The frequency of obstetric palsy ranges from 0.5 to 3.0 cases per 1000 live births. The functional outcome disorders are determined by the nature of the damage and the number of damaged roots of the brachial plexus. There are 50 % of patients have complete recovery, 15 % have severe functional disorders of the upper limb, and 35 % have some limitation of the shoulder joint function. There are 3 variants of residual phenomena in children with obstetric palsy: paresis, paralysis, and co‑contraction. The article describes the mechanisms of nerve regeneration in children and adults, the pathogenesis of contractions and motor disorders in general in children with obstetric palsy, and modern methods of treatment of co‑contraction. This article will be useful for neurologists, rehabilitation specialists, and orthopedists.

A systematic review of modern methods of treatment of vitiligo is presented. Treatment of vitiligo is a difficult task. The data of various studies are shown. It has been revealed that during the treatment of associated diseases, positive effects of vitiligo in the form of pigmentation recovery from some drugs are noticed. Therefore, many drugs are considered not only as promising vitiligo treatment, but also as independent. The purpose of this article is to update information in the treatment of vitiligo, including existing and new methods.

Presented current data on the etiology of rosacea, the main aspects of pathogenesis, clinical forms of the disease. Reflects trigger factors leading to rosacea, as well as complicating its course. Modern methods of treatment are described, including the use of new safe preparations of ivermectin and brimonidine, providing a good, lasting effect of clinical manifestations of rosacea. The role of laser technology, actively occupying a leading place in the choice of physiotherapeutic treatment method, is noted. The need for an individual approach in the choice of therapy for each patient with rosacea is emphasized.

На сегодняшний день панические атаки являются достаточно распространенным и трудным для лечения заболеванием. Помимо этого, не существует четкой схемы терапии данной патологии, в связи с чем, считаем целесообразным рассмотреть и проанализировать современные способы терапии данного недуга. Today, panic attacks are a fairly common and difficult disease to treat. In addition, there is no clear treatment scheme for this pathology, in connection with which we consider it appropriate to consider and analyze modern methods of therapy for this disease.

The Difference

Abstract Background Heterotopic ossification (HO) is noted most frequently in periarticular muscles and has not yet been reported in the cruciate ligaments of the knee. We present a rare case of symptomatic ossification of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Case presentation A 59-year-old woman had a 2-year history of knee pain that was getting worse during knee motion and had restricted knee motion for 1 year. X-rays could not show the lesion clearly. Multi-planar computed tomography demonstrated ossification within the PCL with mild osteoarthritic changes and excluded any other intra-articular pathology. The patient underwent arthroscopic debridement and then experienced immediate relief of pain and complete recovery of range of motion. Conclusion This is the first report of HO in the PCL as a possible cause of knee pain and restricted knee motion. On the basis of literature review, this case elaborates the difference between HO and calcification in the ligaments, the related factors inducing HO and the undefined pathogenesis, and favorable prognosis after adequate treatment.
