It is commonly accepted that wide en bloc resection followed by reconstruction is essential in progressive lesions (Campanacci grade III) for local control of possible recurrence. However, specific grade III can be downgraded and treated with intralesional curettage to preserve better wrist function, without increasing the recurrency rates. In this report, Grade III giant cell tumor of the distal radius was successfully treated using vascularized osseous graft from the inner lip of the iliac bone in addition to downgrading strategy.

Introduction: Computed tomography (CT) angiography is commonly utilized to quickly identify vascular injuries caused by blunt cervical trauma. It is often conducted alongside a cervical spine CT, based on established criteria. This study assessed the prevalence of cervical vascular injuries identified via CT angiography (CTA) in patients who had negative findings on cervical CT scans.

Background: Preoperative chemoradiotherapy combined with total mesorectal excision (TME) is a standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, lateral pelvic lymph nodes (LPLNs) are often inadequately treated with standard regimens. This study examines the treatment and postoperative outcomes in LARC patients receiving a simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) for LPLNs during long-course chemoradiotherapy.

Objective: The objective of this review was to synthesize the available evidence on the experiences of African women who migrated to a developed country and encountered intimate partner violence (IPV).
Introduction: IPV is a significant public health issue, and migrant women living in developed countries are particularly vulnerable to IPV, experiencing disproportionately higher rates of IPV. Understanding the experiences of these women can inform health policy and decision-making in clinical practice to minimize IPV.

Background: Cervical cancer is considered one of the most common gynecological malignancies with an increased incidence in developing countries. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a valuable role in staging cervical cancer and providing valuable information necessary for selecting the appropriate treatment plan, while closely correlating with the prognosis of the patient.
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the diagnostic value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the preoperative loco-regional staging of cervical carcinoma.

Background: Radiotherapy plus temozolomide followed by adjuvant temozolomide was the standard treatment for high-grade gliomas. This study aimed to explore the effectiveness and safety of the addition of apatinib in patients with high-grade gliomas after surgery.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, patients with high-grade glioma [World Health Organization (WHO) grade III or IV] treated with apatinib and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) after surgery from October 2017 to February 2021 were reviewed.
