Background: Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) therapy has become a new coming focus of clinical research in regenerative medicine. However, only a small number of implanted MSCs could successfully reach the injured areas. The previous studies have shown that fracture healing time is inversely proportional to concentration of MSCs in injured tissue.

Methods: The migration and osteogenesis of MSCs were assessed by transwell assay and Alizarin Red S staining. Levels of gene and protein expression were checked by qPCR and Western Blot. On the other hand, the enhanced migration ability of MSCs induced by Cyasterone was retarded by CXCR4 siRNA. In addition, the rat model of femoral fracture was established to evaluate the effect of Cyasterone on fracture healing. What's more, we also checked the effect of Cyasterone on mobilisation of MSCs in vivo.

Results: The results showed that Cyasteron increased the number of MSCs in peripheral blood. The concentrations of SDF-1α in serum at different time points were determined by ELISA assay. Micro-CT and histological analysis were used to evaluate the fractured femurs.Our results showed that Cyasterone could promote the migration and osteogenesis capacities of MSCs. The fractured femurs healed faster with treatment of Cyasterone. Meanwhile, Cyasterone could significantly increase the level of SDF-1α in rats with femur fracture.

Conclusion: Cyasterone could promote migration and osteogenesis of MSCs, and most importantly, it could accelerate bone fracture healing.Translational Potential statement: These findings provide evidence that Cyasterone could be used as a therapeutic reagent for MSCs mobilisation and osteogenesis. What's more, it could acclerate fracture healing.

Ankle fractures are among the most common bone injuries, which are often accompanied by soft tissue injuries. Proper management of these fractures is crucial to promote healing and minimize complications. This study explores the effects of 2 treatment methods for ankle fractures: open reduction and internal fixation and manual reduction followed by plaster external fixation.

Background: Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis is a rare but devastating hereditary disease. Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis is caused by a mutation in the neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 1 gene (NRTK1). The condition is characterized by multiple injuries, recurrent infections, and mental retardation.

Case: We present a 79-year-old woman with a complex elbow fracture including a comminuted proximal ulna fracture, coronoid process fracture, and comminuted radial head fracture treated with primary total elbow arthroplasty (TEA). The patient completed an early therapy protocol and had complete healing. At 15 months postoperatively, she had full pronosupination and elbow arc of motion from 10 to 135° with no reported pain.

This article aims to describe a multicenter cohort of atypical triplane ankle fractures with intramalleolar involvement of the epiphysis, providing insights into the affected population, treatment outcomes, and complications. In addition, we propose a treatment strategy for such fractures based on our findings. A retrospective analysis was conducted on adolescent patients diagnosed with triplane ankle fractures.

Purpose Of The Study: Open (incisional) biopsies have long been accepted as the gold standard in diagnosing bone and soft tissue tumors. However, the main disadvantage of this method is that it can lead to increased contamination, hematoma, infection, and pathological fracture. Compared to open biopsies, percutaneous core needle biopsies are less invasive, do not require hospitalization, have low costs and low complication rates, and there is no need for wound healing in cases that require radiotherapy.
