AI Article Synopsis
- The study involved 54 patients diagnosed with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, focusing on specific changes associated with this condition.
- Researchers identified vegetative-trophic disturbances linked to the autonomic nerves at specific segments of the spinal cord (LIII and LIV).
- The characteristics of the nerve supply to the femoral head were analyzed in both humans and experimental animals to better understand this pathology.
Article Abstract
Examination of 54 patients with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head showed that the most characteristic alterations related to this pathology include vegetative-trophic disturbances in zones of autonomic innervation of neurometamers LIII = LIV. Characteristics of the innervation of the femoral head were studied in man and experimental animals.

Avascular necrosis in pediatric rheumatic diseases: an Italian retrospective multicentre study.
Ital J Pediatr

Pediatric Immuno-Rheumatology Unit, Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, Italy.
Background: Atraumatic avascular necrosis (AVN) is a severe condition that may complicate the course of rheumatic diseases and contribute to long-term damage. However, there is a lack of evidence on this rare event in pediatric rheumatology. The aim of our study was to evaluate the occurrence of avascular necrosis in the context of rheumatologic diseases in Italy and to describe the main demographic and clinical features of AVN patients, with a particular focus on treatment background.

Background/purpose: Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), a complication arising from the use of bisphosphonates (BPs), inflicts long-term suffering on patients. Currently, there is still a lack of effective treatments. This study aimed to explore the preventive effects of propranolol (PRO) on BRONJ in vitro and in vivo, given PRO's potential in bone health enhancement.

Background: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare but potentially severe condition that significantly affects the quality of life of patients with cancer. This study evaluated MRONJ in patients with cancer treated with zoledronic acid (ZOA) and denosumab (Dmab).
Methods: The survey investigated patients who were diagnosed with MRONJ at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery after receiving either ZOA or Dmab at the Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, between April 1, 2022, and March 31, 2023.
Determination of adequate bony resection margins in inflammatory jaw pathologies using SPECT-CT in primary mandibular reconstruction with virtually planned vascularized bone flaps.

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospital RWTH Aachen, Pauwelsstraße 30, D-52074, Aachen, Germany.
Objectives: In advanced stages of osteoradionecrosis, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, and osteomyelitis, a resection of sections of the mandible may be unavoidable. The determination of adequate bony resection margins is a fundamental problem because bony resection margins cannot be secured intraoperatively. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT-CT) is more accurate than conventional imaging techniques in detecting inflammatory jaw pathologies.

January 2025
Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust, Foot & Ankle Unit, Stanmore, United Kingdom.
Background: Ankle and hindfoot fusion in the presence of large bony defects represents a challenging problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes of patients who underwent ankle-hindfoot fusions with impaction bone grafting (IBG) with morselized femoral head allograft to fill large bony void defects.
Methods: This was a 3-center, retrospective review of a consecutive series of 49 patients undergoing ankle or hindfoot fusions with femoral head IBG for filling large bony defects.
