Pedicle ossification following mandibular reconstruction using fibular free flap in a patient with osteoradionecrosis of the jaw: a case report.
J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg
December 2024
Oral Oncology Clinic, Research Institute and Hospital, National Cancer Center, Goyang, Korea.
Article Synopsis
- Pedicle ossification is a rare complication that can occur after using a fibular free flap (FFF) for mandibular reconstruction, potentially simulating tumor recurrence and leading to diagnostic challenges.
- A case study of a 38-year-old male with squamous cell carcinoma highlighted how postoperative complications led to the need for FFF reconstruction, and over 4 years, CT scans showed ossification in the flap's vascular pedicle, yet the patient remained asymptomatic.
- Regular imaging and clinical assessments are key to distinguishing ossification from tumor recurrence, with surgery usually only considered if symptoms arise.
Mapping two decades of research in rheumatology-specific journals: a topic modeling analysis with BERTopic.

December 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Medical Engineering, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, 2-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka, 565-0871, Japan.
Objectives: As many patients with osteoporosis remain undiagnosed, we aimed to develop a simple method to efficiently screen for osteoporosis using a combination of anteroposterior hip X-ray assessment and the Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool for Asians (OSTA), which is calculated as (body weight - age) × 0.2.
Methods: One hundred Japanese women (age: 73 ± 11 years, body weight: 54.

Forensic Sci Res
September 2024
Institute of Forensic Medical Expertise, Expert Institute, Bratislava, Slovak Republic.
Article Synopsis
- - The report discusses a case involving the interdisciplinary analysis of mummified remains of a subadult female, highlighting the need for collaboration among forensic experts in pathology, anthropology, and entomology to draw accurate conclusions related to child abuse and neglect.
- - Analysis of the remains revealed evidence of advanced decomposition, various fractures, signs of growth arrest indicating neglect, and dried subdural blood, leading to the conclusion that the child suffered from repeated violence and trauma throughout her life.
- - Findings from entomological studies were used to determine the time since death, emphasizing the role of different forensic fields in establishing a legally relevant understanding of this case.
