Background: Medically refractory hypertonia (MRH) within the pediatric population causes severe disability and is difficult to treat. Neurosurgery for mixed MRH includes intrathecal baclofen (ITB) and lumbosacral ventral-dorsal rhizotomy (VDR). Surgical efficacy limitations can be mitigated by combining the two into a multimodal strategy.

: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after shoulder arthroplasty is often treated with a two-stage approach, but the data on the mid- to long-term outcomes remain scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of two-stage revision arthroplasty for shoulder PJI with a minimum follow-up of five years. : This retrospective study identified 59 shoulders in 58 patients who underwent the first stage of a two-stage revision arthroplasty for shoulder PJI at our institution between 2007 and 2018.

This most frequently occurs within the pelvis and is a common cause of chronic pelvic pain in women of reproductive age. Rarely, endometriosis can manifest outside of the pelvis and can uncommonly involve the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous systems.

Background: Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) dysfunction accounts for the etiology of pain in 15%-30% of low back pain cases. Some patients with conservative treatment-refractory SIJ dysfunction undergo radiofrequency (RF) ablation of the SIJ for prolonged pain relief. This procedure involves placing up to 12 RF probes in what is an invasive, resource-intensive, and time-consuming process.

Backgrounds: Previous studies have found that percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) can effectively improve the local pain of the affected vertebra caused by thoracolumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) regardless of unilateral or bilateral puncture, but there are few reports on whether it is equally effective for the accompanying distant lumbosacral pain.
Objective: To analyze the clinical effect of unilateral or bilateral PVP on thoracolumbar OVCF with distant lumbosacral pain.
Methods: The clinical data of patients with single-stage OVCF treated with PVP in our hospital from March 2019 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.
