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.

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,...

For surgical treatment of unstable distal radius fractures, fixed-angled locking volar plate fixation is becoming popular nowadays because some advantages over other techniques. In this article, we discuss the fitting fixed-angle plates to in relation changes radial angles.First, took conventional radiography images 18 dried radii and later measured palmar subchondral angle, dorsal mid-subchondral cortical angle using lateral radiography.According measurements, angles (alpha) ranged from...

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 ±...

Although many anatomic, morphologic, and radiologic studies have been carried out for the femur as all other bones of skeletal system, we could not find any morphometric study to guide orthopedic surgeons on dynamic hip screw-plate (DHS-plate) applications proximal femur. Materials methods: The lateral cortex width 125 adult, dry, grossly intact right left cadaver femora was measured region in which DHS-plate applied, results were analyzed statistically. Results: mean value 27.63 mm. While...

The labrum and transverse acetabular ligament (TAL) are classically described as distinct anatomical structures with abundant mechanoreceptors free nerve fibers. They deepen the joint act natural barriers against dislocation, thus providing additional stability. We hypothesized that severe coxarthrosis leads to elimination of TAL mechanoreceptors. This study evaluated microscopic anatomy specifically investigated neurological status these structures.Labral specimens from 35 consecutive...

The dorsal tubercle of the radius, once called Lister’s tubercle, is used as a landmark in wrist arthroscopy, joint injections, and similar surgical clinical procedures. However, there no useful information reference anatomy books literature. aim this study was to identify anatomical localization on dorsum radius relation radial styloid process ulnar notch demonstrate importance these relationships. We studied 20 dried cadaver specimens. distances from were measured by using digital...

The operative reconstruction of a torn or insufficient anterior cruciate ligament has become routine surgical procedure in orthopedics. long-term success an depends on the ability graft to heal adequately bone tunnel. Investigators studying reconstructions described healing within tunnel as osseous ingrowth and incorporation. In particular, helping using autologous material for best integration process was new idea that helped us set up this study.The purpose study is show effect...

Hydatid cyst is one of the five most diagnosed zoonotic diseases in Mediterranean region. However, intramuscular localisation very rare. It reported that muscular involvement constitutes 1-5.4% all Echinococcus infections. Here we would like to report an unusual case hydatid gluteus muscle, which had been treated with both surgical and medical treatment.

BACKGROUND:This retrospective study aims to compare the efficacy of computed tomography-guided percutaneous excision and radiofrequency ablation in treatment osteoid osteoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS:We evaluated 40 patients with osteoma who underwent either or between 2012 2015. The cohort consisted 10 female 30 male patients, a mean age 15.1 years (range: 4-27 years) follow-up time 19.02 months 11-39 months). Percutaneous was performed 20 while remaining patients. RESULTS:The success rates...

OBJETIVO: Desenvolver uma nova técnica de liberação percutânea do dedo em gatilho, usando microbisturi oftalmológico vitreorretiniano (MVR) lâmina 19. MÉTODO: O tratamento conservador gatilho inclui, com frequência, injeção local esteroide. Esse método apresenta alta taxa falha, sendo necessárias injeções repetitivas. Quando o recomenda-se a céu aberto da polia A1. Foram relatados vários métodos que empregam diversos instrumentos. Usamos um (MVR, microvitreoretinal blade) 19 na gatilho....

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a critical complication after arthroplasty and accompanied by increasing rates of morbidity mortality. Several studies have aimed at preventing PJI.To research the knowledge level attitudes orthopedic surgeons, who play key role in both managing PJI.We conducted web-based survey to evaluate surgeons' regarding PJI. The Likert scale utilized consisted 30 questions which were prepared based on "Proceedings International Consensus Joint Infection".A total...

Background: Two main factors determine the strength of tendon repair; tensile material and gripping capacity a suture configuration. Different repair techniques materials were developed to increase repairs but none seem provide enough with safety margins for early active mobilization. In order overcome this problem suturing implants are being developed. We designed two different implants. The aim study was measure tendon-holding capacities these biomechanically compare them frequently used...

In the investigation of hip development in newborns and infants, ultrasonography radiography are widely used, but their optimal roles this setting remain controversial.Here we describe an 8.5-month-old infant who had undergone at a primary care facility was referred to our hospital be evaluated for developmental dysplasia hip. Ultrasonography showed no according standard criteria, retardation femoral head apparent on radiograph.This patient's findings demonstrate that abnormalities epiphysis...

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive non-inflammatory joint disease that affects particularly cartilage within all structures of the joint. Diagnosis osteoarthritis confirmed with clinical and radiological findings. Its incidence rises age. The joints most frequently affected by are; knees, hips, spine, distal proximal interphalangial hands, first carpometacarpal metatarsophalengial Typically OA presented activity related or mechanical pain in earlier periods, while may also occur during...
