Abstract Background Despite higher incidence of patellofemoral pain (PFP) and consequently morbidity, the understanding about PF factors leading to PF arthritis is way lacking. Material and Methods A prospective study of first 80 patients who were diagnosed with chondromalacia patella (CMP) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) divided into early and late CMP groups were evaluated clinically, radiologically, and in terms of functional outcome. Results : Quadriceps angle, Clark’s test, and Insall–Salvati ratio results were nonsignificant despite greater values were observed in late CMP group, whereas trochlear morphology results (sulcus angle: 153:138 degrees and sulcus depth 3.9:5.4 mm) and clinical scores were significant in late CMP group (Kujala’s score: 61:78, whereas PF pain score: 43:25). Type-C patellar morphology was found in greater number in late CMP cohort. Conclusion Trochlear and patellar morphologies along with clinical scores play a key role in understanding of the CMP.

A Prospective Study

A prospective study of 32 patients was carried out to investigate the significance of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis of triangular fibrocartilage (TFC) lesions. Tears of the TFC can be diagnosed well by means of static MRI and arthroscopy. Dynamic MRI examination has an advantage in evaluating the stability of the TFC and ulnocarpal impingement. By means of dynamic MRI it was possible to make a preoperative diagnosis of an ulnocarpal impingement in five patients, a diagnosis which was confirmed through arthroscopy in all cases. In three further patients, dynamic MRI showed ulnocarpal impingement caused by instability of the ulnar attachment of the TFC. This kind of impingement could not be ascertained arthroscopically. Dynamic MRI extends the possibilities of evaluating obscure ulnar wrist pain. Its significance lies in the non-invasive examination of ulnocarpal impingement as well as the evaluation of TFC stability.

Plantar Fibromatosis

Plantar fibromatosis, or Ledderhose disease, is a rare hyperproliferative disorder of the plantar aponeurosis. It may occur at any age, with the greatest prevalence at middle age and beyond. This disorder is more common in men than woman and it is sometimes associated with other forms of fibromatosis. Diagnosis is based on clinical examination. Ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be useful to confirm the diagnosis. A 44-year-old man with Ledderhose disease who underwent ultrasound and MR is described in this paper.

A Prospective Study

A prospective study was performed on 28 patients who underwent surgery for tendon disorders around the ankle. Preoperatively, all patients had real-time, high resolution ultrasonography performed with a 7.5 or 10 mHz transducer. Twenty of these patients also had a preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the ankle. A total of 54 tendons were inspected intraoperativey, revealing a total of 24 intrasubstance or complete tendon tears. These surgical findings were compared with the ultrasound and MRI findings, from which the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were calculated for both modalities. Ultrasound produced results with a sensitivity measurement of 100%, specificity of 89.9%, and accuracy of 94.4%. MRI produced results with a sensitivity measurement of 23.4%, specificity of 100%, and accuracy of 65.75%. Ultrasound results were more sensitive and accurate than MRI in the detection of ankle tendon tears in our study.

Background: Esophageal atresia is a congenital disorder in which there is no esophagus because the proximal and distal esophagus is not connected. Babies with esophageal atresia can show several symptoms: foamy mouth, cyanosis, coughing and tightness, flatulence, oliguria, or worse, pneumonia symptoms. Accompanying anomalies occur in greater than 50% of neonates with esophageal atresia. Esophageal atresia is identified by ultrasound at 18 weeks of gestation, ultrasound, and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the fetal neck, or examination of a nasogastric tube in the neck of a newborn. The management of esophageal atresia is challenging. The main choice remains the surgical procedure, which usually involves making a stoma on the proximal esophagus and gastrostomy. However, surgery has risky complications. Case: In this case, it was reported that a 22-day-old baby with tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) type C with Ventricular Septum Defect and Atrial Septum Defect and Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV) underwent esophagostomy surgery with general anesthesia. Conclusion: Anesthesia management with general anesthesia, intubation using intravenous ketamine 3 mg, fentanyl 3µg, atracurium 1.5 mg gives stability for esophagostomy in a patient with a double outlet right ventricle.
