Metallosis: A complication in the guided growing rod system used in treatment of scoliosis
Jae Hyuk Yang, Chang Hwa Ham, Yeok Gu Hwang, Seung Woo SuhIndian Journal of Orthopaedics 2017 51(6):714-718Soft tissue reaction following metallic debris formation with the use of guided growing rod system has not been previously reported in human. The purpose of this study is to report complications caused by metallosis in a guided growing rod system. A 9-year-old female patient, who underwent treatment for the progressive idiopathic scoliosis (with Cobb's angle of 71°) with the guided growing rod system. Her Cobb's angle was corrected to 13° with the index surgery. During the...

Management of nail bed injuries associated with fingertip injuries
Conclusion: Accurate and timely diagnosis of nail bed injury and its meticulous repair is cardinal to the management of any nail bed injury. However all nail bed injuries must be seen in the context of associated injuries of the finger tip complex, namely skin, soft tissue and distal phalanx injuries. Fixation of associated bony injury which closely underlines the nail bed and provides physical support to the nail bed along with correction of soft tissue injuries in the form of flaps or grafts, compounded by the repair or replacement of nail plate in the first 24 hours.

Treatment of femoroacetabular impingement with a mini-open direct anterior approach
Conclusions: Mini-open DAA is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of FAI that gives good relief of symptoms and allows a successful return to preoperative activity levels. Further research with a longer followup period is needed to evaluate the influence of surgery on natural history of FAI. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Biomechanical analysis of range of motion and failure characteristics of osteoporotic spinal compression fractures in human cadaver
Conclusion: The location of the needle (superior or central) and treatment type (unipedicular or bipedicular) had no significant effect on the ROM at the index site. At the adjacent levels, a significant increase occurred with therapy through a unipedicular approach into the centrum of the vertebra at the treated segment. (Source: Indian Journal of Orthopaedics)

Cervical laminectomy with lateral mass screw fixation in cervical spondylotic myelopathy: Neurological and sagittal alignment outcome: Do we need lateral mass screws at each segment ?
Conclusion: The multilevel cervical laminectomy and instrumentation with lateral mass screw for multilevel cervical myelopathy is a safe technique that provides decompression of the spinal cord, prevents the development of kyphotic spinal deformity and posterior tension band of the spinal cord as associated with laminoplasty or uninstrumented laminectomy.

STITCHLESS percutaneous endoscopic cervical discectomy: Are we moving towards day care discectomy procedure ?
Conclusion: Potential benefits of sPECD include safety as it is done under local anesthesia, smaller incision, short hospitalization, fewer complications, avoidance of fusion, preservation of segmental motion, preventing the adjacent segment degeneration, and avoidance of the risk related to the hardware (nonunion and pseudarthrosis). sPECD is an effective treatment modality for soft cervical disc herniation.
