Purpose: Posterior elongation of the physiological terminal sulcus (TS) due to lateral femoral condyle impaction fracture (LFC-IF) after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear could potentially decrease the weight-bearing area of the tibiofemoral joint, decrease the tension on lateral meniscus and cause flattening of the LFC which would influence rotational knee motion and cause anisometry of the lateral and anterolateral stabilizers. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to assess if the LFC-IF elongates the physiological TS posteriorly.
Methods: One hundred patients magnetic resonance images (MRIs) (75 males, 25 females, mean age 32.

Diprosopus is a congenital anomaly in which partial or complete duplication of craniofacial structures occurs. Because it is rare, the mortality rate is high, and information concerning this anomaly is scarce. This study describes a case of human diprosopus in a 9-year-old male individual, who has severe complications associated with the central nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems.

The purpose of the study was to systematically review the literature concerning the diagnosis, prevalence, clinical importance, and management of LFC-IF occurring during ACL injuries.
Methods: Included were studies concerning impaction fractures of the anterocentral part of the LFC occurring during ACL injuries.

Background: The aim of this network meta-analysis was to assess the comparative effects of different dexamethasone (DXM) routes and doses on reducing postoperative sequelae (pain, swelling, trismus) after surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars.
Methods: Five databases were searched on September 22, 2021, for randomized controlled trials. Risk of bias (ROB) was assessed using the Cochrane ROB 2 tool.
