Abstract:

SummaryA two-year-old female neutered Whippet was referred for evaluation of progressive right pelvic limb lameness. Clinical examination revealed a fibrous band palpable along the cranial aspect of the quadriceps muscle group, and signs of discomfort on extension of the right hip. Computed tomography and ultrasonographic examination revealed mineralization of the tensor fascia lata muscle with enthesophytosis of its origin. Surgical exploration confirmed a fibrous band affecting the cranial border of the tensor fascia lata muscle. Resection of the band resulted in complete resolution of clinical signs. Histopathology was consistent with a fibrotic myopathy. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first case of a fibrotic myopathy affecting the tensor fascia lata muscle in the dog.

Abstract:

Two trials of the interexaminer reliability of Applied Kinesiology manual testing were conducted. On the first trial three clinicians, each with greater than ten years of experience with muscle testing procedures, tested 32 healthy individuals to estimate their agreement on the strength or weakness of right and left piriformis and right and left hamstring muscles. Significant agreement between examiners was found for piriformis muscles, but little significant agreement was noted when hamstrings were tested. In a second study, the same three examiners tested 53 subjects for strength or weakness of the pectoralis and tensor fascia lata muscles bilaterally. Significant interjudge agreement was found for pectoralis muscles, but no significant concordance could be found when the tensor fascia lata was examined.

Abstract:

Background: Osteonecrosis of femoral head (AVN) is a disabling condition with ill-defined etiology and pathogenesis. In more than 60% it leads to osteoarthritis of hip joint. Treatment for this condition includes both operative and non-operative methods with variable success rates. Surgical options being aimed at both conservation of femoral head and arthroplasty of hip joint. Aim of our study was to evaluate the efficacy of tensor fascia lata muscle pedicle grafting in the management of osteonecrosis of femoral head.Methods: 27 cases with a mean age of 38.7 years (range from 24 to 52) who underwent tensor fascia lata muscle pedicle grafting in the management of osteonecrosis of femoral head were prospectively evaluated with a mean follow up period of 7.3 years (range from 3 to 12 years). Watson-Jones approach was used in all patients. Average hospital stay was 12 days. Harris hip score was used for the evaluation of clinical outcome.Results: In our series of 27 cases, the Harris hip score was excellent (90-100) in 19, good (80-89) in 5, fair (70-79) in 2 and poor (<70) in 1 case at final follow up.Conclusions: Tensor fascia lata muscle pedicle grafting is an effective, technically easier, pain relieving head-preserving procedure and will improve outcome in properly selected patients with osteonecrosis of femoral head.

Abstract:

Nineteen patients with longstanding and permanent brachial plexus injuries underwent a three-staged surgical reconstruction. First, a sural nerve was grafted from the contralateral intact medial pectoral nerve to the paralyzed arm. One year later, a free gracilis muscle was transferred and neurotized by the grafted sural nerve. This procedure results in reanimation of elbow flexion. Finally, the biceps tendon was transferred to the finger flexors using a fascia bundle of tensor fascia lata muscle. Two of the gracilis muscle free transfers failed. In the remaining 17 patients, the overall result was evaluated as satisfactory in 11 patients and good in 6.

Abstract:

Increasing muscle strength in the treatment of Down syndrome represents an important stage of the intervention plan, because one of the symptoms of this disorder is a generalized hypotonia. The study was conducted on 13 patients diagnosed with Down syndrome, the physical therapy strategy envisaging the improvement of muscle strength, both analytically, on muscle groups, and globally, by using therapeutic physical exercises. At the end of the physical therapy, all of the manually tested muscles (the biceps brachii, the triceps brachii, the latissimus dorsi, the rhomboids, the quadratus lumborum, the pectoralis major, the gluteus maximus, the iliopsoas, the pelvitrochanteric muscles, the adductor muscles, the tensor fascia lata, the quadriceps, the hamstrings, the sartorius, the triceps surae, the tibialis anterior, and the peroneus muscles) changed their scores, from some initial values between 3.08 and 3.77 points, to final values between 4-02 and 4.50 points, which showed a good muscle tonicity, the children succeeding in performing their usual activities with better precision and coordination.

