Uygur Evolution of Morphology: Modifications to Size and Pattern Abstract A remarkable property of developing organisms is the consistency and robustness within the formation of the body plan. In many animals, morphological pattern formation is orchestrated by conserved signaling pathways, through a process of strict spatio-temporal regulation of cell fate specification. Although morphological patterns have been the focus of both classical and recent studies, little is known about how this robust process is modified throughout evolution to accomodate different morphological adaptations. In this dissertation, I first examine how morphological patterns are conserved throughout the enourmous diversity of size in animal kingdom.

Orthopedic Surgery, Harbor-University of California Los Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles, USA 3. Pathology, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, USA Corresponding author: J. Manuel Sarmiento, [email protected] Abstract Chondromas are rare, benign tumors composed of cartilaginous tissue that mainly affect the metaphases of long tubular bones. Juxtacortical (periosteal) chondromas arise from the surface of periosteum and rarely affect the cervical spine. We present a patient with a spinal juxtacortical chondroma causing spinal cord compression and a cervical deformity treated with surgical resection and circumferential spinal fixation and stabilization. A 55-year-old female with past medical history of Crohn’s disease with years of neck pain, balance issues, and left upper extremity radicular symptoms. Cervical spine x-rays show kyphosis with an apex at C5, degenerative changes of the endplates and facet joints, and grade 2 anterolisthesis C4 on C5 with no abnormal motion with flexion/extension. MRI showed a left sided C5-6 extramedullary mass measuring 11 x 11 x 15 mm causing spinal cord compression and neural foraminal narrowing. Her pain is worsening and refractory to physical therapy, gabapentin and methocarbamol. A C4-5 & C5-6 anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, C4-5 & C5-6 laminectomy for tumor resection, and C4-5 & C5-6 posterior fusion with instrumentation was performed.

Abstract Enchondromas are common intraosseous, usually benign cartilaginous tumors, that develop in close proximity to growth plate cartilage. When multiple enchondromas are present, the condition is called enchondromatosis also known as Ollier disease (WHO terminology). The estimated prevalence of Ollier disease is 1/100,000. Clinical manifestations often appear in the first decade of life. Ollier disease is characterized by an asymmetric distribution of cartilage lesions and these can be extremely variable (in terms of size, number, location, evolution of enchondromas, age of onset and of diagnosis, requirement for surgery). Clinical problems caused by enchondromas include skeletal deformities, limb-length discrepancy, and the potential risk for malignant change to chondrosarcoma.

Never before on U.S. soil has an event like this transpired. The symposium was chaired by Drs. Matthew A. Halanski and Todd Milbrandt. The goals of the symposium were to: 1. Educate attendees on the current multidisciplinary knowledge of normal bone growth and development 2. Highlight various causes of abnormal growth and discuss available treatments and future possibilities 3. Identify key areas of focused research and establish multidisciplinary collaborations In addition to formal didactic sessions, interactive discussions and networking opportunities were provided to allow cross pollination and collaborations between orthopaedic surgeons and other experts. More than 20 basic science and clinical faculty with expertise in biomedical engineering, cellular biology, developmental biology, endocrinology, genetics and gene therapy, molecular biology, nephrology, orthopaedic surgery, pediatrics, and stem cell technology, participated in the event.
