Introduction: Proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT) is the result of chronic overload caused by repetitive eccentric contraction. Surgical treatment becomes an option for patients with chronic symptoms that do not respond to conservative treatment.
Case Report: This report describes a case of a 48-year-old man, an amateur triathlete, with deep gluteal pain in the left hip for 12 months, leading to a decline in sports performance. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed abnormalities that suggested a PHT. Surgery was indicated following the failure of conservative treatments. Debridement of the conjoint tendon and its reinsertion associated with semimembranosus tenotomy showed good results and is thus an option for the treatment of this pathology after 12 months of follow-up.
Conclusion: This article provides surgeons with a new surgical option for this debilitating condition with clinical and functional improvement after 12 months of follow-up.

California State University Monterey Bay, Seaside, California, USA.
Rationale: Obesity is an increasing medical issue not responding well to behavioural treatments beyond their initial weeks/months.
Aims And Objectives: Before suggesting surgical or pharmacological interventions, medical professionals might consider referrals to cost-effective, community-based behavioural treatments if stronger theoretical/empirical bases were demonstrated. Thus, evaluation of such is warranted.

Surgical treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the Tibia in children: CPAM-LRC consensus and guidelines.
Int J Surg
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Purpose: Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is a rare condition typically manifesting within the first decade of life. The primary objectives of surgical intervention for CPT include achieving long-term bony union of the tibia, preventing or minimizing limb length discrepancies (LLD), avoiding mechanical axis deviations of the tibia and adjacent joints, and preventing refracture. This study aims to conduct a systematic review of current treatment methods for CPT to determine the most effective non-surgical and surgical management strategies for pediatric patients with this condition.