Abstract:

Equinus deformity is a condition in which dorsiflexion movement of the ankle joint is limited or decreased. Equinus deformity arises due to contracture/shortening/tightening in achilles tendon or soleus muscles or gastrocnemius muscle. The lengthening procedure of the achilles tendon can be done by various techniques such as the open or percutaneous method and Z-plasty versus sliding technique. Here we reported a case of post-traumatic equinus deformity of the right foot. The patient’s dorsiflexion movement was restricted. In this case, the patient was operated for open Z-plasty of the achilles tendon with rollover tensor fascia lata graft for lengthening of the contracted achilles tendon. The patient was discharged on the third postoperative day uneventfully. After 7 months of follow-up, the patient was walking normally without limping with the full range of motion at the right ankle joint as similar to his left ankle joint.

Abstract:

Aiming at the problem of how to store/release gait energy with high efficiency for the conventional unpowered lower extremity exoskeletons, an unpowered lower-limb exoskeleton is proposed. In the current study, the human motion model is established, and the change rule and recovery/utilization mechanism of gait energy are illustrated. The stiffness and metabolic cost of relevant muscles in lower extremity joints are obtained based on OpenSim software. The results show that stiffness of muscle is increased when muscle concentric contraction generates positive work, but it is reverse when muscle eccentric contraction generates negative work. Besides, metabolic cost of the soleus, gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior decreased about 31.5%, 34.7%, and 40%, respectively. Metabolic cost of the rectus femoris, tensor fascia lata, and sartorius decreased about 36.3%, 7%, and 5%, respectively, and the total metabolic cost of body decreased about 15.5%, under the exoskeleton conditions. The results of this study can provide a theoretical basis for the optimal design of unpowered lower extremity exoskeleton.

Abstract:

Norepinephrine (NE) turnover measured in individual skeletal muscles of the rat assessed sympathetic responses to cold (4 degrees C) and diet. Acute cold exposure increased NE turnover slightly (15–50%) in all muscles examined, including gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior, tensor fascia lata, and soleus, in contrast, cold-accelerated NE turnover in heart by one- to twofold and in interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) by more than threefold. Similar results in skeletal muscle and heart were obtained after 1 wk of cold exposure. Examination of dietary effects on NE turnover, comparing rats fed a sucrose-supplemented diet for 3 days with those fasted for 2 days, indicated that sympathetic activity in skeletal muscle was unresponsive to dietary intake. In heart and IBAT, on the other hand, NE turnover in sucrose-fed rats was twice that obtained in fasted animals. Taken together, the lesser effect of cold and the undetectable response to diet indicate that sympathetic outflow to skeletal muscle is regulated differently than that to heart or IBAT and imply that skeletal muscle is not a major site for sympathetically mediated thermogenic responses to cold exposure or to dietary alteration, such as fasting and sucrose feeding.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Trochanteric region is one of the most frequent site for pressure ulcer development. High-voltage electric injuries with neurovascular damage is an important reason of paraplegia. These patients have prolonged hospitalization period and develop cachexia by time. Grade 3-4 sores with thoracanter major of femur exposition generally need flap reconstruction. Musculocutaneous flaps are preferred to cover exposed bone and fill the dead space. Although loco regional flaps such as tensor fasia lata, gluteus Maximus muscle flap have been used for thoracanteric ulcers, these flaps have mandatory muscles for ambulation in the following rehabilitation period. Another disadvantage of these flaps are the possible donor site problems due to pressure loading. Thus, we aimed to used vastus lateralis- anterolateral thigh(VL-ALT) flap for decreasing donor-site morbidity and tension. Methods Between 2019 and 2021 we have operated 6 trochanteric pressure ulcers in 5 patients. All patients had history of electric injury related paraplegia. The mean age of the patients was 33 (24-50) The defect size were ranging between 5x4cm and 10x12 cm. Flap size were planned according to exact size of the defect. VL muscle were harvested according to the size of dead space. The donor site was closed primarily in 3 patients. Split thickness skin graft were needed in 2 patients. Patients were hospitalized in lateral decubitus or supine position during follow –up. Results Mean follow up time was 10 months (6-18). All flaps were survived. Hematoma development were seen in 1 patient in the donor site which were treated with bedside debridement. No recurrence was seen during follow-up period. No restriction or morbidity were encountered during ambulation. Conclusions VL-ALT musculocutaneous flap provides the required tissue for dead space filling and defect closing simultaneously. The advantages of this flap are; lower donor site morbidity, perfect match in terms of skin quality and bulk, protecting the major muscles such as gluteus maximus and tensor fascia lata. The technique needs knowledge of quadratus femoris anatomy which has a short learning curve.

