Role of MRI to Assess the Progress of Spinal Tuberculosis During the Course of Treatment

Saurabh dwivedi

    Spine is the commonest site of skeletal involvement in tuberculosis and constitutes more than 50% of all forms of osteo-articular tuberculosis. MRI is the most valuable non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic tool in the patients with spinal tuberculosis to promote early detection of disease and assess the response of treatment and change in regime of A.T.T. accordingly.

Lipoma Arborescens of knee

Vijayamohan; Joe Thomas; Shyam Gopal V*

    Synovium is an uncommon site for primary tumors and most of them are benign. Lipoma Arborescens (LA) is one of them. It is a relatively unusual, benign, intra-articular lesion, which more often appears in the knee [1]. Other sites such as the shoulder, the elbow, the wrist, the hip, and the ankle may also be affected Bilateral involvement of the knees has also been described [2].
We report a case of a 57 year old male who presented with pain and swelling of knee, who was diagnosed with lipoma arborescens and underwent synovectomy and got releaved of symptoms...


Surgical Management of a Pure Lateral Subtalar Dislocation

Mohamed Sidibe*; Mohamed Lamine Bah; Fode Mahamoud Sylla; Amadou Tanou Bah; Alhassane Soumah; Serge Ntungnawayo

    Subtalar dislocations are rare lesions and represent less than 1% of all dislocations. The lateral variety is rare and accounts for only 17% of all subtalar dislocations. This observation concerned a 60-year-old man with hearing loss who, following a work accident, presented with a purely lateral open subtalar dislocation. He underwent surgical treatment by trimming, reduction and double talocalcaneal and talonavicular pinning...


Relationship between Spinal Disorders and Physical Attributes

Yash Kulshrestha*; Pawan Mishra

    Spinal disorders are a typical phenomenon in the human masses. The specific cause of these issues is unknown, and there are few studies on the causes of spinal abnormalities induced by a person¡¦s physical characteristics. The goal of this study is to discover a link between various spine parameters and the physical attributes of people. This study looked at total 10 spine parameters and several physical attributes of fifty-five individuals obtained with Statico 3D, and footprints were obtained through pedobarography...


Prospects of Skeletal Muscle Culture for In-Vitro Cultured Meat Production

Smriti Shukla; Rony S; Emmanuel; Vikash Chandra*

    With the rising food demands and a proportionately growing population, the food business has developed various inventions, alterations, and ways to produce meat in vitro. This innovation has the potential to change the meat industry, with significant effects on the environment, human health, and animal welfare. As a result, animal cells, rather than actual meat from slaughtered animals, are employed to create cell-based meat, with cell division and proliferation taking place in the culture medium.


Long-Term Results of Treatment with Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Growth Factors and Neural Regulation in Post-Traumatic Osteoarthritis of the Ankle

Carlos Chiriboga-Accini*; Ernesto Guerra-Farfan; Georges F Vles; Mario Murgueitio-Eguez; Verdy Rodriguez-Zambrano; Ivan Cherrez-Ojeda; Harry Adelson; Peter Chedraui; Antonio WD Gavilanes; Pieter J Emans

    Post-Traumatic Osteoarthritis (PTOA) continues to impose a big challenge on orthopedic surgery worldwide. Biological interventions, such as injections with growth factors and stem cells, combined with improving Extracellular Matrix (ECM), intend to regenerate damaged tissues or minimize further degeneration. The ECM provides structural support and is a fundamental component of stem cell niches.

    Traditional treatment of fractures is common practice in underdeveloped countries. The objective was to report our service¡¦s experience in managing complications related to the traditional treatment of limb fractures.


Treatment of Schatzker Type III Tibial Plateau Fractures: Report of an Alternative, Percutaneous Technique and Brief Review of the Literature

Avraam Christodoulidis*; Piero Giardini; Carlo Raimondo Menna; Micaela Pagliari; Marco Molinari

    Schatzker III Tibial Plateau Fractures (TPF) reduction and stabilization is still a challenging procedure. We present an alternative, percutaneous surgical technique. With an antero-medial transverse incision at the level of the tibial metaphysis, under fluoroscopic control, an osteotome is advanced from medial to lateral, under the depressed fragments, reducing the articular surface of the lateral TP anatomically, without create a significant void and preserving the lateral wall.


Pulseless Upper Extremity Following Closed Reduction of a Dislocated Shoulder: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Ean C Schwartz*; Joseph S Geller; Jacob E Milner; David Constantinescu; Paul R Allegra; Justin E Trapana; James C Shaw

    Anterior shoulder dislocation is one of the most common orthopaedic injuries treated in the emergency department. While associated vascular injuries are rare, they can be a potentially devastating complication, usually seen after highenergy or penetrating trauma. Therefore, a complete neurovascular exam is critical on initial presentation.

Shemila Abbasi*; Gauhar Afshan; Fiza Khan; Ali Sarfraz Siddiqui; Kamran Ali; Ausaf Ahmed; Tanveer Baig

    The role of caudal epidurography and epidural steroid injections in FBSS in low-middle-income countries remains unknown. Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) is a chronic pain condition with a significant impact on quality of life. It affects about 5 to 40% of patients who undergo spinal surgery. This retrospective study evaluates the effect of epidural steroid injection using caudal epidurography on pain (static and dynamic) and on functional improvement, mood, and sleep.
