Surface-based bone hemangiomas are uncommon, mostly occurring in long bones of the lower extremities. Radiographic surface-based bone hemangioma images may present various features that provide a diagnostic challenge. We report a case of surface-based hemangioma of the radius that posed radiological diagnostic difficulties. The tumor size was small and the cortical reaction was subtle. MRI findings were nonspecific and angiography was useful in the assessment of painful but less obvious surface-based bone hemangioma. The patient's pain improved following surgery and no tumor recurrence was observed at 3 years after surgery.

This study presents a multi-domain computational framework to investigate the long-term performance of permanent and bioabsorbable magnesium fixation devices in orthopaedic fracture applications. The framework integrates a coupled model for bone fracture healing and remodeling, with an enhanced surface-based corrosion model to predict the performance of bioabsorbable magnesium devices. It was found that plated fracture fixation enabled fracture healing outcomes compare to non-plated models by facilitating direct fracture healing.

Biomimetic approaches to implant construction are a rising frontier in implantology. Triple Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS)-based additively manufactured gyroid structures offer a mean curvature of zero, rendering this structure an ideal porous architecture. Previous studies have demonstrated the ability of these structures to effectively mimic the mechanical cues required for optimal implant construction.

A better understanding of how age-related bone loss affects the fracture-prone regions of the proximal femur could lead to more informed fracture-prevention strategies. Therefore, the aim of this work was to assess the spatio-temporal distribution of bone deterioration in older men and women with aging. A subset of 305 men (74.

Gradual elevation of the periosteum from the original bone surface, based on the principle of distraction osteogenesis, induces endogenous hard and soft tissue formation. This study aimed to assess the impact of alternating protocols of activation with relaxation (periosteal pumping) on bone modeling and remodeling. One hundred and sixty-two adult male Wistar rats were used in this study.

Symmetry recovery in zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures compared to normal unfractured population: A new reliable 3D evaluation.

J Stomatol Oral Maxillofac Surg

June 2024

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, Belgium; OMFS IMPATH Research Group, Department of Imaging & Pathology, University Hospitals Leuven, Belgium.

Objective: This study aims to quantify the facial symmetry of surgically treated zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures through a new reliable three-dimensional evaluation method, which is crucial for improving post-operative aesthetic and functional outcomes.

Material And Methods: Healthy patients and patients with surgically treated ZMC fractures were retrospectively reviewed. Using Brainlab Elements® the zygomatic bone and the orbit of each patient was segmented and mirrored.
