Analysis of balance in adults with chronic axial spinal pain receiving medial branch block or radiofrequency ablation procedures

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medial branch blocks (MBB) and radiofrequency ablations (RFA) are common diagnostic, prognostic, and interventional procedures performed for the management of cervical and lumbar spine facetogenic pain. Although these procedures have established utility as pain management strategies, it is unclear if the disruption in function of ...

Metastatic prostate cancer recurrence within a percutaneous computed tomography guided needle biopsy tract: A rare case report

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Metastatic prostate cancer tumor seeding within a percutaneous biopsy tract is rare. While reports of tumor seeding following perineal and transrectal prostate biopsies exist, no cases of prostate cancer tumor seeding along a metastatic percutaneous bone biopsy tract detected by prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron ...