Abstract:

We herein report a case of clear cell carcinoma arising from endometriosis in the groin in a 53-year-old woman. The findings of MRI and FDG/PET-CT indicated a malignant tumor, and surgical biopsy confirmed adenocarcinoma of the female genital tract. The tumor including a part of the abdominal rectus muscle and rectus sheath, subcutaneous fat, skin, and the right inguinal ligament was resected en bloc. The defect in the abdominal wall was reconstructed with a fascia lata tensor muscle skin flap. The tumor was composed of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising from extrapelvic endometriosis. The patient received chemotherapy with gemcitabine and carboplatin for 6 cycles and had no evidence of recurrence 7 months after the treatment. We herein described the diagnosis and surgical management of endometriosis-associated carcinoma in the groin.

Abstract:

Lactation in goats has been shown to modify in vivo insulin action. [Debras, E., J. Grizard, E. Aina, S. Tesseraud, C. Champredon, and M. Arnal. Am. J. Physiol. 256 (Endocrinol. Metab. 19): E295-E302, 1989]. To further elucidate the mechanism of insulin action, we studied insulin binding and insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity in solubilized and partially purified receptor preparations from liver and skeletal muscles (longissimus dorsi, tensor fascia lata, diaphragm, and masseter) from lactating and nonlactating goats. Lactation did not alter insulin receptors in the various skeletal muscles and had a minor influence on liver receptors (where only a 20% increase in receptor number was visible, P less than 0.05). Insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation and the kinase activity against polyglutamyltyrosine (4:1) were not significantly modified in skeletal muscle receptor preparations from lactating goats when compared with nonlactating animals. They tended to decrease in liver preparations, but not significantly. Thus the changes in insulin action in vivo during lactation in goats were not related to modifications in insulin kinase activity but were probably localized at a postreceptor level.

Abstract:

Electric burns are deep burns that by once-only or continuing stimulation of the nerves and striated muscles causes massive muscle contractions which can cause ruptures, ligamentous tears, fractures, and joint dislocations.High resistance of bone to the passage of electric current results in periosteal necrosis. Deep burns particularly electric burns when exposes structures valuable for important functions like joints, demands reconstructive options consisting robust viability and huge vascularity. The study was conducted in Department of plastic surgery and burn, Dhaka Medical College Hospital,Dhaka from June, 2011 to January, 2012. 18 patients were included in this series. Among them in ten patients gastrochnemius flap was applied, Lattissimus dorsi muscle flap was applied in 4 cases, Trapezius flap was applied in 2 cases and each of the other two patients were treated with Tensor fascia lata and Transverse Rectus Abdominis myocutaneous flap. Fifteen patients were adult and three patients were from paediatric age group. 88% of flaps were primarily used to cover exposed structures (bones and joints) and others were used to correct deformities. Complications include partial graft loss (3), joint stiffness(3), wound infection(1) and flap loss(1). Though these flaps are very commonly used in trauma reconstruction, their use in reconstruction in burn patients are included in this series.

Abstract:

By using ultrasonography, we measured the longitudinal movement distance of the deep fascia (LMDDF), change of the pennation angle (PA) and muscle thickness (MT) in both the tensor fasciae latae muscle (TFL) and the gluteus medius muscle (G-Med) during passive movement of the toes/ankle joints. 21 right lower limbs of 21 healthy males were evaluated in this study. We measured the LMDDF of the TFL and G-Med by measuring distance between the designated landmark on skin and the intersection of the major deep-fascia (D-fascia) and the fascial bundle. We also measured change of the PA and MT of both muscles. Additionally, we also measured the reliability of the measurement and the measurement error. The measurement was performed during three manual positions on the toes/ankle; manual holding of the toes and ankle joint in neutral, toes flexion and ankle plantar flexion/inversion position, toes extension and ankle extension/valgus position. The existence of muscle contraction of both the muscles during passive motion was monitored by active surface electrodes. This study confirmed mobility of the D-fascia in which the TFL’s D-fascia moves and change of muscle shape in the distal direction during no muscle contraction due to passive movement. This fact suggests the possibility that passive tension on fascia tissue of the ankle extends to the proximal part of the limb, i.e., to the D-fascia of the TFL.

