Cementless Total Hip Replacement

Between 1980 and 1987 we have implanted 46 isoelastic cementless THR in 40 patients affected with rheumatoid arthritis. We have reviewed 38 hips clinically and by X-ray. The mean follow-up was 8,5 years. Harris hip scores ranged from 30.6 preoperatively to 73,4 post-operatively when reviewed. While on the other hand Merle D'Aubigné hip scores ranged from 7,06 pre-operatively to 15,59 post-operatively. All patients have been satisfied, and X-rays showed an improvement for both Charnely and Gruen X-ray score.

Experience in the diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of residua of brachial plexus paralysis in 25 infants is presented. Associated defects substantiate the traumatic nature of the deliveries. The electromyogram proved a valuable tool in the exact delineation of the pathology and in determination of prognosis. Early optimum treatment prevented atrophy and contractures. Of the 20 babies with adequate follow-up, approximately ⅓ recovered by 6 months with minimal deficit, over ½ recovered by 1 year with moderate residua to include persistent weakness, delay in bone growth, dislocation, and peculiar posturing of the arm; and the other three infants showed significant handicaps.

Long Term Follow Up

A second case of a retroperitoneal xanthogranuloma in a child is presented. The tumor is very rare, and its retroperitoneal location is characteristic. The importance of this tumor is its possible relation to the other known histiocytoses, such as eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease, and Letterer-Siwe disease. Long-term follow-up is needed before a patient can be considered cured by surgery and x-ray therapy.

AbstractWe present X-ray (Chandra), ultraviolet (Swift/UVOT; U band) and optical-infrared (Liverpool Telescope; griz bands) continuum light curves of Q0957+561 observed in the first half of 2010. A cross-correlation analysis of the light curves shows that the U-band fluctuation leads the other variations at higher and lower energies. The study constrains the geometry of the continuum emission regions in a distant radio-loud AGN for the first time. We note that our work opens a new window in echo-mapping of high-z AGNs with the use of lensed quasars, since the variability of some of the images of a given multiply-imaged quasar can be predicted in advance, provided there is a modest optical follow-up of the system.

The Subject

ABSTRACT Aneurysmal bone cyst is a cystic lesion that mimics a true neoplasm clinically and radiologically. They are most commonly located in the metaphysis of the long bones, and their occurrence in the calcaneum and transverse process of vertebra has rarely been reported. Aneurysmal bone cyst has various differential diagnoses and histopathology is needed to confirm the diagnosis. Although aggressive, these benign lesions require simple curettage and bone grafting. However, a recurrence rate of up to 59% is reported and needs continuous follow-up. Two cases of aneurysmal bone cyst diagnosed based on X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging in one of the cases and subsequent correlation with histopathology are reported in this communication. The literature on the subject is scanty and hence the report. How to cite this article Tyagi S, Hans P, Kumar H, Mohan V. Radiology of Aneurysmal Bone Cyst at Uncommon Locations: Report of Two Cases.

We have studied 34 skeletons of black-tailed deer, Odocoileus hemionus, of known age to determine the order of epiphysis closure in the long hones of the legs. There is an orderly sequence in this process in which the fore limb slightly precedes the hind limb at each site. The use of 14 epiphyses for each animal and four classes of closures has permitted the development of an index of skeletal maturity which can be used to estimate the age of an individual up to the age of 72 months, Inanitition apparently delays epiphysis closure by at least 12 months. Sex differences are uncertain.

Main Components

Scanning microscopy was used to study the surface of human gallstones and the surface of fractures. The specimens were obtained by operation, washed with water, dried at room temperature and shadowcasted with carbon and aluminum. Most of the specimens belong to patients from a series of X-ray follow-up study, examined during the last twenty years. So it was possible to evaluate approximately the age of these gallstones and to get information on the intensity of growing and solving.Cholesterol, a group of bile pigment substances and different salts of calcium, are the main components of human gallstones. By X-ray diffraction technique, infra-red spectroscopy and by chemical analysis it was demonstrated that all three components can be found in any gallstone. In the presence of water cholesterol crystallizes in pane-like plates of the triclinic crystal system.

