Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft-tissue sarcoma in children and adolescents accounts for 3% of all pediatric tumors. Subtypes include alveolar, spindle cell, embryonal, mixed-type, pleomorphic, rhabdomyosarcoma with ganglionic differentiation. The National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) database was queried patients diagnosed any type between 1973 2014. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, incidence were studied χ2 analysis. Survival modeled...
ABSTRACT Chondrosarcomas are rare tumors and, historically, investigation of these has been limited to small series and single‐institution studies. There have no studies that evaluated the identification or comparison differences in prognostic factors between five known non‐conventional chondrosarcoma subtypes (myxoid, juxtacortical, clear‐cell, mesenchymal, dedifferentiated). The purpose this paper was determine demographic, clinical, incidence, tumor characteristics all subtypes, 1‐,...
Background: Synovial sarcoma (SyS) is a rare malignancy that typically located on the limbs and occurs predominantly in adolescents. A study large population for SyS comparing subtypes has not yet been reported. Methods: National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results database was queried patients diagnosed with between January 1975 December 2016. Patients were classified demographically according to gender, age, race/ethnicity, marital status, they also by tumors,...
Navigation-assisted resection has been proposed as a useful adjunct to of malignant tumors in difficult anatomic sites such the pelvis and sacrum where it is achieve tumor-free margins. Most these studies are case reports or small series, but have extremely promising. Very few reports, however, documented benefits navigation-assisted series pelvic sacral primary tumors. Because this technology may add time expense surgical procedure, important determine whether navigation provides any simply...
Objectives Video game use is becoming increasingly popular and projected to continue rise for the foreseeable future. Gamers are at risk unique upper extremity injuries related overuse or trauma when playing interactive gaming systems. The purpose of this study was characterize gaming-related in patients presenting emergency departments across United States over past twenty years. Methods Data from National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) queried all using computer equipment...
Background and objectives: Epithelioid sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive malignancy scarcely reported on due to its rarity. This study a review of traits features prognosis survival by analyzing both the literature national cancer database.Methods: Data were acquired from Survival, Epidemiology, End Results database literature. 1, 5, 10-year Disease Specific Survival rates hazard ratios (HR) determined. split into pre-2000 (<2000) post-2000 (>2000) groups. Overall survival, recurrence,...
Adamantinomas are rare low-grade malignant bone tumors. This study aims to describe the demographic characteristics and survival rates of patients suffering from adamantinomas.The National Institute Cancer Surveillance, Epidemiology, Recent Results (SEER) database was used, diagnosed with adamantinoma between 1973 2016 were screened. Patients classified according sex, age, race/ethnicity, marital status, also tumors year diagnosis, laterality, type treatment, follow-up.The mean age 30.8 ±...
Most closed clavicle fractures are treated nonoperatively. Research during the past decade has reported differences in treatment of based on insurance status US and may highlight unmet needs a vulnerable population, particularly because new data show that surgery lead to improved outcomes select populations. Large-scale, national needed better inform this debate.(1) Does likelihood operative fixation vary among patients with different types insurance? (2) What demographic socioeconomic...
Distal radius fractures are one of the most common upper extremity in orthopaedics. Unstable distal often managed with volar locking plates (VLP). However, fragment-specific fixation may be more appropriate for dorsal rim, ulnar corner, isolated radial styloid, and small corner fragments. While approach is common, surgeon should also familiar dorsal, radial, extensile approaches. This article discusses a contemporary surgical technique open reduction internal using VLP via flexor carpi...
Posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) injury is an uncommon yet debilitating complication following distal bicep tendon repair. There are case reports of acute intraoperative PIN related to retractor placement, drill trajectory, and incarceration. We report three cases delayed neuropathy in the setting a loose cortical button. All patients had resolution their pain with removal button decompression radial tunnel. The purpose this series to: 1) highlight possibility as cause proximal forearm...
Scaphoid fractures are the most encountered carpal fracture. Unstable with substantial comminution or bone loss, as well scaphoid nonunions, may benefit from fixation using volar locking plates. This article presents a surgical technique for open reduction and internal of plate non-vascularized autogenous cancellous graft distal radius.
