We present a case of a patient who sustained a distal radius fracture and underwent volar plate fixation. Despite initial non-operative management, subsequent corrective osteotomy was required due to malunion. Eighteen months later, the patient presented with an inability to extend the thumb, leading to a diagnosis of extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon rupture.

Aims: Image-based, patient-specific rupture risk analysis of AAAs is promising but it is limited by invasive and costly imaging modalities. Ultrasound (US) offers a safe, more affordable alternative, allowing multiple assessments during follow-up and enabling longitudinal studies on AAA rupture risk.
Methods And Results: This study used time-resolved three-dimensional US to assess AAA rupture risk parameters over time, based on vessel and intraluminal thrombus (ILT) geometry.

Infectious intracranial aneurysms (IIAs) are rare lesions with fragile arterial walls located within the aneurysms, carrying a high risk of rupture. Standard management often involves antibiotic therapy and parent artery occlusion; however, the latter carries a significant risk of cerebral infarction. This report presents a case of an unruptured IIA following cerebral infarction, successfully treated with coil embolization while preserving the parent artery.

Background: Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are pathological dilations occurring at major branch points of cerebral arteries, which can lead to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) upon rupture. Recent studies have identified developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL1) as closely associated with IA, though its role remains not fully understood. This study aimed to investigate serum DEL1 level differences in IA patients and explore its function in vascular endothelial cells.

Introduction: Revision quadriceps tendon repair is a challenging problem. In this four-case series, novel quadriceps tendon revision resulted in improved range of motion and durable repair for patients with recurrent rupture.
Methods: Our technique includes a combination of a running locked #5 FiberWire or 2 mm SutureTape suture placed through parallel medial, lateral, and central drill holes in the patella with running Krackow-type quadriceps tendon repair medially and laterally resulting in four strands, delivering the vastus medialis and medial quadriceps tendon to an anatomic repair at the superior pole of the patella, with 2 sutures passed centrally and 1 each passed medially and laterally and then tied.
