Three groups of muscle fibers (dark, light, and intermediate) were revealed in the fibers of the frog sartorius muscle in examination of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity. There was revealed a reverse relationship between the diameter of the muscle fibers an the SDH activity in them. The external surface of sartorius muscle is chiefly represented by dark muscle fibers, whereas the internal one--by light ones. Microelectrode study demonstrated that the fibers of the external surface were characterized, in comparison with those of the internal one, by lesser action potentials, prolonged trace negative potential, low quant composition of the end plate potentials, high amplitude and low frequency of the end plate miniature potentials. Analysis of the data obtained demonstrated definite interrelationship between the histochemical profile of the muscle fibers of the frog sartorius muscle and their electrophysiological characteristics.

Muscles and their tendons present a considerable diversity of morphological variations. The aim of this study was to explore variants of muscles and tendons from compartments of the thigh and to raise awareness about potential problems during ultrasound examination. This comprehensive review of the literature was created on the basis of scientific articles sourced from PubMed.

This case report discusses an innovative approach to abdominal wall reconstruction in a 19-year-old male patient with PBS and associated conditions, including chronic renal failure and spina bifida. Previously, he underwent distal ureterectomy and vesicoureteral reimplantation at the age of two years to correct urinary tract dilation and bilateral orchiopexy.

Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NTSIs) represent a concept of necrotizing infections involving the skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, and muscle, and it is a potentially fatal disease. Early exploratory incision is strongly recommended for both the diagnosis and treatment of necrotizing soft tissue infections. Treatment of necrotizing soft tissue infections requires the administration of appropriate antimicrobial agents and adequate surgical debridement.

Femoral nerve palsy (FNP) is a rare but serious complication after total hip replacement (THP). Despite its rarity, FNP can significantly impact patient recovery and quality of life. This case report examines the occurrence of FNP in a patient following a primary THP and highlights the importance of surgical technique and postoperative detection and its management.

Background: The muscles that encase the hip serve a crucial role in both joint stability and functional efficacy, and as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) progresses, the surrounding musculature may undergo specific adaptations that reduce joint stability, thereby exacerbating dislocation. Yet, the exact nature of changes in muscle morphology and quality remains inadequately investigated. This study aimed to compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluations of the iliopsoas and other hip flexor and extensor muscles in children with unilateral DDH before and after treatment.
