Morel-Lavallée lesion associated with atypical skin damage: a case report.

A Morel-Lavallée lesion is a post-traumatic, soft tissue lesion that is little known and for which there is no standard treatment. This report describes the case of a 51-year-old man who presented with a large Morel-Lavallée lesion on the left calf that was not diagnosed on two visits to the emergency department. Given the deteriorating condition of the skin, we performed surgical drainage of the effusion because the skin was showing signs of major damage.

Percutaneous administration of allogeneic bone-forming cells for the treatment of delayed unions of fractures: a pilot study.

Background: Overall, 5-10% of fractures result in delayed unions or non-unions, causing major disabilities and a huge socioeconomic burden. Since rescue surgery with autologous bone grafts can cause additional challenges, alternative treatment options have been developed to stimulate a deficient healing process. This study assessed the technical feasibility, safety and preliminary efficacy of local percutaneous implantation of allogeneic bone-forming cells in delayed unions of long bone fractures.

Internal Fixation of an Intertrochanteric Fracture after Resurfacing Arthroplasty: A Case Report.

Introduction: Periprosthetic fracture is the most common cause of reoperation after resurfacing arthroplasty. The majority of fractures associated with this kind of arthroplasty are mostly subcapital fractures. Inter- and sub-trochanteric fractures after resurfacing arthroplasty are rarely reported, and there is no consensus regarding the treatment of such fractures.
