Background: Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a painful condition that can impair a patient's quality of life. If nonoperative measures fail, progressively more invasive treatment options may be required. This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma (LR-PRP) injections in the treatment of refractory GTPS caused by bursitis and/or gluteal tendinopathy.

A 54-year-old male underwent a low anterior resection in 2015 for rectal adenocarcinoma. He presented to the emergency department with a two-week history of fever, perianal pain, an erythematous, warm, and actively draining mass. Physical examination revealed a perianal abscess in the left posterior gluteal region, with a palpable internal fistulous orifice 3 cm from the anal margin.

The greater sciatic, lesser sciatic and obturator foramina are openings in the pelvis through which pelvic lesions can herniate, leading to the formation of rare dumbbell tumours. We present the case of a man in his late 60s, who presented with obstructed defecation. A per rectal examination revealed a palpable right sided rectal mass.

Introduction: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign, locally destructive, blood-filled reactive lesions of the bone most commonly presenting as pain or mass effect. Most are frequently located in the proximal humerus, distal femur, proximal tibia, spine, uncommonly the sacrum, and rarely the sacroiliac (SI) joint. We present a rare case of ABC in the SI joint and its recurrence treated with percutaneous intralesional doxycycline ablation and the corresponding outcome.

Article Synopsis
  • This study compares hip muscle area and density in older women with different types of hip fractures: femoral neck fractures (FNF) and trochanteric fractures (TRF).
  • A total of 554 older women participated, with age and muscle measurements taken via CT scans to evaluate muscle parameters and bone density.
  • Results indicated that women with FNF had better muscle parameters than those with TRF, especially in those under 80 years, highlighting a link between decreased gluteus muscle density and area with TRF in younger older adults.
