Objective: Type IV fragility fractures of pelvis (FFP IV) are serious and complicated and the treatment is challengeable. Robotic-assisted minimally invasive triangular fixation (RoboTFX) is a new and advanced technique to treat this injury. The objective of this report is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of FFP IV treated with RoboTFX.

Objective: Ultrahigh frequencies (UHF) have been shown to selectively suppress the sensory pathway with a rapid onset and prolonged effect compared with low frequencies. Few studies have explored the feasibility of UHF electrical stimulation in treating overactive bladder. This study aimed to investigate whether bladder overactivity could be inhibited by UHF stimulation at the L6 nerve root.

Purpose: To assess the effect of various pelvic fixation techniques and number of rods on biomechanics of the proximal junction of long thoracolumbar posterior instrumented fusions.
Methods: A validated spinopelvic finite-element (FE) model was instrumented with L5-S1 ALIF and one of the following 9 posterior instrumentation configurations: (A) one traditional iliac screw bilaterally ("2 Iliac/2 Rods"); (B) T10 to S1 ("Sacral Only"); (C) unilateral traditional iliac screw ("1 Iliac/2 Rods"); (D) one traditional iliac screw bilaterally with one midline accessory rod ("2 Iliac/3 rods"); (E) S2AI screws connected directly to the midline rods ("2 S2AI/2 Rods"); and two traditional iliac screws bilaterally with two lateral accessory rods connected to the main rods at varying locations (F1: T10-11, F2: T11-12, F3: T12-L1, F4: L1-2) ("4 Iliac/4 Rods"). Range of motions (ROM) at T10-S1 and T9-T10 were recorded and compared between models.

Introduction and importance: Large retroperitoneal schwannomas are rare and present significant challenges in surgical management, particularly when located in the pelvic region. Gynecologists can encounter rare problems when a pelvic schwannoma is mistaken for an adnexal pathology. Case Presentation: A 62-year-old woman presented with a giant retroperitoneal mass suspected of a potentially malignant ovarian tumor preoperatively.
