Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2008
Bilateral variations in dimensions of upper and lower limb bones are attributable to difference in mechanical stress and strain that the bones are subjected to during bone growth, and is referred to as directional asymmetry. This skeletal asymmetry in the upper limbs is usually prominent on the dominant side while in lower limbs on the other side ...

It is possible to identify many types of skeletal dysplasias and conditions involving limb deformities prenatally using ultrasound. It is likely that in the future, with the advancing technology and discoveries in molecular genetics, specific mutation analysis will become available for many of these conditions.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986
During the past ten to 20 years, there have been many advances in the understanding of the way in which skeletal metastases develop and great strides in the methods of detection, particularly with the development of the gamma camera and axial or whole-body skeletal scintigraphy.

Surgical Pathology Clinics, 2012
The most commonly diagnosed tumor in the skeleton represents metastatic disease. Metastatic carcinoma should be the first consideration in older patients with atypical radiologic findings or clinical features suggestive of a bone lesion. The primary goal in the setting of skeletal metastasis is usually palliation.

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1977
We reviewed the published reports of skeletal cryptococcosis and added three cases to the fifty-six in the literature. Eight of the patients in the reported cases probably did not have primary skeletal cryptococcosis. The potential toxicity of antifungal drugs in current use and the apparent effectiveness of surgical treatment for patients who only ...

This article discusses the role of imaging in the evaluation of patients with known or suspected malignancies. The radionuclide skeletal scintigram is the most sensitive imaging method for screening the skeleton for metastatic disease but is inherently nonspecific.

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2005
This review is intended to help the neonatologist who is asked to see a baby or speak to parents who are expecting a baby with signs of a generalised disturbance of bone growth and/or modelling. In this review, we will: define a skeletal dysplasia; discuss the presenting features of a skeletal dysplasia in pregnancy and the newborn period; suggest a ...

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2002
The skeletal dysplasias are a large, heterogeneous group of genetic conditions characterized by abnormal development, growth and maintenance of the elements (bones) that comprise the human skeleton. Many result in disproportionate short stature. The classification of these disorders has evolved over the past 30 years from purely clinical-pathological ...

This synthesis of the literature on radiotherapy for skeletal metastases is based on 171 scientific articles, including 13 randomized studies, 24 prospective studies, and 79 retrospective studies. These studies involve 13054 patients. Radiotherapy has been well documented as a method for alleviating pain, but the mechanisms underlying this effect are ...

Skeletal scintigraphic findings in endemic skeletal fluorosis
Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1993Endemic skeletal fluorosis is characterized by bone, joint and muscle pain, progressive ankylosis of various joints and crippling deformities. Whole body skeletal scintigraphy with 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate was performed for 17 symptomatic subjects suffering from this disorder.
