We present a case of a type Ia endoleak from an aortic endograft in close proximity to the renal arteries that was successfully treated with a back-table physician-modified endograft with inversion of the contralateral limb. This modification allowed for deployment of a fenestrated cuff and bifurcated distal main body over the flow divider of the previous endograft, thus avoiding the need for either an open aneurysm repair, physician-made fenestrations, or aorto-uni-iliac repair with femoral-femoral bypass. This case demonstrates that back-table physician-modified endograft contralateral limb inversion is an easy, reproducible, and effective technique.

Background: With the approval of disease-modifying treatments for 5q-spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), there is an increasing need for biomarkers for disease course and therapeutic response monitoring. Radially sampled Averaged Magnetization Inversion Recovery Acquisitions (rAMIRA) MR-imaging enables spinal cord (SC) gray matter (GM) delineation and quantification in vivo. This study aims to assess SC GM atrophy in patients with 5q-SMA and its associations with clinical disability.

: The ankle joint is among the most vulnerable areas for injuries during daily activities and sports. This study focuses on individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI), comparing the biomechanical characteristics of the lower limb during side-step cutting under various conditions. The aim is to analyze the impact of kinesiology tape (KT) length on the biomechanical properties of the lower limb during side-step cutting, thereby providing theoretical support and practical guidance for protective measures against lower-limb sports injuries.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disease affecting joint mechanics. Considering the effect of step-width changes on the biomechanics of gait, especially the alteration of stability dynamics during narrow-base gait, this study investigated the kinematic parameters of the lower extremities during both normal and narrow-base walking in individuals with and without KOA.
Methods: A cross-sectional study with 20 individuals with bilateral KOA and 20 controls was conducted.

Introduction: Lateral ankle ligament reconstruction (LALR) is fundamental to avoid instability and the risk of osteoarthritis. After surgery, deficits in muscular strength and the proprioceptive system lead to functional changes. This study aimed to investigate if proprioceptive and isokinetic training can be incorporated to manage a professional soccer player after LALR.
