Erythema dyschromicum perstans may resolve in 2-3 years in prepubertal children, but it is more likely to persist in adults. [1] Erythema dyschromicum perstans (EDP) most often affects darker skinned patients, most frequently Latin Americans and Indians. It has also been reported in people of lighter skin colour and various ethnicities. It may occur in women more often than men. It is repoted in young adults than adults. The exact etiology of EDP is unknown. Damage to melanocytes and basal cell keratinocytes that is observed with EDP is due to an abnormal immune response to antigens with a predominance of CD8 + T lymphocytes in the dermis and HLA-DR +, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 + keratinocytes in the epidermis. EDP is characterized in histological examination by a vacuolar liquefactive degeneration of the basal cell layer with dermal melanosis and a perivascular infiltrate.","PeriodicalId":394480,"journal":{"name":"Orthopaedics and Surgical Sports Medicine","volume":"188 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124753379","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}

A pooled analysis of data on leisure-time physical activity (activities done at an individual’s discretion generally to improve or maintain fitness or health) from 12 prospective U.S. and European cohort studies reported a risk reduction of 16%, when comparing individuals who were most active to those where least active. Incidence of both distal colon and proximal colon cancers is lower in people who are more physically active than in those who are less physically active. Physical activity is also associated with a decreased risk of colon adenomas (polyps), a type of colon polyp that may develop into colon cancer.

Volleyball knows a frantic expansion with more and more spectacular gestures sources of various traumas. Our study is to analyse the trauma related to the volleyball game; relative to our context. Patients and Methods We collected 69 injuries from 63 licensed players of the Senegalese Volleyball Federation and who had regularly played the Championship and the National Cup for the 2016-2017 season. Data collection was carried out through a completed closed questionnaire. Results Forty (40) boys and twenty-three (23) girls, volleyball players, participated in this study. The average age was 23.6 years old. The average weight was 68.63 kg. The average height was 184.36 cm. The average age of the onset of the practice was 14.79 years. The average duration of practice was 8.67 years. The incidence of lesions was 1.84 per 1000 hours of play with 90.5% of players reporting injury. The 50.7% lesions were on the lower limb. Sprain accounted for 62.3% of the lesions; musculotendinous lesions 14.5% and bruises 11.6%. The majority of lesions, 53.6%, occurred during training. The net area was the site of 50.7% of the lesions. Physical contact accounted for 59.4% of the lesions. The balloon was involved in 33.3% of the lesions. The fall on the playground was responsible for 33.3% of the injuries. Receiving an opponent's weight on the ankle accounted for 76.06% of ankle sprains. The management was functional in 81.2%. It was satisfactory in 89.5%. The average rest period was 4.4 weeks. Conclusion Although considered a non-contact sport and therefore less virulent, relative to other team sports; volleyball is also a source of trauma. Beyond its originality to be realized in a sub-Saharan country; this study confirms the universality of the trauma related the volleyball, a sport that continues to take off.","PeriodicalId":394480,"journal":{"name":"Orthopaedics and Surgical Sports Medicine","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131796212","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}

It originates from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, laying deep to the extensor carpi radialis longus and extensor digitorum communis, and superficial to the supinator. Insertion occurs at the base of the third metacarpal. The radial nerve or a derivative supplies innervation. Its significance in orthopedics is highlighted by its involvement in multiple surgical approaches, such as the Thompson and Kaplan approaches for exposure of the radius, as well as its association with several routinely observed pathologies. Many of the associated syndromes, such as lateral epicondylitis, arise from repetitive gripping motions or overuse and are frequently seen in the orthopedic clinic. This review seeks to provide a comprehensive summary of the relevance of the ECRB to the orthopedic setting to broaden knowledge of its anatomy and increase recognition and proper management of associated pathologies.","PeriodicalId":394480,"journal":{"name":"Orthopaedics and Surgical Sports Medicine","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116028782","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}

Double Plating with single incision or dual incisions provide more insult to the compromised soft tissue. However, single locking plate combines the technical advantages of an angular stable plate with those of the modern biological plating technique. Methods: The Study was held at Razi Orthopedic hospital in Kuwait. Between May 2012 and November 2013, 20 patients with a mean age of 37.65 years (Range from 24– 57 years) with bicondylar tibial plateau fractures with or without metaphyseal extension. Patients were diagnosed clinically, checked with standard X-rays, CT was done for all cases. Patients were treated by single lateral anatomically contoured locked plate through LISS or Polyaxial locking plate systems with or without additional screws from medial side. Radiological evaluation and functional assessment was done according to the Rasmussen Knee score. Patients were followed-up for an average of 12 months. Results: Union was achieved in all patients with a mean knee range of motion of 1.5°-130° (range: 0°-10° for extension lag, range: 100°-135° for flexion). The mean Functional Rasmussen Knee score at 6 month follow up (25.32±1.53 SD) ranged from (23.0-28.0). The mean Functional Rasmussen Knee score at last follow-up was (28.33±1.57 SD) ranged between (25.0-30.0) with significant P value (P value<0.001). The mean Anatomical Rasmussen Knee score at 6 month follow up (16.11±1.56 SD) ranged from (14.0-18.0). The mean Anatomical Rasmussen Knee score at last follow-up was (16.67±1.37 SD) ranged from (14.0-18.0) with insignificant P value (P value 0.096 ). Of the 20 patients, one patient had wound related problems, one patient had preoperative compartment syndrome, one patient suffered from hardware irritation and one patient had fixation failure upon which revision with double plating done for him. Conclusions: Surgical treatment of bicondylar tibial plateau fractures with the single lateral locked plate that was evaluated in our study can lead to a good functional and anatomical outcome and considered an effective system for providing fracture stabilization provided that the correct surgical technique is used.
