5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Mediated Photodynamic Therapy on Wound Healing: A Systemic Review of Human Evidences
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review summarized the commonly used therapeutic parameters for ALA-PDT in the clinical treatment of skin wounds.

Cuboid Cobbles Hinder Elite Youth Football Player
We describe an elite youth football player who developed lateral foot pain of previously unknown origin. A thorough patient history and physical examination as well as an in-depth presentation of radiographic findings on Computed tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan were described. Through this combination, the puzzle was resolved and a rare peroneus longus tendinopathy due to bony spurs in the cuboid groove was diagnosed. A peroneus longus exploration, release and reduction of the cuboidal bone spurs was performed and intensive rehabilitation phase followed. The patient successfully returned to perfor...
