Biomechanical evaluation of an experimental internal ring fixator (RingFix) for stabilization of pelvic ring injuries on an osteoporotic bone model.

During the last decades, effective pain reduction and early mobilization were identified as the central priorities in therapy of insufficiency fractures of the pelvis. For operative treatment minimally-invasive stabilization techniques are favored. While there is consensus on the significance of sufficient dorsal stabilization the role of additional fixation of the anterior fracture component stays under discussion.

Mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) is a rare disease characterized by a reversible lesion in the splenium of the corpus callosum (SCC) observed on MRI. The exact etiology of MERS is unknown, although infections and antiepileptic drugs have been reported as potential causes. Herein, we present the case of a 56-year-old male patient who experienced fever and headache for 3 days.

Background: Perineural Tarlov cysts are extrathecal cerebrospinal fluid-filled cavities in the perineural recesses around dorsal spinal nerve roots. They are mostly asymptomatic but may occasionally cause back pain, radiculopathy, neurological deficits, and idiopathic intracranial hypotension.
Case Description: A 40-year-old female presented with a partial left foot drop attributed to a symptomatic L5 Tarlov cyst with an extension anterior to the sacrum.
Laparoscopic transabdominal approach for resection of presacral epidermoid cyst in an obese man: a case report.

Article Synopsis
- Complete resection of presacral epidermoid cysts is crucial to prevent complications like infection or cancer, but there is no standard surgical method for this procedure.
- A case involving a 44-year-old obese male patient with a large cystic tumor showed successful treatment using a laparoscopic transabdominal resection, offering advantages in visibility and reduced scarring compared to traditional methods.
- The findings suggest that the laparoscopic transabdominal approach is a viable and effective option for removing presacral tumors, especially in obese individuals.
Feasibility of percutaneous dural sac puncture via a posterior trans-sacral foraminal conduit approach: a CT morphometric analysis.

We assess the theoretical feasibility of percutaneous posterior sacral foramen (pSF) needle puncture of the sacral dural sac (DS) by studying the three-dimensional imaging anatomy of pSFs relative to the sacral canal (SC). On CT images of 40 healthy subjects, we retrospectively studied sacral alae passageways from SC to pSFs in all three planes to determine if an imaginary spinal needle could theoretically traverse S1 or S2 pSFs in a straight path toward DS. If not straight, we measured multiplane angulations and morphometrics of this route.
