Summary: There is significant radiological and histopathological overlap between Aneurysmal Bone Cysts (ABC) and Simple Bone Cysts (SBC), but molecular testing can improve diagnostic accuracy in bone cysts.

Summary: Bone cysts are tumor-like lesions of bone, primarily divided into simple or unicameral cysts and aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC). ABC is a blood-filled cyst that commonly occurs in the metaphysis of long bones, flat bones, and vertebrae. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and potential pathological fractures. Treatment options range from surgical resection to minimally invasive techniques such as artery embolization, sclerotherapy, and radiotherapy.

Summary: Aneurysmal bone cysts are rare bone lesions, traditionally treated with open surgery but now shifting towards less invasive procedures. Denosumab, known for its efficacy in giant cell tumors of bone, has shown promise in treating fibro-osseus lesions affecting children and adolescents.

Summary: This case report describes a cat with an aneurysmal bone cyst in the humerus. Sequential computed tomography findings over 4 months showed progressive bone destruction and vascular development. The cat declined amputation and eventually died during the postoperative recovery period.

Summary: This multicenter retrospective study aimed to identify risk factors for treatment failure in extra-spinal aneurysmal bone cysts. The results showed a high risk of recurrence following surgical treatment, especially in younger patients. However, a substantial number of patients who underwent limited curettage at the time of biopsy had their cyst healed.

Summary: Denosumab shows positive impact on pain and neurological symptoms in non-surgical ABCs, but has a recurrence rate of 18.6%. Adverse events occurred in a significant number of patients, with some requiring intensive care unit admission.

Summary: Simple bone cysts (SBCs) commonly occur in the proximal aspect of the humerus and femur, with intercurrent pathological fractures. Most SBCs can be conservatively treated, but surgical intervention is necessary in cases where the fracture is completely dislocated, joint affecting, unstable, or open.

Summary: Soft tissue aneurysmal bone cyst is rare, and FDG PET/CT findings can be helpful in diagnosis, but pathology remains crucial for definitive diagnosis.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the treatment methods for ABC and found that selective arterial embolization had higher treatment success rates and lower recurrence rates compared to curettage and bone grafting. Furthermore, the complication rate was also lower in the embolization group.

Summary: This study analyzed 17 patients with primary aneurysmal bone cysts of the pelvis, and discussed the importance of polidocanol instillations as a minimally invasive treatment option. The results showed that sequential instillations of polidocanol are a promising treatment method for ABCs of the pelvis.

Summary: This study analyzed jaw aneurysmal bone cyst cases and found that approximately 25% were secondary. Pathological classification and surgical treatment had a significant impact on recurrence rate, while age or radiographic features had minimal effect on prognosis.

Summary: In this single-center study, MRI scans were found to be superior to biplanar radiographs in evaluating aneurysmal bone cysts. Sequential percutaneous instillations of polidocanol were effective in treating primary ABCs, but multiple instillations may be required for optimal results. Conversion to intralesional curettage or en bloc resection may be necessary in some cases.

Summary: The study aimed to determine whether secondary aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is associated with a higher risk of local recurrence after curettage in patients with giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) and to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of fluid-fluid levels (FFLs) detected on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for secondary ABC. The results showed that secondary ABC does not increase the risk of local recurrence after curettage in patients with GCTB. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of FFLs detected on preoperative MRI for diagnosing secondary ABC were 36.8%, 90.5%, 53.8%, and 82.6%, respectively.

Summary: Felidae species exhibit diverse diet and hunting strategies, with body size influencing the angle between iliac articular surfaces. This angle is related to hunting techniques and prey size preference, with smaller cats having a wider angle. The findings highlight different selective pressures on Felids based on their hunting behavior and physical attributes.

Summary: Recent advances in technology have allowed for the use of larger head sizes in total hip arthroplasty, resulting in a lower incidence of dislocation. The study found that using larger head sizes, specifically 36 mm, significantly decreased the dislocation rate, although proper cup positioning is still crucial for success.

Summary: The stability of different subtrochanteric osteotomy techniques was mechanically tested, and the oblique-45 degrees osteotomy showed the best stability when combined with subtrochanteric osteotomy. This technique may also promote bone healing by providing larger contact surfaces in the osteotomy lines.

Summary: Prosthetic joint infection is a common occurrence, but Gardnerella vaginalis has rarely been reported as the causative agent. This case report presents the first instance of a male patient with prosthetic joint infection caused by G. vaginalis. The presence of slow-growing, gram-variable rods in culture should raise suspicion for this pathogen.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on orthopedic surgery operations in a tertiary referral center. Results showed a decrease in elective surgeries and a shift towards more emergent and urgent surgeries during the pandemic. Trauma was the leading subspecialty during the pandemic, with hip fractures being the most common cause and simple falls being the largest group of trauma mechanisms.
