Background: The quadrant method is widely used to determine the femoral footprint center (FFC) on radiographs or computed tomography (CT) and can also describe the tibial footprint center (TFC). However, its application on three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been limited. This study aims to describe the ACL footprint center position on 3D MRI of healthy knees using the quadrant method.

Background: Patient-specific instruments (PSIs) were reported to improve implant position and rotation accuracy in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), among other benefits. Most PSIs used in TKA were commercial products from implant manufacturers, which could be time-consuming and could potentially affect accuracy as they relied on engineer's decision. This study aimed to present the radiological outcomes of PSI produced by the 3D printing facility at our hospital, with direct involvement of the surgeon in its design.

Nocardiosis in aquatic animals caused by Nocardia seriolae is a frequently occurring serious infection that has recently spread to many countries. In this study, DNA vaccines containing potential bacterial antigens predicted using the reverse vaccinology approach were developed and evaluated in orange-spotted groupers. In silico analysis indicated that proteins including cholesterol oxidase, ld-transpeptidase, and glycosyl hydroxylase have high immunogenicity and are potential vaccine candidates.

Introduction: Snapping shoulder syndrome could be effectively treated with scapulothoracic arthroscopy. The excision of the scapular superomedial corner is assumed to help lower the recurrence rate. However, the amount of resection is still controversial.

Introduction: Treatment of elbow bone defects is still a huge challenge in orthopaedic in order to restore the shape and function of the elbow joint. Bone defect reconstruction is very difficult due to biomechanical complexity of the elbow joint and the poor coverage tissue of this area, so mega-prothesis can be considered the most optimal solution in these cases.

Case Report: We present two clinical cases of megaprosthesis elbow replacement for treatment of bone defects caused by sequelae of trauma.

Vaccination is the most effective, safe, and environmentally friendly method to prevent the outbreak of Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida (Phdp), a dangerous pathogen in aquaculture worldwide. Here, recombinant proteins of catalase, superoxide dismutase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (Fba), and a mixture of all four proteins were investigated for their immunoprotective effects against photobacteriosis in Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer).

The diseased cage-cultured cobia (Rachycentron canadum) displayed clinical signs, haemorrhagic eyes, dorsal darkness and gross pathological lesions, enlargement of spleen and liver. Haemorrhages were found in brain, heart and liver with cumulative mortality rates ranging from 20% to 50%. Extensive congestion in the heart, liver, spleen, kidney and brain was observed histopathologically.

Background: The purpose of this research is to evaluate the results of arthroscopic suture fixation with fiber wires used as treatment for ACL avulsion fracture, and to determine how effective such a technique is when it comes to restoring of knee function.

Materials And Methods: This prospective study involves 28 patients, who underwent arthroscopic fixation of displaced ACL avulsion fractures at Saint Paul Hospital (Hanoi) from January 2014 to March 2018.

Results: The first three weeks were not marked with any abnormalities associated with post-operative sutures and hematomas, infectious complications were not detected either.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study involved 28 patients from Saint Paul Hospital in Hanoi and showed no postoperative complications, with consistent fracture stability observed.
  • * At the 3-month follow-up, patients had high average IKDC and Lysholm scores, with 92.9% achieving excellent or good outcomes, indicating that this technique is effective for treating ACL avulsion fractures.

A total of 480 cage-cultured fish were collected from 4 coastal provinces in central Vietnam to investigate the causative agent of nocardiosis. Fish displayed unique characteristics such as paleness and lethargy and exhibited haemorrhages and ulcers on the skin. Prominent white nodules varying in size were observed in the spleen, kidney, and liver.
