A rare case of atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation occurred after pediatric cervical spine surgery performed to remove a dumbbell-shaped meningioma at the level of the C1/C2 vertebrae. This case is classified as a post-surgical atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation, but has a very rare morphology that has not previously been reported. Although there are several reports about post-surgical atlantoaxia...

Objective — To investigate the effect of phacoemulsification cataract extraction in patients with moderate or severe lens subluxation scleral fixed capsular tension ring implantation. Methods A total 43 (47 eyes) (scope dislocation exceeds 120 degrees) underwent aspiration our hospital from November 2018 to May 2019. During intraoperative injection/aspiration cortex, was put into capsule, and t...

Traumatic brain injury can cause various pathological conditions both in the eyeball and cranial cavity. The presented clinical case demonstrates features of differential diagnosis direct carotid-cavernous fistula secondary post-traumatic glaucoma. Direct is formation a communication between internal carotid artery cavernous sinus discharge arterial blood into it. first symptom pulsating noise ...

STUDY DESIGN This study analyzed the natural course of cervical spine involvement in rheumatoid arthritis by serial radiographs. OBJECTIVES The purpose was to determine the pattern of progression of cervical spine lesions in rheumatoid arthritis and predictors for the extent of progression. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Subluxation frequently occurs as a result of rheumatoid involvement of the...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the angle between the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) and the glenoid during arthroscopic surgery and its correlation with biceps subluxation on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, we evaluated the relationship of this angle with subscapularis tears and biceps pathologies. METHODS MRI and arthroscopic images of 270 consecut...

subluxation of the proximal interphalangeal joint (pipj or pastern joint) is an uncommon condition that occurs in the forelimb or hindlimb. thoroughbred racehorses rarely show dorsal pastern subluxation (thoroughbred ringbone) secondarily to an injury to the soft tissues supporting the fetlock. a 4-year-old thoroughbred mare was presented with signs of lameness, swelling of the dorsal aspect of...

PURPOSE Gap junctions play a critical role in the metabolic homeostasis and maintenance of transparency of fibers within the ocular lens. As part of a long-term effort to establish the relationship between lens gap junction proteins, normal lens development, and cataractogenesis, we report here the regional localization of the human MP70 (Connexin 50) gene. METHODS Fluorescence in situ hybrid...

Patella subluxation assessed on dynamic MRI has previously been shown to be associated with anterior knee pain. In this MRI study of 60 patients we investigated the relationship between subluxation and multiple bony, cartilaginous and soft-tissue factors that might predispose to subluxation using discriminant function analysis. Patella engagement (% of patella cartilage overlapping with trochle...