Abstract:

Lower cross syndrome results from muscle strength imbalance in the lower segment. It also involves tightness of the iliopsoas, rectus femoris, fascia lata tensor, adductor group, gastrocnemius, and soleus. Pressure biofeedback device is used for the purpose of measuring and treating the transverse abdominis muscle. This study is needed because over time due to prolonged daily activities and lack of regular exercises in young people, this leads to muscle imbalance which leads to low back pain in this population. The goal of the study is to screen for lower cross syndrome in asymptomatic individual. To screen for lower cross syndrome in asymptomatic individual. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 300 persons will be included in the study, and the suitable evaluation method for lower cross syndrome will be used. Females had increased muscle tension and weakness, according to the findings. The iliopsoas muscle, in particular. The length of the spinal extensor muscle, the strength of the transverse abdominus, and the strength of the gluteus maximus muscle are all notable differences. Lower cross syndrome can also cause some postural problems in young people. Females were shown to be more likely than males to acquire lower cross syndrome in this study. According to this study, young people are more likely to acquire lower cross syndrome as a result of bad posture, prolonged sitting, and a variety of other variables. Females are more likely than males to acquire lower cross syndrome, according to this study.

Abstract:

Objective 1) Review our experience with the anterolateral thigh (ALT) free flap in skull base reconstruction. 2) Describe reconstructive techniques for skull base defects and dural coverage with simultaneous facial reanimation. Methods A retrospective review was performed for 25 consecutive patients with defects of the skull base who were reconstructed with the ALT free flap. Results Reconstructed sites consisted of 2 anterior, 7 lateral, and 16 posterior skull base defects. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) was administered to 32% and 36% of the patients, respectively. The overall complication rate was 36% (66% recipient site and 34% donor site). One patient developed a CSF leak and one a nasocutaneous fistula. RT was associated with a two-fold increase in wound complications relative to controls. There were no flap losses and no long-term donor site probleMS 3 nerve grafts using the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and 12 static slings for facial reanimation using the tensor fascia lata were performed simultaneously with free flap reconstruction from the same donor site. 4 gold eyelid weights, 2 lateral canthoplasties, and 3 direct browlifts were also performed simultaneously. Conclusions The ALT free flap provides reliable and versatile reconstruction of skull base defects. Primary advantages of this flap reside in the ability to harvest variable amounts of skin and vastus lateralis muscle along with nerve and fascial grafts from the same operative site, minimizing operative time and donor site morbidity. In our practice, the ALT flap represents a first-line option for composite skull base defects.

Abstract:

Oromandibular reconstruction resulting from resection of benign tumor, malignant cancer, osteomyelitic or osteoradionecrotic mandible remains a challenge for plastic surgeons today. At present, fibula osteocutaneous flap is the perhaps most commonly used technique for oromandibular reconstruction because of its potential for contouring, immediate dental implant placement, and favorable donor site morbidity. In this study, we review the history of oromandibular reconstruction, summarize the characteristics of different osteocutaneous flaps, offer surgical options of different osteocutaneous flaps, and provide reconstructive strategies for different locations of mandibular defects. Furthermore, we give a detailed description of various modifications in oromandibular reconstruction: (1) the myoosseous flap for lateral segmental defect repair may reduce donor site complication; (2) to improve the function of oral commissure in patients with obscure recipient vessels, we modify the fibula osteocutaneous flap with anterolateral thigh flap and combine the tensor fascia lata using one set of recipient vessel for composite oromandibular reconstruction; (3) to decrease the likelihood of neck infection and improve aesthetic result, we add the segmental soleus muscle to the fibula osteocutaneous flap to obliterate and augment submandibular dead space. Lastly, dental rehabilitation considerations associated with mandibular reconstruction have been given to help assist in surgical treatment planning.

Abstract:

Background: Trapezius transfer has shown promise to restore shoulder movements and has stood through the passage of time. We here in describe a modification of trapezius transfer technique and review the current literature available. Methods: The modified trapezius transfer in which the trapezius muscle is extended with folded tensor fascia lata graft and attached as distally possible to the deltoid insertion was done in twelve patients at tertiary health care centre in India. Post-operative splinting and staged physiotherapy were given. Results: Results were described in the form of improvement in degree of shoulder abduction and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score. Six months post-surgery there were improvement in shoulder abduction and DASH score with mean 116 degrees (10–180 degree) and 38 (23–58) respectively. One patient showed poor results due to poor compliance in post-operative period. There were no major complications observed. Conclusions: The modified technique of trapezius transfer described here is a feasible option with good biomechanical outcomes. The technique is simple and can be adopted easily by emerging brachial plexus surgeon as a technique for secondary reconstruction of shoulder joint.

