Read Full License Page 1/16 Abstract Background: The main treatment method of the primary aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is to curettage and bone grafts with high-speed burring, radiotherapy, sclerotherapy, arterial embolism and hormone therapy can be used for the lesions whose location cannot be easily exposed by the surgery. Regardless of the method, high recurrence rates are a common problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate retrospectively the use of titanium elastic nails as a internal xation in the treatment of aneurysmal bone cysts in children. Methods: Children with histological primary aneurysmal bone cyst were evaluated between 2010 to 2017. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the treatment plan. Patients in the study group operated with curettage and bone grafts with high-speed burring + internal xation of titanium elastic nails (TEN), and patients in the control group operated with curettage and bone grafts with high-speed burring. The curative effect of the children in the 2 groups were analyzed statistically according to the imaging results (Neer grading) and MSTS functional evaluation.

  • Meniscus Tear
    291 North Fireweed Soldotna, AK 99669 907-262-6454 www.kenaipeninsulaortho.com ______________________________________________________________________________________ Orthopaedic Surgeon: Hand and Wrist Specialist: Henry G. Krull, M.D. Edwin D. Vyhmeister, M.D. Meniscus Tear The meniscus is the rubbery, soft cartilage cushion in the knee. There are two of the C-shaped cushions in each knee, a medial (inner) and lateral (outer) meniscus. They sit between the two bones that form the knee joint, and function to cushion and support the knee. The meniscus can tear with injury or degeneration, or a combination of both. The medial meniscus is torn about 10X more frequently than the lateral meniscus. In young people, the meniscus usually tears with an injury. In older people, the cartilage can degenerate (weaken) with age, and can tear with or without an injury; spontaneous tears can occur. Meniscal tears can occur in association with other injuries to the knee. Symptoms: Pain is the usual symptom of complaint with a meniscus tear. There is often a noticeable “pop.” Swelling and stiffness can also occur. Mechanical symptoms are common—clicking, popping, and locking. Sometimes there is just a feeling that something is wrong inside the knee. Pain can be sharp, or can be dull and aching. Meniscus tears do not heal, but sometimes the symptoms dissipate. Chronic, intermittent symptoms is very common. Meniscal tears can cause a feeling of instability, or can cause the knee to buckle or give way. Cause: Injuries, particularly with sports, are a common cause of meniscal tears in young people. As people age, the meniscus tissue weakens through the normal degenerative process, and tears can occur spontaneously, or with simple activities, such as getting up from a chair, and changing direction while walking.

  • Saethre-Chotzen Syndrome
    Saethre-Chotzen syndrome Authors: Professor L. Clauser1 and Doctor M. Galié Creation Date: June 2002 Update: July 2004 Scientific Editor: Professor Raoul CM. Hennekam 1Department of craniomaxillofacial surgery, St. Anna Hospital and University, Corso Giovecca, 203, 44100 Ferrara, Italy. [email protected] Abstract Keywords Disease name and synonyms Excluded diseases Definition Prevalence Management including treatment Etiology Diagnostic methods Genetic counseling Antenatal diagnosis Unresolved questions References Abstract Saethre-Chotzen Syndrome (SCS) is an inherited craniosynostotic condition, with both premature fusion of cranial sutures (craniostenosis) and limb abnormalities. The most common clinical features, present in more than a third of patients, consist of coronal synostosis, brachycephaly, low frontal hairline, facial asymmetry, hypertelorism, broad halluces, and clinodactyly. The estimated birth incidence is 1/25,000 to 1/50,000 but because the phenotype can be very mild, the entity is likely to be underdiagnosed. SCS is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with a high penetrance and variable expression. The TWIST gene located at chromosome 7p21-p22, is responsible for SCS and encodes a transcription factor regulating head mesenchyme cell development during cranial tube formation. Some patients with an overlapping SCS phenotype have mutations in the FGFR3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) gene; especially the Pro250Arg mutation in FGFR3 (Muenke syndrome) can resemble SCS to a great extent.

  • Non-Cardiac Manifestations of Marfan Syndrome
    Keynote Lecture Series Non-cardiac manifestations of Marfan syndrome Anne H. Child Molecular and Clinical Sciences Research Institute, St George’s University of London, Cranmer Terrace, London, UK Correspondence to: Dr. Anne H. Child, MD, FRCP. Reader in Cardiovascular Genetics, Molecular and Clinical Sciences Research Institute, St George's University of London, Cranmer Terrace, London SW17 0RE, UK. Email: [email protected]. Because of the widespread distribution of fibrillin 1 in the body, Marfan syndrome (MFS) affects virtually every system. The expression of this single dominantly inherited gene is variable within a family, and between families. There is some genotype-phenotype correlation which is helpful in guiding long-term prognosis, and management. In general gene mutations have been reported in clusters, with those having mainly ocular manifestations occurring in exons 1 to 15 of this 65-exon gene; those causing cardiac problems often involving cysteine replacement in a calcium binding EGF-like sequence; the most severe mutations occurring in exons 25–32, causing neonatal MFS diagnosed at birth, and severe enough to cause death frequently before the age of 2. Other correlations will certainly be found in future. This condition is progressive, and the manifestations unfold according to age. For example, if the lens is going to dislocate this usually occurs by age 10; scoliosis usually presents itself between the ages of 8 and 15; height should be monitored carefully between the onset of puberty and cessation of growth approximately age 17 or 18. Holistic care should be offered by one doctor who oversees the patient’s welfare. This should be a paediatrician, paediatric cardiologist, or general practitioner in the case of an affected child.

  • MEDICAL GENETICS RESIDENCY PROGRAM Department of Pediatrics
    MEDICAL GENETICS RESIDENCY PROGRAM Department of Pediatrics University of Michigan Health Systems (734) 763-6767 1500 E. Medical Center Drive (734) 763-6561 (fax) D5240 MPB Ann Arbor, MI 48109-5718 Biochemical Genetics Goals and Objectives Director: Drs. Ayesha Ahmad and Shane C. Quinonez The goals and objectives of the Biochemical Genetics Clinic rotation in the Medical Genetics Residency Program are to provide the resident with exposure to all aspects of care of metabolic disease and counseling in accordance with the Residency Review Committee for Medical Genetics expectations and to fulfill criteria for board eligibility by the American Board of Medical Genetics. Patient Care The resident will become familiar with the evaluation, diagnosis and management of urea cycle disorders, organic acidemias, disorders of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism and numerous other inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs). Residents will gain exposure in performing and expertise in interpreting biochemical analyses relevant to the diagnosis and management of human genetic diseases. By the end of the rotation the resident should be able to identify signs and symptoms of IEMs, formulate a differential diagnosis, order appropriate tests and recognize normal variants and complex patterns of metabolites. Residents will be able to manage acute metabolic crises and provide chronic management of patients with an IEM. Residents should be able to interpret NBS results, collaborate with the primary provider to act upon results in a timely manner, develop a differential diagnosis and order appropriate confirmatory testing and communicate results to families. Medical Knowledge Through coursework and didactic sessions with attending physicians, residents will become familiar with fundamental concepts, molecular biology and biochemistry relevant to IEMs.
