A rare intramuscular osteolipoma: A case report.

Introduction: Lipomas are frequently presented in adults and account for almost 50% of all soft-tissue tumors. Osteolipomas are rare and usually located in the intraosseous region or adjacent to bone. It is very unusual for osteolipomas with no connection to bony structures.

Crossbar Technique for the Failed Clavicular Hook Plate Fixation in an Acute Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation: Salvage for Acromial Fracture after Clavicular Hook Plate.

We experienced acromial erosion and subsequent fracture after the treatment of Rockwood type V acromioclavicular dislocation with hook plate and coracoclavicular ligament augmentation. It was treated by using a surgical technique to address an acromial fracture and subsequent losses of reduction in acromioclavicular joint with two trans-acromial cortical screws (crossbar technique). The reduction state of acromioclavicular joint could be maintained by these two screws.

Region- and neuronal phenotype-specific expression of NELL2 in the adult rat brain.

NELL2, a neural tissue-enriched protein, is produced in the embryo, and postembryonically in the mammalian brain, with a broad distribution. Although its synthesis is required for neuronal differentiation in chicks, not much is known about its function in the adult mammalian brain. We investigated the distribution of NELL2 in various regions of the adult rat brain to study its potential functions in brain physiology.
