Purpose: To compare the clinical efficacy of two surgical interventions in treating advanced stages TB of the pubis and pubic symphysis.
Methods: Between June 2010 and January 2020, 33 cases of the advanced pubis and pubic symphysis TB were treated with a one-stage debridement procedure (debridement only group, n = 15) or a one-stage debridement with bone grafting and plate fixation procedure (debridement + plating group, n = 18). The visual analog scale (VAS) score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), operation time, intraoperative blood loss, complications, time of bone graft fusion, and improvement in the mental component summary (MCS) and physical component summary (PCS) of Short Form-36 (SF-36) were compared and analyzed.
Results: All patients were followed for 24.9 (SD 1.6) months. All patients were completely cured of the pubis and pubic symphysis TB with no recurrence. There were no significant differences (P >0.05) between the two groups in terms of age, follow-up period and intraoperative blood loss. The post-operative VAS scores, ESR and CRP levels, PCS and MCS scores of two groups significantly improved compared to pre-therapy. The mean operation time in debridement + plating group was 140.9 (43.2) min, which was significantly longer than in debridement only group [94.9(21.8) min, P < 0.01]. The final follow-up (FFU) indices of the VAS score in debridement only group were higher than those in debridement + plating group [1.9 (0.8) vs 1.3 (0.5), P=0.012]. A satisfactory average bony fusion time of 12.2 (3.3) months was achieved in debridement + plating group .
Conclusions: A one-stage debridement, bone grafting, and reconstruction plate fixation procedure achieved reconstruction of the integrity and stability of the pelvic ring, pain relief, and rapid cure of bone TB. This procedure is a safe and effective treatment option for advanced pubis and pubic symphysis TB.

Purpose: To determine the clinical effects of urethral suspension-assisted urethral anastomosis on complex long-segment posterior urethral stricture and describe the technical aspects of this procedure.
Materials And Methods: The clinical data for 24 patients who underwent urethral suspension-assisted urethral anastomosis for complex long-segment posterior urethral stricture between March 2021 and March 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The surgical procedure comprises the following four steps: creation of an inverted Y-shaped incision in the perineum; mobilization of the urethra up to the penile-scrotal junction followed by dissection and separation of the septum of the corpus cavernosum; separation of the inferior pubic symphysis, excising a portion of the inferior pubic symphysis bone tissue and thoroughly clearing the scar tissue surrounding the proximal urethra; and suturing and suspension of the proximal urethra and surrounding tissues at the 2, 5, 7, and 10 o'clock positions, ensuring complete exposure of the proximal urethral mucosa and tension-free anastomosis between the proximal and distal urethra.

Introduction: Surgical treatment of pelvic girdle pain (PGP) involves arthrodesis of sacroiliac (SI) and pubic symphysis joints. Fusion of pubic symphysis involves the implantation of an autologous iliac crest tricortical graft harvested from the iliac crest. The objective was to assess the safety of a novel synthetic graft substitute (b.

Introduction: Osteochondroma is a bony lesion arising from the surface of the bone. It com-prises a large percentage of all benign bone tumors. A unique feature of this tumor is the conti-nuity of cortical and medullary components between the normal bony tissue and aberrant tissue of osteochondroma.

To date, pagetoid spread-the proliferation of pagetoid cells in intraepidermal lesions, as observed in secondary extramammary Paget's disease-has not been reported in squamous epithelium derived from the extension of head and neck carcinomas. Herein, we report a case of pagetoid squamous cell proliferation associated with a primary intraosseous carcinoma (PIOC) arising in the periapical lesion of the maxilla, a finding not reported previously. A 60-year-old man presented with prostate adenocarcinoma and bilateral pubic bone, ilium bone, and sacral bone metastases.
