Diagnostic Imaging for a Pectoralis Major Muscle Tear in a 30-Year-Old Weightlifter: A Case Report.
J Chiropr Med
September 2024
Norman W. Kettner, DC Imaging Center, Logan University, Chesterfield, Missouri.
Objective: The purpose of this report is to describe the presentation of a patient with a pectoralis major tendon (PMJ) tear.
Clinical Features: A 30-year-old male weightlifter presented to a chiropractor with localized left arm pain that began while bench-pressing. Ecchymosis and swelling were present, but no contour abnormalities were seen.
Clinical Implementation of Cone Beam Computed Tomography-Guided Online Adaptive Radiation Therapy in Whole Breast Irradiation.
Adv Radiat Oncol
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, Amsterdam UMC location Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Purpose: In postoperative breast irradiation, changes in the breast contour and arm positioning can result in patient positioning errors and offline replanning. This can lead to increased treatment burden and strain on departmental logistics because of the need for additional cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images or even a new radiation therapy treatment plan (TP). Online daily adaptive radiation therapy (oART) could provide a solution to these challenges.

J Stomatol Oral Maxillofac Surg
November 2024
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Klinikum Dortmund and Witten/Herdecke University, Dortmund/ Witten, Germany.
Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of free dermal fat graft (FDFG) reconstruction after parotidectomy by analyzing clinical complications and patient satisfaction.
- - Researchers conducted a systematic review of 20 studies involving 922 reconstructions and found low rates of complications like hematoma and infection, with most donor site issues being under 1%.
- - Results show that FDFG is a safe and effective method for correcting facial contour deformities, with high patient satisfaction and low incidence of complications such as Frey's syndrome.
Percutaneous Screw Fixation of Proximal Fifth Metatarsal Fractures.
JBJS Essent Surg Tech
November 2024
Department of Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Surgery, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio.
Article Synopsis
- Metatarsal fractures, particularly affecting the fifth metatarsal, are common injuries, making up 5-6% of outpatient fractures, with zone 2 fractures—specifically Jones fractures—being difficult to manage due to poor blood supply and higher nonunion rates.
- Surgical treatment, particularly open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), is preferred for Jones fractures, as it leads to better healing rates compared to conservative treatment methods.
- The surgical technique involves careful anatomical marking and using a guidewire for screw placement to compress the fracture, followed by a recovery period that includes non-weight-bearing and gradual weight-bearing activities.*
Efficacy of Liposuction of the Posterior Arm Fat Pad in Axillobrachioplasty after Massive Weigh Loss: A Pilot Study.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
October 2024
Department of Plastic Surgery, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark.
Background: The topographic anatomical changes of the upper arms and axilla after massive weight loss (MWL) seem ill-described in the literature. The importance of the axilla in MWL brachioplasty and how the procedure differs from the postmenopausal "batwing" deformity of the upper arms is also unclear. Consideration of the underlying pathology seems imperative for a successful reconstruction.
