Abstract

Purpose: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is characterized by increased bone fragility and susceptibility for fracture because of the mutation of genes. A few studies are there for treatment modalities of non-union femur fractures in children with OI. This study on adult OI patients aims to give insight into non-unions and their best treatment reporting the surgical modification by using a humeral nail for femoral fixation options to avert non-union. Best implant in the adolescent OI patients for the surgical reconstruction of the femur for correction of deformity healing non-union.
Methods: This is a retrospective, descriptive study of the OI type III fracture non-union and its treatment modality.
Conclusions: In Adolescent OI patients with the rare percentage of non-union with deformity with implant failure of the femur was fixed with Humerus nail having stable fixation deformity correction by both osteotomy rotational translational and conversion of non-union to union with a better result.

Abstract

Pyomyositis is an uncommon clinical entity affecting predominantly pediatric population. It presents with diffuse muscle involvement, mostly in the lower limb, with occasional abscess formation and need of drainage, coupled to an appropriate antibiotic therapy.
In this article we present a case of a previously healthy 11-year old boy with an acute onset of hip pain and fever, as well as elevation in blood leukocyte count and C-reactive protein. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a gadolinium-enhanced oedema of internal obturator, external obturator, adductors and quadratus femoris, with an intra-muscular abscess of external obturator. After two attempted percutaneous drainages the patient progressed to sepsis, with the need of open surgical drainage through transgluteal approach. Concomitantly, a deep venous thrombosis was also diagnosed.
After the appropriate drainage and a prolonged antibiotic regimen, patient’s condition improved, with full recovery and no sequelae.
