Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Internal Bracing of Medial Structures in Knee Dislocation. Case Study.

This paper presents an alternative method of surgical treatment in patients with late-diagnosed knee dislocation. The treatment involves anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with an autogenic graft and the use of synthetic Fibertape bracing to ensure normal medial structure healing. The paper includes case presentation, indications for use, a description of the surgical technique and conclusions.

Subclavian-axillary arterial thrombosis and distal embolisation after traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation.

Arterial vascular injury associated with anterior dislocation of the shoulder is a rare but potentially devastating complication, often seen in the context of high-energy trauma or penetrating injury. It is a medical emergency that can compromise both the viability and functionality of the limb, as well as the patient's life if it is not identified early and treated properly. However, its diagnosis can be difficult, since it requires a high index of suspicion.

Ultrasound (US) measurement of the distance between the Achilles tendon and the posterior tibial neurovascular bundle in equinus infantile deformity.

Objective: To study the distance between the Achilles tendon and the posterior tibial neurovascular bundle via ultrasound (US) - Doppler, with the goal of preventing neurovascular bundle injuries.

Methods: We studied 36 feet with equinus deformity (18 cases on the right and left side) in children with a mean age of 20.9 months.

[Incarcerated epitrochlear fracture with a cubital nerve injury].

Injuries of the medial epicondyle are relatively common, mostly affecting children between 7 and 15 years. The anatomical characteristics of this apophysis can make diagnosis difficult in minimally displaced fractures. In a small percentage of cases, the fractured fragment may occupy the retroepitrochlear groove.

[Acute calcific prevertebral tendinitis: case report and literature review].

Prevertebral calcific tendinitis is an uncommon cause of acute neck pain characterized by the identification of calcifications at C1-C2 level and the presence of a liquid collection at the prevertebral space which causes the displacement of the prevertebral radiographic line in imaging studies. It is very important to identify this rare, benign and self-limiting pathology, in order not to confuse it with other diseases that could erroneously lead to inappropriate treatment.