It is well established that unique physiological information can be obtained by rapidly freezing cells in various functional states and analyzing the cell element content and distribution by electron probe x-ray microanalysis. (The other techniques of microanalysis that are amenable to imaging, such as electron energy loss spectroscopy, secondary ion mass spectroscopy, particle induced x-ray emission etc., are not addressed in this tutorial.) However, the usual processes of data acquisition are labor intensive and lengthy, requiring that x-ray counts be collected from individually selected regions of each cell in question and that data analysis be performed subsequent to data collection. A judicious combination of quantitative elemental maps and static raster probes adds not only an additional overall perception of what is occurring during a particular biological manipulation or event, but substantially increases data productivity. Recent advances in microcomputer instrumentation and software have made readily feasible the acquisition and processing of digital quantitative x-ray maps of one to several cells.

Introduction: Congenital Syphilis (CS) occurs through the transplacental transmission of Treponema pallidum in inadequately treated or non-treated pregnant women, and is capable of severe consequences such as miscarriage, preterm birth, congenital disease and/or neonatal death. CS has been showing an increasing incidence worldwide, with an increase of 208% from 2009 to 2015 in Brazil. Case report: 2-month old infant receives care in emergency service due to edema of right lower limb with pain in mobilization. X-ray with osteolytic lesion in distal fibula. Infant was sent to the Pediatrics Oncology clinic. Perinatal data: 7 prenatal appointments, negative serology at 10 and 30 weeks of gestation. End of pregnancy tests were not examined and tests for mother’s hospital admission were not requested. Mother undergone elective cesarean section at 38 weeks without complications. During the pediatric oncologist appointment, patient showed erythematous-squamous lesions in neck and other scar-like lesions in upper body. A new X-ray of lower limbs showed lesions in right fibula with periosteal reaction associated with aggressive osteolytic lesion compromising distal diaphysis, with cortical bone rupture and signs of pathological fracture, suggestive of eosinophilic granuloma. She was hospitalized for a lesion biopsy. Laboratory tests: hematocrit: 23.1 / hemoglobin 7.7 / leukocytes 10,130 (without left deviation) / platelets 638,000 / Negative Cytomegalovirus IgG and IgM and Toxoplasmosis IgG and IgM / VDRL 1:128. Congenital syphilis diagnosis with skin lesions, bone alterations and anemia. Lumbar puncture: glucose 55 / total proteins 26 / VDRL non reagent / 13 leukocytes (8% neutrophils; 84% monomorphonuclear; 8% macrophages) and 160 erythrocytes / negative VDRL and culture. X-ray of other long bones, ophthalmological evaluation and abdominal ultrasound without alterations. Patient was hospitalized for 14 days for treatment with Ceftriaxone 100mg/kg/day, due to the lack of Crystalline Penicillin in the hospital. She is now under outpatient follow-up. Discussion: CS is responsible for high rates of morbidity and mortality. The ongoing increase of cases of this pathology reflects a severe health issue and indicates failures in policies for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases, with inadequate follow-up of prenatal and maternity protocols.

A 42-year-old female presented in Neurology Department of Sir Salimullah Medical College with gradually worsening difficulty in talking and eating for the last four months. Examination revealed dystonic tongue, macerated lips due to continuous drooling of saliva and aspirated lungs. She had no history of taking antiparkinsonian, neuroleptics or any other drugs causing dystonia. Chest X-ray revealed aspiration pneumonia corrected later by antibiotics. She was treated with botulinum toxin type-A. Twenty units of toxin was injected in six sites of the tongue. The dystonic tongue became normal by 24 hours. Subsequent 16 weeks follow up showed very good result and the patient now can talk and eat normally. (J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2006; 24: 75-78)