Abstract:

ContextWeakness or decreased activation of the hip abductors and external rotators has been associated with lower extremity injury, especially in females. Resisted side stepping is commonly used to address hip weakness. Whereas multiple variations of this exercise are used clinically, few data exist regarding which variations to select.ObjectiveTo investigate differences in muscle-activation and movement patterns and determine kinematic and limb-specific differences between men and women during resisted side stepping with 3 resistive-band positions.DesignControlled laboratory study.SettingLaboratory.Patients or Other ParticipantsA total of 22 healthy adults (11 men, 11 women; age = 22.8 ± 3.0 years, height = 171.6 ± 10.7 cm, mass = 68.5 ± 11.8 kg).Intervention(s)Participants side stepped with the resistive band at 3 locations (knees, ankles, feet).Main Outcome Measure(s)We collected surface electromyography of the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and tensor fascia lata (TFL) for the moving and stance limbs during the concentric and eccentric phases. We also measured trunk inclination, hip and knee flexion, and hip-abduction excursion.ResultsHip-abductor activity was higher in women than in men (P ≤ .04). The pattern of TFL activity in the stance limb differed by sex. Women performed the exercise in greater forward trunk inclination (P = .009) and had greater hip excursion (P = .003). Gluteus maximus and medius activity increased when the band was moved from the knees to the ankles and from the ankles to the feet, whereas TFL activity increased only when the band was moved from the knees to the ankles. Findings were similar for both the stance and moving limbs, but the magnitudes of the changes differed.ConclusionsCompared with placing the band around the ankles, placing the band around the feet for resisted side stepping elicited more activity in the gluteal muscles without increasing TFL activity. This band placement is most appropriate when the therapeutic goal is to activate the muscles that resist hip adduction and internal rotation.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTAccidental radioisotope burns are rare. The major components of radiation injury are burns, interstitial pneumonitis, acute bone marrow suppression, acute renal failure and adult respiratory distress syndrome. Radiation burns, though localized in distribution, have systemic effects, and can be extremely difficult to heal, even after multiple surgeries. In a 25 year old male who sustained such trauma by accidental industrial exposure to Iridium192 the early presentation involved recurrent haematemesis, pancytopenia and bone marrow suppression. After three weeks he developed burns in contact areas in the left hand, left side of the chest, abdomen and right inguinal region. All except the inguinal wound healed spontaneously but the former became a non-healing ulcer. Pancytopenia and bone marrow depression followed. He was treated with morphine and NSAIDs, epidural buprinorphine and bupivicaine for pain relief, steroids, antibiotics followed by wound excision and reconstruction with tensor fascia lata(TFL) flap. Patient had breakdown of abdominal scar later and it was excised with 0.5 cm margins up to the underlying muscle and the wound was covered by a latissimis dorsi flap. Further scar break down and recurrent ulcers occurred at different sites including left wrist, left thumb and right heel in the next two years which needed multiple surgical interventions.

Abstract:

Distal arthrogryposis type 5D (DA5D), a rare autosomal recessive disorder, is caused by mutations in ECEL1. We describe two consanguineous families (three patients) with novel ECEL1 gene mutations detected by next-generation sequencing (NGS). A 12-year-old boy (patient 1) presented with birth asphyxia, motor developmental delay, multiple joint contractures, pes planus, kyphoscoliosis, undescended testis, hypophonic speech with a nasal twang, asymmetric ptosis, facial weakness, absent abductor pollicis brevis, bifacial, and distal lower limb weakness. Muscle MRI revealed asymmetric fatty infiltration of tensor fascia lata, hamstring, lateral compartment of the leg, and gastrocnemius. In addition, 17-year-old monozygotic twins (patients 2 and 3) presented with motor development delay, white hairlock, hypertelorism, tented upper lip, bulbous nose, tongue furrowing, small low set ears, multiple contractures, pes cavus, prominent hyperextensibility at the knee, hypotonia of lower limbs, wasting and weakness of all limbs (distal > proximal), areflexia, and high steppage gait. One had perinatal insult, seizures, mild intellectual disability, unconjugated eye movements, and primary optic atrophy. In the twins, MRI revealed extensive fatty infiltration of the gluteus maximus, quadriceps, hamstrings, and anterior and posterior compartment of the leg. Electrophysiology showed prominent motor axonopathy. NGS revealed rare homozygous missense variants c.602T > C (p.Met201Thr) in patient 1 and c.83C > T (p.Ala28Val) in patients 2 and 3, both localized in exon 2 of ECEL1 gene. Our three cases expand the clinical, imaging, and molecular spectrum of the ECEL1-mutation-related DA5D.

