Their diagnosis is sometimes challenging, and their treatment in unusual sites, especially in the pediatric age group is difficult, too. This study aims to support the paraclinical measures along proper consultation to approach the pelvic ABC. Methods: We present a 9-year-old female who suffered from pain in the left hip 3 months before the referral. A pelvic mass was diagnosed and unfortunately misdiagnosed with an ovarian mass. It was led to a wrong operation with a wrong approach by a general surgeon and result in intra-operative bleeding and delay in diagnosis and treatment. the final diagnosis was massive ABC in the supra-acetabular area with extension to the ilium and pubic. Conclusion: Pelvis is one of the most challenging sites for the diagnosis and treatment of bone tumors. Large ABC tumors in the hip are unusual and may be presented by non-specific signs and symptoms. Therefore complete clinical and radiological evaluations should be done before any attempt to surgically remove the pelvic mass. Prognosis is excellent if the pelvic mass remove wisely by an experienced hip surgeon","PeriodicalId":286829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Orthopedic Science","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127622819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we aimed to find how lunate morphology (absence or presence of hamate facet) affects the severity of Kienböck disease. Objectives: Evaluation of the relationship between lunate morphology and kienbocks disease. Methods: A total of 106 patients with stage IIIA or IIIB of Kienböck disease at initial presentation were included in this study. Modified Litchman classification system and standardized lateral radiographs were used for staging the Kienböck disease. Lunate morphology was investigated on plain radiograph and computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging and was classified into type I (absence of hamate facet) and type II (presence of hamate facet). Results: The mean±SD age of the patients was 33.5±9.2 years. Kienböck disease stage IIIA and IIIB were identified in 68 (64.2%) and 38 (35.8%), respectively. Hamate facet was present in 65 (61.3%) patients and absent 41 (38.7%) patients. A significant association was found between lunate morphology and stage of disease so that the number of patients with lunate type I was significantly more in stage IIIB and number of patients with lunate type II was significantly more in stage IIIA (p<0.001). Conclusion: Lunate morphology is associated with the severity of Kienböck disease in patients initially presented with stage IIIA or IIIB. These associations could be implicated to prevent disease progression as well as to optimize the outcome of treatment.","PeriodicalId":286829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Orthopedic Science","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131970266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objectives: In this study, we aimed at investigating if the preoperative features of the patients can provide this data. Methods: A total of 30 patients who underwent primary TKA for severe osteoarthritic genu varum deformity (varus angle ≥20º) were evaluated in this retrospective study. Prosthesis selection was based on preoperative and intraoperative information. Demographic data, preoperative correctability of the deformity, and intraoperative information, including the reduction osteotomy, soft-tissue release, and pie-crust technique, were retrospectively collected. Soft-tissue release was performed in a sequential manner in 3 steps. Results: The study population included 4 males and 26 females with a mean±SD age of 64.6±8.7 years. A CCK prosthesis was used in 11 (36.7%) cases. A significant association was found between the preoperative correctability and the type of prosthesis. In other words, all CCK prostheses were used in patients who were preoperatively non-correctable (P<0.001). Also, the step of release was significantly associated with the type of prosthesis, and CCK prosthesis was used in all patients with step 3 release (P<0.001). Preoperative correctability was significantly related to the step of release, as well. It means that all deformities with step 3 release were preoperatively non-correctable (P=0.008). Conclusion: The preoperative clinical evaluation of correctability could be used in the identification of patients who might need a CCK prosthesis.","PeriodicalId":286829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Orthopedic Science","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129512002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the unpredictable prognosis, morbidity, and mortality of these tumors have raised them as one of the health problems. Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of these tumors in Isfahan province, Iran. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 489 patients with malignant bone and soft tissue tumors were enrolled from 2006 to 2016. Their data were available in Isfahan medical centers, and their diagnostic biopsies from their hospitals’ records were examined. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS. Results: The most common tumors were in the descending order: Osteosarcoma (15.1%), Ewing sarcoma (13.7%), chondrosarcoma (13.1%), fibrosarcoma and neurofibrosarcoma (10.8%), malignant fibrous histiocytoma (7.8%), synovial sarcoma (6.7%), liposarcoma (6.5%), dermatofibrosarcoma (3.3%), rhabdomyosarcoma (3.1%), and leiomyosarcoma (3.1%). Other sarcomas comprised 16.8%. The highest prevalence of tumors was in Isfahan city. Conclusion: This study was conducted for the first time in Isfahan Province to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of malignant bone and soft tissue tumors. Our study results were similar to most studies conducted in different regions of the world. Considering the relatively high prevalence of malignant bone and soft tissue tumors in lower age groups, we recommend further studies in this area to manage this problem.","PeriodicalId":286829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Orthopedic Science","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126904168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we compared the functional outcome and complication rates of radial head resection with radial head fixation in a terrible triad setting. Objectives: Comparison of radial head resection with radial head fixation in terrible triad. Methods: In the present retrospective study, the outcome of terrible triad injury in 41 patients, in whom the radial head component was managed with either radial head resection (n=28) or open reduction and internal fixation (n=13), was compared. The subjective assessments of the outcome included visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, the Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS), and the disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) score. The objective assessment of outcome included the evaluation of elbow range of motion (ROM) and elbow stability. Results: The mean±SD age of the patients was 39.2±10.2 years. The demographic characteristics of the patients of the two study groups were not statistically different. The mean supination/pronation arc of motion was not significantly different between the two study groups (P=0.11). The mean flexion/extension arc of motion was significantly more in the fixation group (P=0.001). The mean MEPS and DASH scores were not significantly different between the study groups (P=0.22 and P=0.49, respectively). The mean VAS was significantly more in the fixation group (P=0.04). All the elbows were stable at the last follow-up. The postoperative complications (arthrosis and heterotopic ossification) were considerably more in the resection group. Conclusion: Although comparable at function, the present study favors the radial head fixation whenever possible to avoid the postoperative complications of radial head reaction.","PeriodicalId":286829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Orthopedic Science","volume":"230 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130655733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
