Introduction: A misdiagnose and inadequate treatment of neonatal septic arthritis of the hip has multiple sequelae and causes a severe disability. The aim of this study is evaluation of treatment of residual deformity after type IVA neonatal septic arthritis of the hip by Pelvic support osteotomy.
Case Presentation: A 11-year-old, white girl, was treated surgically by pelvic support osteotomy. The patient underwent two surgical interventions. The first operation consists in lengthening of the left femur for 6 cm with monolateral lengthening external fixation device. The second operation consists in pelvic support osteotomy of the left femur and lengthening for 4 cm. The limb was well aligned after healing, with the axis aligned under the medial wall of the acetabulum.
Conclusion: Pelvic support osteotomy can successfully correct a Trendelenburg-Duchenne gait and simultaneously restore knee alignment and correct lower-extremity length discrepancy.

We present a case of 37-year-old man with multiple masses in the abdominal and pelvic cavity who underwent 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT. The masses demonstrated heterogeneously increased uptake on 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT and were suggestive of neuroendocrine tumor. However, the histopathological examinations confirmed the masses to be peritoneal mesothelioma.

Introduction and importance: Extrapelvic endometriosis, confined exclusively to the body of the rectus abdominis muscle, is a rare form of abdominal wall endometriosis. While its etiopathology remains unclear, it is often diagnosed in healthy women who present with atypical symptoms and localization unrelated to any incision site, or in the absence of a history of endometriosis or previous surgery. Presentation of the case: Here, we describe a unique case of intramuscular endometriosis of the rectus abdominis muscle in a healthy 39-year-old Caucasian woman.

Normal tissue reactions vary significantly among patients receiving the same radiation treatment regimen, reflecting the multifactorial etiology of late radiation toxicity. Predicting late radiation toxicity is crucial, as it aids in the initial decision-making process regarding the treatment modalities. For patients undergoing radiotherapy, anticipating late toxicity allows for planning adjustments to optimize individualized care.

Background And Objective: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI), defined as any involuntary leakage of urine associated with physical activity, remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. This review aims to provide an updated overview of the prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment of SUI in women, drawing upon recent evidence-based literature and clinical guidelines.
Methods: A systematic search of the MEDLINE database was conducted to identify only the most up-to-date and relevant studies published up to February 26, 2024, including the reference ESTER systematic review.
