Tarsal Navicular Bone

Osteochondritis dissecans most often affects the convex articular surfaces of the knee, the elbow, and the ankle joints; other sites of manifestation are very rare. Here we report a case of osteochondritis dissecans of the talonavicular joint affecting the concave part of the tarsal navicular bone in a 22-year-old woman, which was successfully treated by surgery, leading to complete recovery. Early diagnosis and surgery in stages of undamaged cartilage may help to prevent disease progression and the development of disabling osteoarthritis in the physiologically heavily loaded talo-navicular joint.

Individualised Treatment

Post-traumatic bronchobiliary fistula (BBF) is a rare entity, with only a few cases reported worldwide. Bilioptysis is pathognomonic of the condition, however, bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage along with CT are used for confirmation. We describe this condition in a young woman who presented to us with bilioptysis following a laparotomy for blunt torso trauma. Diagnosis was made of BBF, followed by surgical management and complete recovery. We emphasise the signs of early diagnosis, confirmatory tests, individualised treatment and advocate surgical management as the gold standard of treatment.

Timely Treatment

The dermato parasitosis produced by the Sarcoptes scabiei mite hominis variety, has a population distribution related to overcrowding, poor sanitation, poverty and geo-climatic characteristics. Transmission occurs directly through skin or fomites. In the border town of Liquiñe in the Region de los Rios, Chile, a substantial amount of the population is subject to the above characteristics, with difficult access to digital communication and medical referrals. The incidence of scabies is modified through educational interventions, and local sanitation, as well as early diagnosis and timely treatment thus achieving a substantial change in prevalence. A case report is presented. Female patient, 33 years old presents with excoriated crusted lesions, with papules and pustules following two years of development, initial symptomatic management diagnosis of psoriasis and dermatitis, showed no improvement of the lesions. At the same time the 4 year old daughter of the patient presented with primary lesions similar to baseline characteristics. The child ́s lesions presented as vesicles in interdigital space, wrists, periumbilical region and mite grooves compatible with scabies. Permethrin 5% topical treatment was prescribed for the whole family, based on the recommendations of the MINSAL guide management is initiated. At 2 months of treatment therapy onset, complete recovery was achieved following two years of evolution of signs and symptoms. This case review aims to reinforce the ideas of early diagnosis, in both probable index case and contact, and continuing education in the community. Effective and timely treatment, in conjunction with the socio- cultural reality of each community, taking into account risk factors, such as seeking medical treatment and abandoning therapy. Furthermore, it is also intended to promote institutional networks for treatment dissemination, counseling by specialists and updated information for each dermatological presentation for the general medicine physician.

Clinical Recovery

Elbow arthroscopy was performed in 30 dogs of different breeds. The procedure was performed bilaterally in 20 of these dogs, yielding a total of 50 joints. Different lesions were found, varying from cartilage fissures (8) to fragmentation (42) of medial coronoid process (FCP) of the ulna. Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humerus medial condyle was associated in four of them. All of these cases displayed varying degrees of synovitis. Osteoarthrosis (OA) in varying intensity was observed in 44 joints. The majority of cases were treated two to four months after the manifestation of clinical signs. Good clinical recovery occurred in dogs with minimal joint lesions, where these were diagnosed and treated within four weeks of the onset of clinical symptoms. Early diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment prevent osteoarthrosis and preserve locomotor function.
