Absztrakt Bevezetés: A primer malignus csontdaganatok kb. 30%-a chondrosarcoma, leginkább az elülső mellkasfalon jelentkeznek. Azoknak a betegeknek, akik megfelelő sebészi kezelést kapnak, 97%-os a 10 éves túlélési rátájuk. Ezenfelül fontos a terhelhetőség és a légzési funkció megőrzése, nem utolsósorban pedig az esztétikai eredmény. Beteg: A szerzők egy 44 éves férfi beteg esetét ismertetik, aki sportmasszőrként dolgozott, és a manubrium sterni Grade II chondrosarcomája miatt került műtétre. A beavatkozás során a sternum érintett része szélesen az épben kimetszésre került, a helyreállítás során a Dual Mesht bal oldali pectoralis major lebennyel fedték, valamint egyedi megoldásként a semitendinosus és -gracilis izmok inát felhasználva fixáltak két claviculát egymáshoz, ezáltal nagyfokú stabilitást adva a mellkasfalnak, és -visszaadva a felső végtag, illetve a vállöv terhelhetőségét. Eredmény: Eseménytelen posztoperatív szak után a beteg hamar felépült, és gyorsan visszatérhetett korábbi, a vállövet jelentősen igénybe vevő munkájához. Következtetés: A szerzők nem találtak hasonló műtéti eljárást az irodalomban, és ajánlják alkalmazását hasonló esetekben.

AbstractRecent epidemiological analyses in fencing have shown that injuries and pain linked specifically to fencing training/competition were evident in 92.8% of fencers. Specifically the prevalence of Achilles tendon pathology has increased substantially in recent years, and males have been identified as being at greater risk of Achilles tendon injury compared to their female counterparts. This study aimed to examine gender differences in Achilles tendon loading during the fencing lunge.Achilles tendon load was obtained from eight male and eight female club level epee fencers using a 3D motion capture system and force platform information as they completed simulated lunges. Independent t-tests were performed on the data to determine whether differences existed.The results show that males were associated with significantly greater Achilles tendon loading rates in comparison to females.This suggests that male fencers may be at greater risk from Achilles tendon pathology as a function of fencing training/ competition.

The pectoralis major is a widely used muscle in reconstruction surgery for replacement soft tissue defects of a head, neck, thorax, upper limbs and restoration of muscle active function. The peculiarities of anatomy of the pectoralis major makes it possible to divide the muscle into several segments with their own innervations and supply and use them independently from each other. This article describes the anatomy of the pectoralis major and the opportunity for clinical applications of different segments of this muscle. The authors demonstrate the result of the restoration of shoulder and elbow flexion in a patient with arthrogryposis due to simultaneous transfer of the proximal part of pectoralis major to the anterior part of the deltoid muscle and the distal part of pectoralis major to the biceps with good functional results. The article will be useful for plastic surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and physiotherapists.
