Case: A 14-year-old adolescent girl sustained a Lisfranc fracture-dislocation with an interposed extensor hallucis brevis (EHB) tendon. Following multiple failed attempts at closed reduction in both the emergency department and the operating room, the patient was treated in a staged manner with temporizing closed reduction and percutaneous pinning in improved alignment, followed by definitive open reduction and internal fixation once soft tissues allowed.
Conclusions: Anatomic reduction and stable fixation of Lisfranc injuries is vital to regain stability and reduce the risk of midfoot arthritis and collapse.

Introduction: The efficacy, safety, optimal timing, and urate-lowering effects of surgical interventions in gout management remain poorly understood. This study aims to fill this gap by evaluating the role of surgery in treating gout patients with tophi.
Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 28 gout patients presenting with tophi.

SOX9 is a crucial transcriptional regulator of cartilage development and homeostasis. Dysregulation of is associated with a wide spectrum of skeletal disorders, including campomelic dysplasia, acampomelic campomelic dysplasia, and scoliosis. Yet how variants contribute to the spectrum of axial skeletal disorders is not well understood.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder that leads to severe cartilage deterioration and synovial impairment in the joints. Previous studies have indicated that the aberrant activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in synovial macrophages plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of RA and has been regarded as a therapeutic target for the disease. In this study, we synthesized a novel canthin-6-one alkaloid, namely methyl canthin-6-one-2-carboxylate (Cant), and assessed its effects on NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages.
