Current Concepts in Disorders of Sexual Development
Disorders of sex development (DSD) with or without ambiguous genitalia require medical attention to reach a definite diagnosis. Advances in identification of molecular causes of abnormal sex, heightened awareness of ethical issues and this necessitated a re-evaluation of nomenclature. The term DSD was proposed for congenital conditions in which chromosomal, gonadal or anatomical sex is atypical...
متن کاملMeniscal Roots: Current Concepts Review
Meniscal root tears are defined as radial tears located within 1 cm from the meniscal attachment or a bony rootavulsion. This injury is biomechanically comparable to a total meniscectomy, leading to compromised hoop stressesresulting in decreased tibiofemoral contact area and increased contact pressures in the involved compartment.These changes are detrimental to the articular cartilage and ult...
متن کاملPosterior Cruciate Ligament: Current Concepts Review
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is the largest and strongest ligament in the human knee, and the primary posteriorstabilizer. Recent anatomy and biomechanical studies have provided an improved understanding of PCL function. PCLinjuries are typically combined with other ligamentous, meniscal and chondral injuries. Stress radiography has becomean important and validated objective measure in...
متن کاملCurrent Concepts
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease process resulting from the failure of chondrocytes to repair damaged articular cartilage in synovial joints. Increased synthesis of tissue-destructive proteinases such as matrix metalloproteinases, increased chondrocyte apoptosis, and insufficient extracellular matrix generation result in a cartilage matrix that is unable to withstand normal mechanical stresses....
