Introduction: Bilateral forms of quadricipital tendon rupture are rare. They are usually associated with predisposing factors, such as secondary hyperparathyroidism due to chronic renal failure, which need to be treated to avoid recurrence.

Presentation Of Case: A 38-year-old man with a medical history of chronic kidney failure was presented to the hospital for bilateral quadricipital tendon ruptures after a low-energy trauma.

Allograft reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral complex in skeletally immature patients: a technical note.

Acta Ortop Mex

April 2024

Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics, Sanatorio Allende. Cordoba, Argentina.

Patellofemoral instability (PFI) is a common disorder in children and adolescents. Surgical stabilization of the patella poses challenges in skeletally immature patients due to anatomical peculiarities at this stage, leading to the absence of an established standard reconstruction technique. Recently, there has been a notable interest in the medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC), encompassing the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) and the medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament (MQTFL), owing to their role in restricting lateral patellar displacement.

Urban-Rural Disparities in the Lung Cancer Surgical Treatment Pathway: The Paradox of a Rich, Small Region.

Front Surg

April 2022

Thoracic Surgery Department, Ospedale Regionale di Bellinzona e Valli, Via Ospedale, Bellinzona, Switzerland.

Introduction: Rural populations in large countries often receive delayed or less effective diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer. Differences are related to population-based factors such as lower pro capita income or increased risk factors or to differences in access to facilities. Switzerland is a small, rich country with peculiar geographic and urban characteristics.

Background: French bulldogs exhibit significantly larger femoral external rotation and abduction than other breeds. We were curious as to whether this peculiar leg kinematic affects patellar motion and/or might induce medial patellar subluxation (MPSL) or medial patellar permanent luxation (MPPL). We hypothesized that the more abducted leg posture during stance causes an unusual medial pull direction of the rectus femoris muscle during stance, and that this may facilitate the occurrence of MPSL or even MPPL during locomotion.

A Preliminary Study on the Mechanical Reliability and Regeneration Capability of Artificial Bone Grafts in Oncologic Cases, With and Without Osteosynthesis.

J Clin Med

May 2020

Oncologic Orthopaedic Division, Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology, Orthopaedic and Trauma Center, Città della Salute e della Scienza, University of Turin, 10126 Turin, Italy.

Several bone grafts are available for clinical use, each with their own peculiar biological and mechanical properties. A new bone graft was obtained by combining mineral structures from natural bovine bones with bioresorbable polymers and cellular nutrients. The study aims to evaluate the clinical, biological and structural properties of this bone graft and its reliability in orthopedic oncology.
