Case: We describe a case of hip impingement in an 18-year-old woman in association with a large cyst at the femoral neck equal to a resection level of approximately 40%. There was great concern of femoral neck fracture. At the time of hip arthroscopy, this was prophylactically treated with cannulated screws in the femoral head and neck, and the cyst was arthroscopically bone grafted using a novel technique with instruments included in standard the arthroscopy trays.
Conclusion: Prophylactic femoral neck fixation with arthroscopic bone grafting of large bone cysts is a viable treatment option with minimal added morbidity.

Background: RANKL and SCLEROSTIN antibodies have provided a strong effective choice for treating osteoporosis in the past years, which suggested novel molecular target identification and therapeutic strategies development are important for the treatment of osteoporosis. The therapeutic effect of verapamil, a drug previously used for cardiovascular diseases, on diabetes was due to the inhibition of TXNIP expression, which has also been reported as a target in mice osteoporosis. Whether verapamil-inhibited TXNIP expression is related to osteoporosis and how it works on the molecular level is worthy to be explored.

Purpose: To describe diagnostic approaches and management strategies for patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and recent fracture in England.
Methods: We developed a survey based on a patient at high fracture risk and a new diagnosis of probable PHPT. The survey was circulated among 50 secondary care professionals identified by the Society for Endocrinology Calcium and Bone special interest group.
The Risk of Postoperative Periprosthetic Femoral Fracture After Total Hip Arthroplasty Depends More on Stem Design Than Cement Use: An Analysis of National Health Data from England.

January 2025
Leeds Institute of Health Sciences, School of Medicine, University of Leeds, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.
Background: In this study, we estimated the risk of surgically treated postoperative periprosthetic femoral fractures (POPFFs) associated with femoral implants frequently used for total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: In this cohort study of patients who underwent primary THA in England between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2020, POPFFs were identified from prospectively collected revision records and national hospital records. POPFF incidence rates, adjusting for potential confounders, were estimated for common stems.
Biomechanical comparison of locking femoral neck plate versus cannulated screws with or without a medial buttress plate in Pauwels type 3 femoral neck fractures.
Acta Orthop Traumatol Turc

Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, Izmir Katip Celebi University, Ataturk Training and Research Hospital, Izmir, Türkiye.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the locking femoral neck plate (LFNP) can be an alternative fixation method to the cannulated screws with a medial buttress plate. For this purpose, we compared biomechanically the LFNP and cannulated screws with or without a medial buttress plate in Pauwels type 3 femoral neck fractures.
Methods: A vertical fracture model was created at an 80-degree angle to the femoral neck in 28 synthetic bone models.
Challenges in Rehabilitation of a Tetanus Patient With Severe Complications.

Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, School of Medicine, Showa University, Tokyo, JPN.
Tetanus is a rare but life-threatening neurological disorder caused by neurotoxins produced by . Although mortality rates have significantly decreased with modern intensive care, severe cases remain challenging due to prolonged Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stays, complications, and rehabilitation barriers. We report the case of an 81-year-old male with a history of hypertension and femoral neck fracture who developed severe tetanus following a contaminated forehead laceration.