Abstract:

Aim: The utilization of free-tissue transfer secondary to traumatic lower extremity defects in the pediatric population is scarcely described. Factors include microsurgeon inexperience, inadequate center resources, and fear of historically described poor surgical outcomes. The aim of this study is to investigate more recent articles describing free-flap microsurgical reconstruction for these defects. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted through the online databases PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science, examining for articles with at least 20 subjects utilizing free-tissue transfer for soft-tissue defects of the pediatric (aged 18 and younger) lower extremity following traumatic etiology since 2005. Outcomes included flap failure, return to the operating room, and functional status, where available. Results: Seven studies were deemed appropriate for inclusion, with a total of 243 flaps included. Motor vehicle and motorcycle accidents were greater than 75% of total etiology. Most defects involved the foot or ankle (65.1%). In total, perforator flaps compromised the majority of flaps (54%), with the most common being the anterolateral thigh, the scapular/parascapular, and deep inferior epigastric flaps. Less common perforators included the groin flap, tensor fascia lata, radial forearm, lateral arm, and thoracodorsal perforator flap. Muscle-based flaps were less common (46%), with the latissimus dorsi and rectus muscle flaps composing the majority. The most commonly used recipient vessel was the anterior tibialis (49.5%) and posterior tibialis vessels (45.3%). Most studies performed reconstruction within 7-10 days of presentation. There was a cumulative 6.5% flap failure rate. Conclusion: Free tissue transfer for pediatric lower extremity trauma is an important tool that likely leads to powerful outcomes. Recent trends indicate increasing usage of perforator flaps. This study shows that based on existing data, free flap utilization for pediatric patients is an adequate modality for repair, and may warrant greater consideration moving forward.

Abstract:

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare sarcoma subtype. The most common tumor locations are the deep soft tissue of extremities or trunks. We report a rare case of recurrent LGFMS in the inguinal region involving the scrotum and both testicles. A 38-year-old male patient reported a history of multiple nodular lesions in the left inguinal region accompanied by local inflammation. The patient was submitted for local resection of the lesion at our institution, with histopathological diagnosis of LGFMS. He missed his follow-up, returning with a large bulge in the left inguinal region involving the scrotum with signs of tissue necrosis and local purulent discharge. Surgical exploration was performed and the patient underwent tumor resection in the left inguinal region and the entire scrotum, with bilateral orchiectomy, with the margins enlarged to the right inguinal region and proximal surface of the penis. Local reconstruction was performed with a left fascia lata tensor muscle flap and ipsilateral thigh coverage using partial skin graft. On microscopic examination, the tumor showed spindle cells arranged in bundles, with abundant collagen and myxoid stroma with interspersed prominent vessels. The immunohistochemical study carried out showed immunoreactivity with Ki67 (<5%), immunonegativity with desmin and S100, confirming the diagnosis of LGFMS. Postoperative recovery was good and no recurrence was seen after two years. The patient is in good health, realizing multidisciplinary outpatient follow-up and performing continuous testosterone replacement. Surgical resection with negative margins for localized disease remains the standard treatment for LGFMS.

Abstract:

Morel-Lavallée lesions (MLLs) are closed degloving injuries that occur between subcutaneous tissue and underlying fascia, creating a potential space that fills with hemolymphatic fluid. By definition, MLLs are located in the pre-fascial space and generally do not extend into muscle. An 83-year-old male presented with two mass lesions, sized 14 and 8 cm respectively in diameter, on the right lateral thigh. The lesions had been asymptomatically present for over 10 years but presented with recent inflammatory symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed two interconnected cystic masses under the subcutaneous fat layer, with an extension from the superior lesion into the tensor fasciae latae (TFL). Surgical exploration revealed a thick pseudocapsule filled with brown paste-like old hematoma and serosanguinous fluid. The interconnected upper lesion also had a pseudocapsule with sinus tract formation into an elongated fibrous cavity in the TFL. Serial debridement with removal of both capsules and most of the TFL supplemented by negative pressure wound therapy with continuous betadine instillation allowed delayed repair. This case demonstrates that intramuscular extension can occur in chronic MLL.

