casting have been reported in the literature but epiphyseal separation and subperiosteal ossification have not been reported earlier.
