Parathyroid carcinoma presenting as genu valgum.
X-rays wrist showed fraying but no cupping. Investigations showed Ionized calcium level 1.627mol/l (normal-1.12-1.23mmol/l), 24 hour urine calcium 420 mg/ day, serum phosphorus 2.9gm/dL, serum alkaline phosphatase 2820 IU, and vitamin D3 level 18.88 ng/mL (normal 11.1-42.9 ng/mL). Abdomen ultrasound showed cystitis. Tubular reabsorption of phosphate was 92 (Max 100min-82). ABG pH was normal. Ul...
متن کاملA simple technique for varus supracondylar osteotomy in genu valgum.
Varus osteotomy of the distal femur is recommended for osteoarthritis of the knee with significant valgus deformity, but the operation is difficult to plan and perform. A simple technique involving a jig referenced to the line of the tibia is described. This allows accurate overcorrection by a few degrees, with impaction and secure fixation at the osteotomy. It has been successful, with no comp...
متن کاملMedial femorotibial osteoarthritis and genu-valgum: Where is the problem?
Frontal malalignment of the lower limbs has been shown to be closely linked to the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis. Restoration of a satisfactory alignment after total knee arthroplasty has a positive impact on implant durability and functional result. An angle measurement commonly used to assess this alignment is the HKA angle (hipknee-ankle). It is measured on a full length AP ra...
متن کاملThe correction of genu valgum by epiphysial stapling.
Forty-nine patients treated by epiphysial stapling for idiopathic genu valgum are reviewed. The children were aged from eleven to fourteen and a half years. The severity of the condition and subsequent correction were assessed by measuring the inter-malleolar distance. Results show that femoral stapling is the treatment of choice for most patients with inter-malleolar separation of up to 12-5 c...
متن کامل47Ca turnover in endemic fluorosis and endemic genu valgum.
1. Calcium turnover was determined after intravenous injection of radioactive 47Ca in patients with fluorosis and endemic genu valgum and in age-matched controls. Total Ca turnover in the body, loss of Ca from the body in urine, faeces and sweat (external turnover) and bone mineralization rate were calculated from whole-body retention of 47Ca and specific activity of 47Ca in serum. 2. Total Ca ...
