Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an increasingly common neurodevelopmental disorder associated with impairments in postural control and repetitive patterns of behavior. Here, we describe two cases of adventitial bursitis of the dorsolateral feet in patients with ASD presenting as mass-like lesions. Both patients habitually sat in the W-position and were treated with ultrasound-guided aspirations with immediate relief of symptoms.

Lateral Malleolar Bursitis in a Competitive In-Line Rollerblade Speed Skater: A Case Report.

A 10-yr-old nationally competitive female in-line rollerblade speed skater presented to a sports medicine clinic with bilateral lateral ankle pain and swelling over 2 mos. Patient had tenderness to palpation and focal swelling at the lateral malleoli. Ultrasound examination confirmed a diagnosis of lateral adventitial malleolar bursitis, potentially owing to repetitive shear forces across the lateral malleoli.

Article Synopsis
- Sciatica can arise not only from low back issues but also from conditions in the hip and pelvic areas, especially during pregnancy or labor.
- A 37-year-old woman experienced sciatica after labor, and despite initial treatment from a chiropractor, her symptoms worsened, leading to further imaging that revealed an osteochondroma.
- The case emphasizes the importance of assessing hip and pelvis conditions when traditional lumbar imaging doesn’t explain sciatica symptoms, showcasing the chiropractor's role in facilitating diagnosis and referrals in an integrated health system.

Article Synopsis
- * Common issues include conditions like enthesophytosis and bursitis, but subcalcaneal bursitis, which affects the heel fat pad, is less common yet can occur in up to 10% of RA patients and can be diagnosed using ultrasound.
- * Treatment for heel fat pad abnormalities typically involves rest, pain relief, and mechanical aids, with disease-modifying drugs sometimes added, but surgical intervention is rarely necessary.
