Soft tissue aneurysmal bone cyst presenting as an enlarging neck mass: Case report and review of the head and neck literature.

Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Soft tissue aneurysmal bone cysts (STABCs) are rare neoplasms histopathologically identical to aneurysmal bone cysts. These benign lesions are characterized by thin, peripheral ossification and no skeletal continuity. STABC may be difficult to distinguish from myositis ossificans (MO) and malignant entities from imaging and fine needle aspiration, due to rarity and overlapping features.

Background: It was reported the paraspinal muscle played an important role in spinal stability. The preoperative paraspinal muscle was related to S1 screw loosening. But the relationship between preoperative and postoperative change of psoas major muscle (PS) and S1 pedicle screw loosening in degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) patients has not been reported.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the muscle structure of paraspinal muscles in patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS), isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS), and healthy individuals.
- Researchers measured factors like cross-sectional area and fatty infiltration in these muscles, with a focus on differences based on occupation (workers vs. farmers).
- Results showed that both DS and IS patients had atrophy in the multifidus muscle compared to healthy individuals, but IS patients also exhibited hypertrophy in the erector spinae muscle, highlighting the need for tailored surgical approaches based on muscle morphology variations in spondylolisthesis types.
Beneficial effects of Chinese martial arts on the lumbar spine: A case series analysis of intervertebral disc, paraspinal muscles and vertebral body.

December 2023
Department of Radiology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, 430030, China.
Purpose: Chinese Martial arts is becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. There is insufficient evidence to prove the health effects of martial arts due to methodological weaknesses. The aim of this study was to better understand the effects of Chinese martial arts on the skeletal and muscular status of the lumbar spine by quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Department of Orthopedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University, Dalian, P.R. China.
Background: Spinal disorders affect millions of people worldwide, and can cause significant disability and pain. The paraspinal muscles, located on either side of the spinal column, play a crucial role in the movement, support, and stabilization of the spine. Many spinal disorders can affect paraspinal muscles, as evidenced by changes in their morphology, including hypertrophy, atrophy, and degeneration.
