A skeletal survey revealed another cystic lesion in the left tibia. ...

Objective: Burosumab, a recombinant human monoclonal antibody that inhibits FGF23, was approved by the FDA in April, 2018 for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) in children and adults. XLH pediatric patients are typically affected with lower extremity deformities, short stature, bone pain, and limited physical activity. Burosumab is superior to conventional therapy in normalizing blood phosphate levels, thereby healing rickets, decreasing leg bowing, and reducing...

Introduction: Using the autograft bones in treatment orthopaedic diseases and trauma is common. However, cases of the large bone fragments autoplasty in acute trauma is rare. We have studied the case of succesfull autoplasty of the large tibial fragment in severe road accident.Materials and methods: Child O., born in 2000, was delivered to the emergency room of Mogilev City Hospital after road accident (he was hit by a car while crossing the street). His...

Objectives: Allografting is often used in the surgical treatment of skeletal deformities in children’s orthopedics. The aim of our study was to investigate the response of child bone tissue to the cortical and cortico-cancellous allografting, the dynamics of remodelling in various areas of the skeleton.Methods: Bone grafting was applied in 166 children over 3 years in the department of orthopedics and traumatology. 93 had foot deformities, 33 –...
