"Growing pains" are a frequent problem in paediatric practice. Over the last years, their diagnostic and therapeutic approaches have changed. Other syndromes than those well-known by paediatricians are to be taken in consideration. Current treatment consists in reassurance of children and their family reactivation of patients (which means to take up a normal physical activity) and treatment of painful crisis as well as complementary therapies.

Effective management of bony and cartilaginous thoracic injury is a vital part of the care of the polytraumatized patient. Commonly because of high-energy accidents including motor vehicle collisions and falls, these patients routinely require multidisciplinary care and surgical intervention. As our understanding of unstable chest wall injuries and pulmonary sequelae of the injury grows, it is imperative that injury patterns and surgical approaches become familiar to the orthopaedic trauma-trained surgeon.

Minimally Invasive Versus Open Spinal Fusion Surgery for Spondylolisthesis Treatment.
J Orthop Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Sangre Grande Hospital, Sangre Grande, Trinidad and Tobago.
Background: In recent years, there has been a growing utilization of minimally invasive (MI) techniques, which provide the potential advantages of minimizing surgical stress, post-operative pain, and hospitalization duration. Nevertheless, the existing body of literature primarily comprises of studies conducted at a single medical site, which are of low quality and lack a comprehensive analysis of treatment techniques exclusively focused on spondylolisthesis. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to compare minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and open surgery (OS) spinal fusion outcomes for the treatment of spondylolisthesis.

Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Medical, University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC.
Objectives: Opioid use disorder (OUD) is a large, growing, and difficult-to-treat problem. It has been associated with poor sleep, which has a relationship of mutual exacerbation with pain. These interrelationships have prompted interest in how pain catastrophizing (pain-related distortions of cognition), interacts with pain and sleep quality and quantity in those with OUD.
