The purpose of the study is to describe and analyse long-term results of the modified Grice procedure with specially prepared pre-shaped autograft from iliac crest. 54 patients (101 feet) who underwent modified Grice procedure, were retrospectively analysed. Before and after the surgery, talocalcaneal (TC) angle and calcaneal inclination (CI) angle were measured and compared with post-operative values. Furthermore, AOFAS score was assess pre-and postoperatively as well as the subjective evaluation of the patients or their parents. Detailed analysis was performed separately for patients with different forms of CP. Postoperatively, TC angle and subjective assessment decreased, and CI angle and AOFAS score increased significantly compared to pre-operative values. The significant difference was observed among different CP groups in all observed parameters. Severe complications were not observed. The modified Grice procedure with specially prepared pre-shaped autograft showed promising long-term results.

Article Synopsis
  • Climate change might make it easier for mosquitoes that spread dengue and yellow fever to thrive in more places.
  • Researchers studied how different areas could change for these mosquitoes because of climate changes happening now and in the future.
  • They found that certain regions in Africa and Asia might see more mosquitoes, and it’s important to pay attention to these areas to keep track of these mosquito populations.

Subtalar distraction arthrodesis (SDA) is a surgical procedure designed to treat hindfoot deformities associated with isolated subtalar joint arthritis. In 1996, Fitzgibbons was the first to observe that, in some cases, hindfoot fusion appeared to be associated with the development of tibiotalar valgus tilt. Since then, few studies have addressed this issue.

Purpose: To characterize estimated mean absorbed tumor dose (AD), objective response (OR), and estimated target dose of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after resin microsphere yttrium-90 (Y) radioembolization using partition dosimetry.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective, single-center study, multicompartment dosimetry of index tumors receiving Y radioembolization between October 2015 and June 2022 was performed using a commercial software package and pretreatment technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT). In total, 101 patients with HCC underwent 102 treatments of 127 index tumors.
