The effect of surgical factors on recurrence of tendon sheath giant cell tumours.

In this retrospective study, we evaluated the impact of tumour-related and surgical factors on the recurrence of giant cell tumours of tendon sheath. A total of 95 patients were treated at our institution between February 2012 and March 2021. We identified the factors most likely to be associated with recurrence from evaluation of classification, neurovascular invasion, bone erosion and joint invasion.

Anatomical Parameters Associated with the Shortening Decision in Crowe Type 4 Dysplastic Hip Osteoarthritis: A Case-Control Study.

Background: Muscle and bone morphometry may be potent indicators for predicting femoral subtrochanteric shortening osteotomy (FSSO). We aimed to investigate muscular and bony factors that may be predictive of FSSO.

Methods: Patients with unilateral Crowe type 4 developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) who underwent unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) without (Group 1, 31 patients) and with FSSO (Group 2, 39 patients) were included.

Is Lenke type V adolescent idiopathic scoliosis associated with different muscular morphometry?

The aim of the study was to evaluate the changes in psoas major (PM), erector spinae (ES), multifidus (MF), and rectus abdominis (RA) morphometry in Lenke type V adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and control. Forty-two Lenke V AIS patients and 30 control were enrolled. The cross-sectional area (CSA) and CSA index (CI) of the PM, ES, MF, and RA at the T9-L5 levels were measured and compared between Lenke type V patients and control.
