Introduction And Importance: Posttraumatic boutonnière deformities are complex clinical problems that are often poorly understood. Nevertheless, there are no established therapy guidelines, and there is little data to support the various treatment outcomes. In this report, we want to report on the treatment using an ala carte approach of already established procedures.

- Gout is an inflammatory arthritis caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals, mainly affecting joints like the big toe and ankle, and treatment focuses on reducing uric acid levels and managing pain.
- A 32-year-old male with hyperuricemia had a painful swollen ankle; MRI showed a ligament issue, leading to an arthroscopic surgery that diagnosed gout and removed crystal deposits, resulting in significant improvement.
- Gout can mimic other joint injuries, making diagnosis tricky; successful arthroscopic treatment requires expert planning and careful removal of crystals to avoid complications.
Article Synopsis
- Several types of laminoplasty spacers, including a 3D scaffold made of polylactic acid (PLA) with alginate/hydroxyapatite and mesenchymal stem cells, were tested for their ability to fill bone gaps in rabbits.
- The study found no inflammation or necrosis in most rabbit models, indicating good biocompatibility and tissue integration of the synthetic scaffold compared to traditional autografts.
- The results suggest that further studies in humans are warranted to explore the potential of these synthetic scaffolds for treating bone defects.
