Published: September 2016

Percutaneous fixation of acetabular fractures can be challenging because of the complex anatomy of the anterior column. We have used a modified iliac oblique-outlet image view in conjunction with more traditional radiographic views to place antegrade anterior column screws. This technique does not replace the pelvic inlet but is a good alternative in the lateral decubitus position because it helps to mitigate the difficulties of obtaining the pelvic inlet radiograph in this position. The purpose of this study is to describe the radiographic technique, demonstrate proper and aberrant screw placement using Sawbones, and present a review of patients in which this technique was used in clinical practice.

Prone Transpsoas Lumbar Interbody Fusion for Degenerative Disc Disease.

Background: Prone transpsoas lumbar interbody fusion (PTP) is a newer technique to treat various spinal disc pathologies. PTP is a variation of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) that is performed with the patient prone rather than in the lateral decubitus position. This approach offers similar benefits of lateral spinal surgery, which include less blood loss, shorter hospital stay, and quicker recovery compared with traditional open spine surgery.

Communication sound processing in mouse AC is lateralized. Both left and right AC are highly specialised and differ in auditory stimulus representation, functional connectivity and field topography. Previous studies have highlighted intracortical functional circuits that explain hemispheric stimulus preference.

Before patients begin out-of-bed exercises following internal fixation surgery for acetabular fractures, turning over in bed serves as a crucial intervention to mitigate complications associated with prolonged bed rest. However, data on the safety of this maneuver post-surgery are limited, and the biomechanical evidence remains unclear. This study aims to introduce a novel loading protocol designed to preliminarily simulate the action of turning over in bed and to compare the biomechanical properties of two fixation methods for acetabular fractures under this new protocol.

Transoral resection of a symptomatic odontoid process aneurysmal bone cyst: illustrative case.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons

Departments of Neurosurgery, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York.

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are slow-growing, expansile bone tumors most often observed in the long bones and lumbar and thoracic spine. Anterior column ABCs of the spine are rare, and few cases have described their surgical management, particularly for lesions with extension into the odontoid process and the bilateral C2 pedicles. In the present case, the authors describe a two-stage strategy for resection of a symptomatic 2.

Early development of vertebral column and appendicular skeleton in Naozhou Larimichthys crocea (Richardson, 1846).

Key Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology and Aquaculture of Tianjin, College of Fisheries, Tianjin Agricultural University, Tianjin, People's Republic of China.

Understanding the developmental sequence characteristics of the vertebral and appendicular skeletons of the larvae and juveniles of Larimichthys crocea (Naozhou population) can provide theoretical basis for seedling cultivation, environmental adaptation, and taxonomic identification. The cartilage-bone double staining method was used to stain, observe, and analyse the vertebrae, pectoral fins, anal fins, caudal fins, and dorsal fins of the larvae and juveniles of L. crocea (0-30 days post-hatching [DPH]).
