The advantages of prophylaxis with intraosseous regional administration (IORA) of vancomycin for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in primary and revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) include the ability to deliver antibiotics directly to the surgical bed and avert systemic delivery; the ability to precisely time and quickly administer vancomycin to achieve the highest concentrations at the beginning and throughout the surgical procedure; and the ability to avert several common and potentially serious adverse effects of intravenous vancomycin. Indications for IORA of vancomycin prophylaxis include the following clinical scenarios: revision TKA; obesity; diabetes; beta-lactam allergy; known colonization with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA); individuals coming from institutions with a high MRSA incidence; previous ligamentous surgical procedure or osteotomy; current or recent smokers; in the primary TKA setting if the individual is considered high-risk as defined by the criteria above; and during reimplantation following 2-stage exchange for PJI.

This descriptive study focuses on the oral health of African migrants, especially adolescents, arriving in the Canary Islands. Notably, these patients show a high prevalence of caries and oral mucosal alterations. These are influenced by multifactorial factors, such as living conditions in their country of origin, hygiene habits, and sugar-rich diets.

A boy in his middle childhood presented with a gradually enlarging, mildly tender swelling in the left frontal region, noticed after minor trauma. Skull radiograph and non-enhanced CT revealed a diffuse sclerotic lesion involving the left frontal bone and overlying subcutaneous soft tissue, suggestive of an intraosseous haemangioma. Contrast-enhanced MRI showed an expansile, hypointense lesion in the frontal bone on the left side with enhancing extraosseous components and a small extra-axial cyst.

Background: This study aims to demonstrate the 3-dimensional pattern of the nutrient vessels of the triquetrum using micro-computed tomography and determine the safe region for screw applications to the bone.
Methods: Seven fresh frozen cadavers' ulnar and radial arteries were injected with Microfil MV-117. Triquetral bones were dissected and examined using micro-computed tomography.
Intraosseous and intravenous vascular access during adult cardiac arrest: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark; Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus, Denmark.
Objective: To summarise evidence on the clinical effectiveness of initial vascular attempts via the intraosseous route compared to the intravenous route in adult cardiac arrest.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE and Embase (OVID platform), the Cochrane library, and the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform from inception to September 4th 2024 for randomised clinical trials comparing the intraosseous route with the intravenous route in adult cardiac arrest. Our primary outcome was 30-day survival.
Oral Rehabilitation of a Child Superimposed with Tooth Impaction and Ranula.
Int J Clin Pediatr Dent
September 2024
Department of Pediatric Dentistry, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; Department of Pediatric Dentistry and Dental Public Health, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt.
Introduction: Dental impaction may be due to several etiological factors, including genetic conditions, lack of space, failure of primary tooth resorption and prolonged retention of these teeth, presence of intraosseous cysts, and trauma in the region. The ranula is a mucus-filled cyst-like mass that usually originates from extravasation of mucus from the sublingual gland.
Case Description: A 7-year-old Saudi female presented to the pediatric dental clinic at Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz Hospital (PMBAH), Al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, Saudi Arabia, with complicated orodental problems that were identified after clinical and radiological assessment, including the following: an intruded primary central incisor in close relation to the nasal cavity, hypodontia, hypomineralization, multiple carious teeth, abscess, and sublingual ranula.
