Bone health in adults with non‐ambulatory neuromuscular disorders: scoping review of risk factors, diagnosis and management

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

Unilateral Dual‐Plane Puncture Percutaneous Vertebroplasty Reduces Re‐Collapse in Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures by Advancing Cement Delivery

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1322-1331, May 2025.
Trajectory of the unilateral dual‐plane puncture. The sagittal CT scan after surgery clearly shows the puncture trajectory of the unilateral dual‐plane puncture. The bone cement simultaneously contacted both the upper and lower end plates. ABSTRACT Purpose Evaluate the efficacy of a novel unilateral dual‐plane puncture technique in improving bone ...

Combine Short‐Segment Fixation and Leverage Reduction Technique to Correct Kyphotic Angle in Kümmell's Disease

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study introduces a leverage reduction technique with short‐segment fixation for Kümmell's disease and kyphosis deformity. This advanced approach reliably restores vertebral height, corrects kyphosis, and improves clinical outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective Kümmell disease is a prevalent spinal condition characterized by vertebral fractures and ...

Generalized Joint Hypermobility in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: Greater Curve Flexibility, Larger Thoracic Kyphosis, but Higher Complication Risk

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Generalized joint hypermobility in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is linked to greater spinal flexibility and increased thoracic kyphosis, but also elevates the risk of surgical complications, despite no significant differences in patient‐reported outcomes.

Camptocormia and drop head syndrome secondary to myotonic dystrophy type 1: a case series and literature review

open access: yesThe Journal of the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2023
Camptocormia and drop head syndrome (DHS) is an abnormal flexion of the spine (kyphosis) caused by paraspinal muscle weakness. Camptocormia is used when the kyphosis is at the thoracolumbar levels and DHS is used when the kyphosis is in the cervical area.
