Acute Extensor Pollicis Longus Tendon Injury Associated with a Distal Radius Fracture: A Case Report.
Am J Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedics, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
BACKGROUND Extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon rupture is a potential complication following distal radius fracture, typically occurring several weeks after injury. Herein, we present a rare case of acute extensor pollicis longus tendon rupture associated with a distal radius fracture. CASE REPORT A 35-year-old woman visited our hospital with a distal radius fracture.

Introduction: External fixators are utilized to temporarily stabilize bicondylar tibial plateau fractures. They can be prepped during definitive surgery to help maintain fracture length and alignment. However, there is a potential for increased infection by leaving the external fixator on during the surgery.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a slow, short-stepping, shuffling gait pattern caused by a combination of motor control limitations due to a reduction in dopaminergic neurons. Gait disorders are indicators of global health, cognitive status, and risk of falls and increase with disease progression. Therefore, the use of quantitative information on the gait mechanisms of PD patients is a promising approach, particularly for monitoring gait disorders and potentially informing therapeutic interventions, though it is not yet a well-established tool for early diagnosis or direct assessment of disease progression.

Department of Neurology, Korea University Guro Hospital, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: Visual dysfunction, including abnormal stereopsis, is a significant non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD) that can reduce quality of life and appears early in the disease. Abnormal stereopsis is associated with worsening of bradykinesia and freezing of gait, though the exact pathways linking stereopsis to motor symptoms remain unclear. Furthermore, in PD patients, the pedunculopontine nucleus and laterodorsal tegmental complex play an active role in sensorimotor control, and these areas provide cholinergic projections.

J Orthop Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Murup Hospital, Changwon, South Korea.
Introduction: Medial open wedge-high tibial osteotomy (MOW-HTO) is a standard procedure for treating moderate varus arthritis in active adults. The reason for its popularity is having lesser complications than other types of HTO. However, it is not devoid of challenges.
