Abstract:

PsABio (ClinicalTrials: NCT02627768) is a prospective, observational, real-world cohort study collecting data on patients with a confirmed diagnosis of PsA starting either ustekinumab (UST) or a new TNF inhibitor (TNFi) in 8 European countries. The purpose of the study PsABio is to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability and persistence of ustekinumab and TNFis for adult patients with PsA according to CASPAR criteria commencing first-, second- or third- line bDMARDs in real-world routine clinical management.

This interim analysis presents 6-month follow-up data on joint-related outcomes in the Spanish cohort.

Abstract:

Panton-Valentine Leukocidin (PVL) toxin producing strains of staphylococcus aureus are known to cause severe skin and soft tissue infections.  We present a case report of a patient who suffered from septic arthritis and overwhelming sepsis from proven PVL toxin secreting staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract:

We demonstrate our protocol for treatment of heterotopic ossification (HO) after osteosynthesis of complex elbow fractures (CEF) by presenting a case of a patient with fracture dislocation of the distal humerus in whom very good end results were achieved.

Abstract:

Purpose: Femoral head fracture-dislocations are serious articular fractures that are associated with soft tissue injuries and are challenging to treat. Arthroscopic surgery may be a way to treat fracture reduction and fixation, thereby avoiding the need for extensive arthrotomy.

Methods: We followed a consecutive series of nine patients with femoral head fracture dislocation via a scope-assisted percutaneous headless screw fixation between 2016 and 2018. The clinical and radiological results were assessed.

Results: The locations of the fracture were all involving infra-foveal area. The mean follow-up duration was 18 (range 12-24) months. The mean Harris hip score was 90.8 (range 88-93) at the latest follow-up. No one showed early osteoarthritis (OA), heterotopic ossification (HO) or avascular necrosis (AVN). The average maximal displacement of fracture site was improved from preoperative 6.79mm (range 4.21-12.32) to postoperative 2.76mm (range 0.97-3.97). Concomitant intra-articular hip lesions secondary to traumatic hip dislocation can also be treated.

Conclusion: Managing the infra-foveal fracture of the femoral head using arthroscopic reduction and fixation with headless screws can be a safe and minimally invasive option. More patients and longer follow-up are needed for a definite conclusion.

Abstract:

Intra-articular calcaneal fractures are commonly occured after high-energy trauma. A variety of techniques exists for anatomic reduction and surgical fixation .The optimal management of displaced intra-articular calcaneus fractures is controversial and represents a topic of sustained interest and research for the past two decades . Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) via an extensile L-shaped approach has gained many soft tissue complications. These complications include deep and superficial infections and wound sloughs, which reportedly occur in 1.8% to 27% of patients. This high frequency of infection is likely attributed to thin softtissue envelope around the calcaneus especially the lateral wall, which is exposed for surgery . Recently, less invasive surgical techniques for treating displaced intra-articular calcaneus fractures have been undertaken in an attempt to reduce complication rates and promising clinical and radiographic outcomes.These recent techniques include limited-incision sinus tarsi ORIF,percutaneous stabilization with pins and /or screws, and minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO). Objectives The purpose of our study is to improve functional outcome in patients with intraarticular calcaneus fractures. Methods This study was done in Zagazig University Hospitals,Egypt on 36 patiens with displaced intraarticular calcaneal fractures including displaced Essex-Lopresti fractures, Sanders type II fractures, Sanders type III fractures in patients with multiple co morbidities. Results & Discussion Results Collected data will be presented in tables and suitable graphs and analyzed by computer software (SPSS version 19) using appropriate statistical methods. Discussion done on results compared to related relevant literatures and specific researches to explain the reasons for getting such results. Conclusion less invasive surgical techniques for treating displaced calcaneus fractures are very effective and smart procedurs to reduce complications and improve recovery when surgery is indicated.
