Tarsal Bones

Tarsal coalition is an abnormal connection between tarsal bones, caused by an embryogenic failure. Its most common forms are calcaneonavicular and talocalcaneal coalition, which are present in 53% and 37% of the cases, respectively. The onset of symptoms is related to tarsal bone ossification, and mean age for this event is estimated at 16 years for calcaneonavicular coalition. Surgical treatment is indicated for patients who did not improve symptoms with conservative treatment. The aim of this study is to present a surgical technique as a treatment option for resection of calcaneonavicular coalition associated with abnormal cuboid-navicular joint.

Hydatidiform Moles

Background. The preferred treatment method of most hydatidiform moles is suction aspiration. In rare circumstances uterine abnormalities may preclude surgical treatment.Case. We report a case of complete molar pregnancy successfully treated with methotrexate followed by EMA/CO. A 38-year-old woman with a complete hydatidiform mole and multiple uterine fibroids underwent a failed attempt at suction aspiration. Following treatment with methotrexate, a nonmetastatic persistent trophoblastic tumour developed. Six cycles of EMA/CO led to complete remission.Conclusion. We propose that primary treatment of molar pregnancies with chemotherapy is a useful treatment option in cases where uterine abnormalities interfere with suction aspiration.

In this case, we will describe a 68-year-old man with combined femoral and tibial bone deformities who underwent robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) to treat his severe osteoarthritis in the setting of extra-articular deformities that altered the native anatomical axis and the kinematics of the deformed extra-articular bony structures which chronically generated a neomechanical axis. The combination of severe osteoarthritis with extra-articular deformities made the RATKA method the best surgical treatment option taking into account altered kinematics of the native joint which conventional jig-based total knee arthroplasty would not have prioritized during bony cuts and implant positioning. The patient underwent successful knee arthroplasty with robotic arm-assisted technology with restoration of the mechanical axis.

Coronary Artery Fistulas

Coronary artery fistula is an uncommon congenital disease that requires invasive treatment for symptomatic patients. Although percutaneous intervention has become the popular treatment option, surgical treatment is preferred for severely tortuous coronary artery fistulas. We report a case of an extremely tortuous coronary artery fistula successfully treated with the support of the GuideLiner catheter and the mother-grandchild technique.

Clinical case of surgical treatment of advanced congenital kyphoscoliosis in 12 years old child is reported. Radiographs and CT at presentation failed to reveal the entire anomaly. By analysis of priorly made radiographs hemivertebra L1 was recognized. At genitourinary assessment L-shaped kidney was detected. A full-size 3D-printed model was used for surgical planning. Vertebral column resection as treatment option was discussed, but due to high neurologic complication rate this approach was refused. After preoperative 35 days halo-femoral traction anterior instrumented fusion was performed. Right ureter was stented for intraoperative urologic injury prevention. Scoliosis correction of 32% and kyphosis of 14% was achieved. 5 months later definitive posterior uninstrumented fusion was performed. Spinal deformities caused by vertebral malformations progress dramatically unless they are treated early. An advanced case is a clinical challenge because of technical difficulties and poor result. Vertebral column resection is a treatment option for severe kyphoscoliosis, but it’s indications should be strictly individualized. Preoperative halo-femoral traction is the most safe correction method in spinal deformity due to prolonged and gradual action. 3d-printed models are practical for surgical planning. The model may be used intraoperatively as a 3D-reference. In congenital scoliosis genitourinary system should be assessed meticulously, and urologist advice in relevant case is necessary.
