Chondroma in an Elderly Patient

Salvador Labrador, Jose Manuel Llamazares-Medrano and Jesús Guzmán-Revuelta

Article Type: Clinical Picture | First Published: May 27, 2020

A 68-year-old male patient presented to our Clinic with unilateral knee pain for a period of 5 months. He was following treatment with NSAID and Omeprazole with no good outcome. We performed an X-ray on the symptomatic knee (Figures 1 and Figure 2) and we observed in the Metaphysis of distal Femur a heavily calcified lesion, well demarcated and evenly distributed throughout. Recent Laboratory tests were unremarkable. We concluded that this lesion could correspond to a Chondroma of distal Femur.....

Donald A Deinlein, Sakthivel Rajaram, Jorge L Perez and Mason B Frazier

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: June 06, 2019

The lateral approach to the spine, for spinal fusion, has gained interest from spine surgeons in recent years. The approach is less invasive, with less blood loss, decreased morbidity, and decreases length of stay in the hospital. The procedure has been shown to allow indirect decompression of the spinal canal and the intervertebral foramen. Segmental interbody arthrodesis may result in improved coronal and sagittal balance....

Miklos Bely and Agnes Apathy

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: August 04, 2018

Metabolic diseases and crystal induced arthropathies are characterized by deposits of crystal and/or non-crystalline (amorphous) calcium phosphates in synovial membranes (synovium) and periarticular soft tissues. Bone and cartilage may also be involved, and crystals may be present in the synovial fluid as well. Foreign bodies and refractile artefacts may vary the histopathological findings. Different crystals (with or without foreign bodies and/or refractile artefacts) may exist simultaneously i...

Radial MR Screen of the Sacroiliac Joints in the Lumbar Spine of Patients with Chronic Lower Back Pain

M Al-Mulla, V Babu, A Abdullah and W Mohammed

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: May 12, 2018

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reliably detect inflammation and structural changes in sacroiliac joints (SIJs) in patients with lower back pain (LBP). However, patients with LBP are usually referred for MRI of the lower back (e.g. lumbar spine LS), and imaging of the SIJs is rarely requested for these patients. The aim of this work is to use radial MRI as an additional screening technique for SIJ pathology presenting in lumbar spine patients with chronic LBP....

Guillén Astete CA , Pijoán Moratalla C, Quiñones Torres JR and Vázquez Díaz M

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: September 09, 2017

The existence of a vertebral body deformity is considered a relevant finding in order to start a secondary therapeutic prevention of osteoporosis in a population at risk. However, not all vertebral body deformities are properly identified and registered. In our experience, those, less striking, can be unnoticed. One of the most common radiographic studies of the axial skeleton is the lumbar and dorsal acute pain....
