BACKGROUND
Injury to subchondral bone is associated with knee pain and osteoarthritis (OA). A percutaneous calcium phosphate injection is a novel approach in which subchondral bone marrow edema lesions are percutaneously injected with calcium phosphate. In theory, calcium phosphate provides
The temporal bones from a 58-year-old white woman who had had hereditary congenital deafness were examined with the techniques of microdissection and surface preparations followed by sectioning of the modiolus. There was bilateral, almost total sensorineural degeneration, which also involved the
Increased contact pressures of the osteoarthritic joint can lead to underlying osseous injury, with resultant marrow edema changes of the subchondral bone. These osteoarthritis-related bone marrow lesions can subsequently lead to persistent pain and further disability. Limited joint preservation
Osteochondritis dissecans lesions occur frequently in children and adolescents. Treatment can be challenging and depends on the status of the articular cartilage and subchondral bone. Injection of calcium phosphate bone substitute into the area of subchondral bone edema (Subchondroplasty; Knee
Case: We report on 2 patients who developed avascular necrosis (AVN) of the talus and poor patient outcomes after undergoing calcium phosphate injection into talar dome bone marrow lesions.
Conclusion:
Bone marrow lesions (BMLs) are localized areas of edema within subchondral bone, which are often due to early chondromalacia changes, subchondral insufficiency stress or microfractures, and/or avascular necrosis. The presence of BMLs worsen outcomes after arthroscopy and arthroplasty, thus making
Subchondral acetabular edema and cysts, as a consequence of degenerative changes of the hip, are associated with disability, pain, and worsened function in this joint. The arthroscopic treatment of intra-articular pathologies, such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral tears, when
Bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in the knee represent focal edema caused by subchondral bone attrition and microfractures to the trabecular bone. These lesions are poor prognostic indicators for several orthopaedic procedures but also have been associated with the progression of osteoarthritis. Current
Evaluation and treatment of workplace knee injuries with pre existing arthritis is difficult from both a causality and a clinical perspective. The current study evaluates the relevance and treatment of the bone marrow edema (BME) in injured workers.179
Case reports on two patients with metastatic pulmonary calcification are presented. Both suffered from long standing chronic renal failure and received immunosuppressive therapy for a (non-functioning) renal transplant. Laboratory tests disclosed hyperphosphatemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
OBJECTIVE
Introduction: Information on chemical and phase composition of pancreoliths is limited and discrepant. There are reports, that pancreoliths are composed by calcium, phosphate, calcium carbonate or combination of calcium with fatty acids The aim of the work is studying of structural
A syndrome of pulmonary alveolar septal calcinosis, pneumothorax, and pneumomediastinum, leading to rapidly progressive acute respiratory insufficiency and death was observed in 2 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Primary clinical and radiological considerations in these patients
Electrolytes are essential for basic life functioning such as maintaining electrical neutrality in the cells, generation, and conduction of action potentials in the nerves and muscles. Sodium, potassium, and chloride are the significant electrolytes along with magnesium, calcium, phosphate, and
