Background: Anomalies such as ectopic tooth eruption and transposition are challenging situations that may complicate the orthodontic treatment. Some of these anomalies can only be diagnosed and managed by accurate long-term radiographic examination. Delayed diagnosis could impede simple preventive orthodontic measurements and cause more costly and consuming future complicated orthodontic treatment.Case Description: We described in detail the long term follow-up of a young female patient referring with a unilateral ectopic eruption. The patient was under close observation and regular orthodontic treatment to guide a unilateral ectopic eruption into a complete transposition of an upper left canine and first premolar. The long term follow-up revealed stables results.Practical Implications: Early diagnosis and preventive measurements in patients suffering from anomalies such as ectopic eruption is crucial in order to avoid further complications such as tooth impaction and dilaceration formation and adopting the best choice of treatment.

Long Term Follow Up

Objective This is the first description of long-term follow-up of a case of Freeman-Sheldon syndrome. Microstomia was treated with a mouth expander for 2 to 3 hours per day before active orthodontic treatment. Separate impressions were necessary in each quadrant of both upper and lower jaws because of limited mouth opening. Conclusion Orthodontic treatment improved the patient's Class II malocclusion, which was accompanied by crowding and a deep bite.

Significant Difference

Few studies of ankle arthrodesis have assessed tarsal mobility. This study was performed to evaluate radiographically the effect of ankle arthrodesis on tarsal motion. Thirty patients (31 ankles) returned for clinical and radiographic examination, review of charts, and completion of questionnarie forms. Radiographs were evaluated for success of fusion, position of fusion, tarsal motion, hindfoot position, and subtalar and midtarsal arthritis. The median follow-up time was 7.0 years (range 2–20 years). Results showed that fusion was achieved in 22 patients (71%). The evaluation score based on the grading system of Mazur et al. 16 correlated with success of fusion and patient satisfaction. However, no correlation existed between evaluation score and tarsal motion or position of fusion in the sagittal or coronal planes. Radiographic evaluation showed no significant difference between tarsal motion of the fused side and the unfused side. Tarsal mobility was not affected by ankle arthrodesis or by the techniques performed to achieve fusion.

The Mean

Flexible idiopathic flatfoot is very common in growing age and rarely causes pain or disability. Surgery is indicated only in severe symptomatic cases that are resistant to conservative treatment, and numerous surgical procedures have been proposed. Lateral column calcaneal lengthening as described by Evans and modified by Mosca is a widely used surgical technique for the correction of severe symptomatic flexible flatfoot. In the present study, we report the long-term clinical and radiographic results in 14 adolescent patients (mean age: 12.8 years) affected by severe symptomatic flexible flatfoot, surgically treated by Evans–Mosca procedure, for a total of 26 treated feet (12 cases bilateral and 2 unilateral). In all cases, surgery was indicated for the presence of significant symptoms resistant to nonsurgical management. Clinical evaluation was made according to the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Scale, the Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI) Score, and Yoo et al.’s criteria. Radiographic evaluation was made using anteroposterior and lateral weight-bearing radiographs of the feet to evaluate Meary’s angle and Costa–Bertani’s angle and to evaluate possible osteoarthritic changes in the midtarsal joints. At follow-up (mean: 7 years and 7 months), we observed a satisfactory result in all patients. The mean average score of the AOFAS Ankle-Hindfoot Scale improved from 60.03 points to 95.26; the mean FADI score improved from 71.41 to 97.44; and according to Yoo et al.’s criteria, the average clinical outcome score was 10.96. At radiographic examination, nonunion of the calcaneal osteotomy was never observed. Meary’s angle improved from an average preoperative value of 25° to 1.38° at follow-up; Costa–Bertani’s angle improved from an average preoperative value of 154.2° to 130.9° at follow-up. In no case, significant radiographic signs of midtarsal joint arthritis were observed. According to our results, we believe that Evans–Mosca technique is a valid option of surgical treatment for severe idiopathic flexible flatfoot and allows a satisfactory correction of the deformity with a low rate of complications.

SummaryThe objective of our study was to investigate, retrospectively, the role of triple pelvic osteotomy in the management of traumatic coxofemoral luxation. Nineteen patients were identified from medical record data and four dogs returned for long-term physical, goniometric and radiographic evaluation. Seventeen of nineteen dogs had maintenance of reduction of the hip. Due to poor outcome, two of these seventeen dogs required salvage procedures. Three of four dogs that returned for long-term follow-up, owner evaluation, radiographic scoring, and physical examination had satisfactory results. These four dogs had manual goniometric evaluations performed on the affected side, and the contralateral hip. A paired student t-test was used for statistical analysis, and internal rotation was the only value which was significantly (p d0.05) different between the two sides. Reduction alone is not a representation of success when evaluating open management of coxofemoral luxation, because two dogs with poor limb function necessitated femoral head and neck excision for limb salvage. The TPO does have a role in the treatment of traumatic coxofemoral luxation, but may not be sufficient in cases involving congenital dysplasia and/or intraarticular fractures.Triple pelvic osteotomy is a successful means of mitigating the sequela of congenital hip subluxation. This surgical technique can be used to manage dogs with traumatic coxofemoral luxation. There was an indication in this study that reduction alone is not a satisfactory means of evaluating management of traumatic coxofemoral luxation. Dogs with congenital dysplasia or intra-articular fractures associated with traumatic luxation may require alternate methods of reduction.
