- This method was tested in a retrospective cohort study involving patients who had not found relief from multiple prior treatments for cLBP lasting over six months, utilizing MRI for diagnosis.

Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Health Sciences University Turkey, Metin Sabancı Baltalimanı Bone Diseases Training and Research Center, İstanbul, Turkey.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates anatomical differences in the vascular structures related to Crowe type 4 hips, aiming to understand how the femoral artery and vein relate to the acetabulum compared to normal hips.
- Forty patients with one dysplastic hip and one normal hip underwent CT scans, marking specific regions of the acetabulum and measuring the proximity of femoral vessels to these areas.
- Results show that both femoral vessels are significantly closer to the acetabulum on the dysplastic side, highlighting the need for careful intraoperative consideration to prevent vascular injuries during surgery.
Permanent and temporary epiphysiodesis: an experimental study in a rabbit model.
Acta Orthop Traumatol Turc
August 2013
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Vital Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey.
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the Phemister technique (permanent epiphysiodesis) with temporary epiphysiodesis with stapling and evaluate the degree of epiphyseal plate activity following staple removal using radiographic, scintigraphic and histopathologic methods and to investigate whether bone scintigraphy could provide clues on expected physis activity.
Methods: This study included 24 New Zealand rabbits divided into three groups of 8. Group 1 underwent Phemister's epiphysiodesis; Group 2, epiphysiodesis with stapling; and Group 3, epiphysiodesis stapling group with staples removed in the 3rd week.
