Published: September 2009

The purpose of this study was to determine if the use of both a larger femoral head size and a posterior capsular repair would lead to a decreased incidence of dislocation following revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). Two hundred forty-two consecutive revision THAs with posterolateral approach were performed between 2000 and 2005. Group 1 had 132 revision THAs with posterolateral approach and 28-mm head size without posterior capsule repair. Group 2 had 100 revision THAs with a 32-mm head size and repair of the remaining hip capsule. There were no statistically significant differences in the two groups. Group 1 had 14 dislocations (10.6%). Group 2 had 3 dislocations (2.7%) (P < .05). Based on the results of this retrospective review, the authors recommend the use of both larger femoral head sizes and repair of any posterior capsular tissue available in patients undergoing revision hip arthroplasty.

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to conduct a radioanatomical study of the osteo-myo-cutaneous scapulo-dorsal pedicled flap.

Methods: A radiological study was performed to study the anatomical variations of the dorsal scapular pedicle (origin, course of the deep branch of the dorsal scapular artery (DSA) in relation to the medial border of the scapula, perforators from the superficial branch of the DSA). Perforators from the superficial branch of the DSA were also identified on anatomical subjects, and their cutaneous vascular territory was determined.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) poses significant challenges in both childhood and adulthood, affecting up to 10 per 1000 live births in the United Kingdom and United States. While newborn screening aims to detect DDH early, missed diagnoses can lead to severe complications such as hip dysplasia and early onset osteoarthritis in adults. Treatment options range from less invasive procedures like hip-preserving surgery to more extensive interventions such as total hip arthroplasty (THA), depending on the severity of the condition.

Background: The purpose of this study was to analyze SUMO activating enzyme subunit 1 (SAE1) expression in breast cancer (BC). Through bioinformatics analysis and in vitro experiments, the biological function and possibly associated signal pathways of SAE1 in BC were further analyzed.

Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was applied to analyze SAE1 expression in BC and normal breast tissues, its relationship with clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis in BC patients, and data from the Cancer Genome Atlas database and Gene Expression Omnibus dataset.
