Published: October 2024

Case: A 10-year-old girl with a history of distal femur osteosarcoma underwent resection and limb reconstruction with a cemented custom expandable endoprosthesis. Immediately following stemmed implant insertion, the patient experienced severe cardiopulmonary collapse. Following emergent fluid and oxygen resuscitation by anesthesia, her transient cardiopulmonary instability resolved.

Conclusion: This is the first report describing acute bone cement implantation syndrome in a pediatric patient. This case highlights the importance of vigilance and interdisciplinary communication with anesthesia when inserting cemented implants in pediatric patients.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of antibiotic-loaded cement articulating spacers produced through a silicone mold in the two-stage revision of infected total knee arthroplasty. Five individuals were prospectively treated with 2-stage revision using spacers made by this mold. Clinical assessment was conducted during and after implantation using the WOMAC Score, Oxford knee score, and range of motion (ROM).

Management of periacetabular osteolysis is a challenging dilemma in revision total hip arthroplasty. When the acetabular shell is well-fixed, the surgeon may prefer to retain the cup to minimize further bone loss. However, filling the surrounding defect can be difficult if the area of involvement is massive.

Calcium hydroxide nanoparticles (Ca(OH)NPs) possess potent antimicrobial activities and unique physical and chemical properties, making them valuable across various fields. However, limited information exists regarding their effects on genomic DNA integrity and their potential to induce apoptosis in normal and cancerous human cell lines. This study thus aimed to evaluate the impact of Ca(OH)NPs on cell viability, genomic DNA integrity, and oxidative stress induction in human normal skin fibroblasts (HSF) and cancerous hepatic (HepG2) cells.
