Primary Bone Lymphoma of the Scapula.

Primary bone lymphoma of the scapula is a rare tumor that usually causes local pain. The presented patient suffered for two years from paresthesia, tingling, numbness, and edema of the little and ring fingers. The 45-year-old man underwent several radiological and neurological assessments of the palm, elbow, and neck before radiographs revealed a tumor of the left shoulder.

HIP ARTHROSCOPY: RESIDUAL CAM DEFORMITY COMBINED WITH LOOSE BONY FRAGMENT IN HIP CAPSULE.

Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive, effective and innovative orthopedic procedure with a relatively low rate of complications. In our patient, residual cam deformity and a bone fragment that remained in the front hip capsule after hip arthroscopy performed three years before caused thigh numbness, muscle fasciculations, and paresthesia. It was assumed that the loose bony fragment remained following burring on prior procedure.

IMPACT OF CEMENTLESS ZWEYMÜLLER STEM ANTEVERSION ON RESISTANCE TO PERIPROSTHETIC FRACTURE IN TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY.

Total hip arthroplasty implies proper orientation of both acetabular and femoral components with a range of 25-40° of combined anteversion. The aim of the study was to examine resistance to periprosthetic fracture of the axially loaded cross section rectangular femoral stem (Zweymüller) with respect to different degrees of anteversion, implanted in the artificial bone model, in laboratory conditions. Femoral bone models with implanted femoral stems were divided into 3 groups depending on the degree of stem anteversion (A, control group 13-17°; B, stem retroverted 0°-4°; and C, stem anteverted 26-30°).

First Metatarsophalangeal Joint Arthroscopy of 36 Consecutive Cases.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY In this study, we retrospectively reviewed a consecutive case series of first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint arthroscopies performed in our department over a span of six years. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of arthroscopic treatment for various first MTP joint pathologies. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 36 patients that underwent first MTP joint arthroscopy between January 2014 and December 2019 were reviewed.

Current knowledge on the genetic background of developmental dysplasia of the hip and the histomorphological status of the cartilage.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) represents a morphological abnormality characterized by the incongruity of femoral head and acetabulum. It ranges from mild dysplastic changes to complete dislocation. DDH has been associated with several hereditary and environmental risk factors, which could explain the incidence variability among different countries.
