Osteoma osteoide de radio proximal
2001
La localización del osteoma osteoide a nivel proximal del radio es excepcional. Su diagnóstico constituye un problema, precediendo al dolor a la aparición de signos radiográficos. Debe de incluirse en el diagnóstico diferencial de todo paciente con dolor en codo o antebrazo. Osteoid osteoma involving the proximal radius is uncommon and presents a dignostic problem. Pain precedes the radiographic appearance. It should be included in the differencial diagnosis when a patient has a radial forearm or elbow pain.

Does the increase in body weight change the knee and ankle joint loading in walking and running?
2015
Previous obese studies showed that there is a correlation of weight to joint load in the knee joint during walking. In load-carrying studies, there are several studies but no consistent findings in the knee joint loads in walking and running. Our aim was to investigate how the joint load changes in body weight gaining, using added vest that was 10% of the body weight to mimic the conditions. We used Vicon eight-camera system and five force platforms with inverse dynamics to calculate the peak ground reaction forces(GRFs), joint angle, joint moments, and patellofemoral contact forces(PFCF), patellafemoral stress(PFS), peak patellofemoral tendon force(PTF) and peak Achilles tendon force (ATF)…
Bone mineral density, structure, distribution and strength in men with prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation therapy
2019
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) improves survival in men with advanced prostate cancer (PCa), but has been associated with compromised skeletal health and increased fracture risk. However, limited previous research has investigated determinants of bone strength beyond DXA-derived areal bone mineral density (aBMD) in this population group. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the effects of ADT in men with PCa on BMD, bone structure, estimates of whole bone strength and cortical bone distribution. A total of 70 ADT-treated men, 52 PCa controls and 70 healthy controls had DXA lumbar spine and proximal femur aBMD and pQCT distal (4%) and proximal (66%) tibia and radius c…
Improving the cementation of the tibial component in knee arthroplasty : a study of four techniques in the cadaver.
2021
Aims The main objective of this study is to analyze the penetration of bone cement in four different full cementation techniques of the tibial tray. Methods In order to determine the best tibial tray cementation technique, we applied cement to 40 cryopreserved donor tibiae by four different techniques: 1) double-layer cementation of the tibial component and tibial bone with bone restrictor; 2) metallic cementation of the tibial component without bone restrictor; 3) bone cementation of the tibia with bone restrictor; and 4) superficial bone cementation of the tibia and metallic keel cementation of the tibial component without bone restrictor. We performed CT exams of all 40 subjects, and mea…
Retrograde Transpubic Screw Fixation
2017
In the vast majority of fragility fractures of the pelvis, fractures of the posterior and anterior pelvic ring occur combined. Fractures of the pubic rami above and below the obturator foramen are much more frequent than fractures of the pubic bone and fractures at the anterior lip of the acetabulum. Retrograde transpubic screw fixation is a minimally invasive technique for stabilization of pubic rami fractures. The anterior column corridor is a straight corridor between the anterior cortex of the superior pubic ramus near to the pubic tubercle and the external cortex of the ilium above the acetabulum. The minimal canal diameter, measured in 160 Japanese, was on average 13.5 mm for men and …
AB1057 risk factors associated with different lumbopelvic patterns of movement
2016
Background Rapid flexion movement increases the loading on the spine and it increases the risk of injuries 1 . In asymptomatic subjects lumbar-dominant and pelvis-dominant patterns of movement during trunk flexion have been observed 2,3 . However, little information about lumbar spine kinematics has been provided. Objectives To find out whether exhibiting different lumbopelvic patterns of movement during trunk flexion affects the kinematics of the lumbar spine in terms of velocity of motion. Methods Differential lumbar spine and pelvis angular displacement during the time course of a standardised sagittal trunk flexion from an upright position was recorded with an electromagnetic tracking d…
Interleukin 1 Gene Polymorphisms Presumably Participate in the Pathogenesis of Chronic Spontaneous Autocreative Urticaria
2020
Recent studies underline a potential role of autoimmune and genetic disturbances in this disorder pathogenesis. Variants in genes related to inflammatory processes may possibly predispose to chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) occurrence. The objective of this study was to search for an association of Il1 genes polymorphisms with the pathogenesis of CSU. The examined group consisted of 153 unrelated chronic spontaneous autoreactive urticaria patients. The control group consisted of 104 unrelated healthy volunteers. In all studied subjects, IL1 rs1304037 and rs180058 polymorphisms were examined. The Urticaria Activity Score was used to assess disease intensity. The age of disease onset was a…
Identifizierung unbekannter Leichen durch Röntgenbildvergleich
1995
Between 1987 and 1993, 30 unknown bodies were identified by means of pre- and postmortem radiographs at the Forensic Institute in Mainz. Our experience indicates that radiological identification comprises a useful, rapid and cheap method, at least as valuable as dactyloscopy or odontological comparisons. The ages of available radiographs were up to 25 years; the most suitable regions are the skull (11), pelvis and lumbar spine (6), lower femur and knee (5) and distal leg with the ankle joint (5). In respect of the problem of objectifying the probability of identity, possibilities for solutions are shown.
Die Sonographie der Lendenwirbelsäule und des lumbosakralen Überganges - Sonoanatomie und Möglichkeiten der sonographisch gesteuerten Facettengelenks…
2008
QUESTION Is sonography helpful in facet joint infiltration of the lumbar spine? METHOD The sonoanatomy of the lumbar spine and the of lumbosacral junction was examined and described in a skeleton and in 10 volunteers. One representative cross section and 3 longitudinal sections were defined. According to these results (no neurological symptoms) the possibilities of ultrasound guided infiltration of the facet joints was examined in 78 patients (36 female, 42 male, average age 55 y., 38-78 y.) with chronic low back pain and increase of pain by hyperextension. 5 ml Carbostesin partially in combination with steroids were applied to each joint. In all cases the tip of the syringe could be placed…
