We report the findings of a 60-year-old female patient with metastatic breast cancer who presented with severe edema and neuralgia in the contralateral arm after receiving the third COVID-19 vaccine dose. The patient did not report any reaction to the first two doses of the BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) vaccine. However, after a booster dose with the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccine, the patient developed a high fever persisting for one week after the shot, and sequential severe swelling, inflammation, and pain in the contralateral arm lasting for three weeks.

Ulnoradial - metacarpal reconstruction for emergency one-stage procedure in complicated wrist amputation.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
The Wuxi No.9 People's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University, No. 999 Liangxi Road, Wuxi, 214000, China.
Background: Complicated wrist amputation caused by severe trauma poses a real challenge for orthopedic and hand surgeons. This study aimed to evaluate a procedure of ulnoradial-metacarpal reconstruction as a rescue option in this challenging situation.
Methods: In total, 12 patients with complicated wrist amputation induced by serious injury were selected from 2015 to 2020 and followed up for 1∼6 years at a level 1 trauma center.
Improving postsurgical paresis in brain tumor patients by transcranial magnetic stimulation.
J Neurooncol
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, School of Medicine, Technical University of Munich, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Munich, Germany.
Background And Objectives: Recently, reduction of transcallosal inhibition by contralateral navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (nrTMS) improved neurorehabilitation of glioma patients with new postoperative paresis. This multicentric study examines the effect of postoperative nrTMS in brain tumor patients to treat surgery-related upper extremity paresis.
Methods: This is a secondary analysis of two randomized and three one-arm studies in brain tumor patients with new/progressive postoperative paresis.
How Often Does Bacteremia Occur in Patients With Chronic Periprosthetic Joint Infection? A Prospective, Observational Study.
Clin Orthop Relat Res
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, Urumqi, PR China.
Background: Bacteremia is sometimes observed in patients with prosthetic joint infection (PJI), and it is associated with a lower likelihood of infection control. However, the prevalence and association of bacteremia in chronic PJI remain unknown.
Questions/purposes: (1) What percentage of patients are diagnosed with bacteremia at the time of hospital admission and before surgery for chronic PJI? (2) What clinical factors are associated with positive blood cultures? (3) To what degree are positive blood cultures associated with infection-free implant survival in patients with chronic PJI?
Methods: This prospective study was conducted at a single academic institution from June 2021 to August 2022.
Aberrant anatomical variation of the vertebral artery (VA) from an internal carotid artery (ICA) is considered a rare finding. The incidence of this phenomenon can lead to patients suffering from posterior circulation neurological deficit if the ICA becomes significantly diseased. VA atypical anatomical origin is considered one of the rare pathologies, not only precipitating neurovascular incidents but equally leading to severe difficulty in VA dissection and surgical exposure, especially in carotid artery procedures.

Queensland Unit for Advanced Shoulder Research (QUASR), Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia.
Background: Frozen shoulder (FS) is a debilitating inflammatory condition affecting the shoulder capsule that causes significant pain and stiffness. Its etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment remain poorly understood. Although regarded as self-limiting, FS can have profound implications on the activities of daily living and usually takes 1-4 years to resolve on its own accord.
