Case: A 21-year-old woman presented with a chronic fracture dislocation of her left shoulder after striking a submerged tree during a watersport activity. She was initially treated at an outside hospital, where she underwent open reduction and internal fixation of her posterior scapula. She presented 8 weeks after index procedure with pain and severely decreased range of motion. Her comminuted and displaced fracture comprising 70% of the anterior superior glenoid was surgically reconstructed using a distal tibia allograft (DTA), resulting in a functional shoulder.
Conclusion: A DTA is a feasible option to reconstruct the glenoid surface in fracture dislocations of the shoulder with a significant loss of the articular surface.

This study aimed to summarize the clinical characteristics of acute epiphyseal osteomyelitis and acute metaphyseal osteomyelitis of long bones in children. Data of 43 children with acute osteomyelitis of long bones diagnosed and treated from November 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Medical records, laboratory results, and MRI were reviewed.

Case: A 49-year-old gentleman sustained a closed, right tibia peri-implant fracture with a bent intramedullary nail. This resulted in a 17° valgus and 5° recurvatum deformity with fracture at the distal third of the tibial shaft. The patient underwent closed manipulation with an F-Tool and was reviewed by our unit over the following year.

Background: Implant fixation is often the cornerstone of musculoskeletal surgical procedures performed to provide bony fixation and/or fusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate how different design features and manufacturing methods influence implant osseointegration and mechanical properties associated with fixation in a standardized model in cancellous bone of adult sheep.
Methods: We evaluated the performance of three titanium alloy implants: (A) iFuse-TORQ implant; (B) Fenestrated Sacroiliac Device; and (C) Standard Cancellous Bone Screw in the cancellous bone of the distal femur and proximal tibia in 8 sheep.
Cursorial ecomorphology and temporal patterns in theropod dinosaur evolution during the mid-Cretaceous.

Coelurosauria, including modern birds, represents a successful group of theropod dinosaurs that established a high taxonomic diversity and significant morphological modifications. In the evolutionary history of this group, a specialized foot morphology, the arctometatarsus, evolved independently in several lineages and has been considered an adaptation for cursoriality. While its functional significance has been extensively studied, the temporal pattern of this parallel evolution, as well as its origin and influencing factors, remains largely unresolved.
