Article Synopsis
- Minimally Invasive Osteosynthesis (MIO) is a technique for orthopedic surgery that aims to provide less invasive treatment for fractures but currently lacks standardized guidelines.
- A study analyzing 57 fractures in 53 patients treated with MIO between March 2017 and January 2022 focused on surgical techniques and outcomes, revealing low complication rates and effective healing.
- The research concluded by establishing general principles for MIO, which can improve surgical efficiency and patient recovery across various types of fractures and locations.

Gout is inflammatory arthritis caused by monosodium urate crystal deposition in articular and non-articular structures. Acute gout flares are often monoarticular/polyarticular involving lower extremity joints characteristically involving 1st metatarsophalangeal joint. However, gout flares can also be polyarticular, involving upper extremity joints, especially in patients with multiple comorbidities and contraindications to urate-lowering therapies (ULT).

February 2023
Department of Orthopaedic and Traumatology, British Hospital of Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Background: Infected segmental bone defects (I-SBD) are challenging and complex to manage. This study aimed to show the outcomes achieved in I-SBD of the femur and tibia, treated with the induced membrane technique performing a definitive bone stabilization in the first stage.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 30 patients with infected non-articular segmental bone defects of the femur (n = 11) and tibia (n = 19), operated consecutively between January 2015 and May 2021.
A rare case of Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau successfully treated with topical calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment associated with Jaccaud's arthropathy: A case report.
SAGE Open Med Case Rep
November 2022
Department of Internal Medicine, Rizal Medical Center, Pasig, Philippines.
Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH) is a rare and localized form of pustular psoriasis that can lead to irreversible anonychia whereas Jaccoud's arthropathy (JA) is a rare non-articular condition characterized by a deforming non-erosive arthropathy involving the digits. This case describes the first reported association of these two rare conditions in a 73-year-old Filipino male who was treated topically until remission of ACH. Because calcipotriol/betamethasone ointment works better and faster than clobetasol ointment, it may be considered as a preferred first-line treatment for ACH.