Abstract:

AbstractThe purpose of our research is to prove that elastic biomechanical characteristics of the temporalis muscle fascia are comparable to those of the fascia lata, which makes the temporalis muscle fascia adequate material for dural reconstruction in the region of the anterior cranial fossa. Fifteen fresh human cadavers, with age range from 33 to 83 years (median age: 64 years; mean age: 64.28 years), were included in the biomechanical study. Biomechanical stretching test with the comparison of elasticity among the tissues of the temporalis muscle fascia, the fascia lata, and the dura was performed. The samples were stretched up to the value of 6% of the total sample length and subsequently were further stretched to the maximum value of force. The value of extension at its elastic limit for the each sample was extrapolated from the force–extension curve and was 6.3% of the total sample length for the fascia lata (stress value of 14.61 MPa), 7.4% for the dura (stress value of 6.91 MPa), and 8% for the temporalis muscle fascia (stress value of 2.09 MPa). The dura and temporalis muscle fascia shared the same biomechanical behavior pattern up to the value of their elastic limit, just opposite to that of the fascia lata, which proved to be the stiffest among the three investigated tissues. There was a statistically significant difference in the extension of the samples at the value of the elastic limit for the fascia lata in comparison to the temporalis muscle fascia and the dura (p = 0.002; Kruskal–Wallis test). Beyond the value of elastic limit, the temporalis muscle fascia proved to be by far the most elastic tissue in comparison to the fascia lata and the dura. The value of extension at its maximum value of force for the each sample was extrapolated from the force–extension curve and was 9.9% of the sample's total length for the dura (stress value of 10.02 MPa), 11.2% for the fascia lata (stress value of 23.03 MPa), and 18.5% (stress value of 3.88 MPa) for the temporalis muscle fascia. There was a statistically significant difference in stress values at the maximum value of force between the dura and the temporalis muscle fascia (p = 0.001; Mann–Whitney U test) and between the dura and the fascia lata (p < 0.001; Mann–Whitney U test). Because of its elasticity and similarity in its mechanical behavior to the dura, the temporalis muscle fascia can be considered the most suitable tissue for dural reconstruction.

Abstract:

We have examined insulin binding, autophosphorylation, and tyrosine kinase activity in detergent-solubilized and wheat germ agglutinin-purified insulin receptor preparations from four rat muscles of different fiber composition (i.e., tensor fascia latae, soleus, vastus intermedius, and plantaris). Insulin binding activity was similar in three of the four muscles but lower in tensor fascia latae. No significant differences were noted in the affinity of insulin for its receptor from various muscle types. Insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity measured in the absence (basal) and presence of insulin (0.3-300 nM) was comparable in all muscle types (normalized to the amount of insulin bound). Insulin sensitivity, measured as the dose of insulin required for half-maximal activation of kinase activity, was also similar in all muscle types. Likewise, incubation of receptor preparations with [gamma-32P]ATP, Mn2+, and insulin (0.25-100 nM) resulted in a dose-dependent autophosphorylation of the beta-subunit (relative molecular weight approximately 95 kDa) with similar kinetics in all muscle types. In conclusion, these results show that the functional behavior of the insulin receptor autophosphorylation-kinase system (in vitro) is not changed by alterations in muscle fiber composition, indicating that differences in insulin sensitivity between different skeletal muscle types is probably not due to modulation of the insulin receptor phosphorylation system.

Abstract:

Objective: To determine the prevalence of myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) and the correlation between the number of MTrPs and pain and function in patients presenting knee pain osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: This was a secondary analysis of data from a cross-sectional study. The prevalence of MTrPs located in tensor fasciae latae, hip adductors, hamstrings, quadriceps, gastrocnemius, and popliteus muscles was studied in 114 patients (71 men and 43 women) with knee OA. Pain and functionality were assessed with a numerical pain rating scale (NPRS), the Western Ontario, McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, the Barthel Index, and the timed up and go test. Results: The prevalence of latent MTrPs was detected via palpation and was estimated to be 50%, 35%, 25%, 29%, 33%, and 12% for tensor fasciae latae, hip adductors, hamstrings, quadriceps, gastrocnemius, and popliteus muscles, respectively. The prevalence of active MTrPs was estimated to be 11%, 17%, 30%, 18%, 25%, and 17% for tensor fasciae latae, hip adductors, hamstrings, quadriceps, gastrocnemius, and popliteus muscles, respectively. Pain was measured with the NPRS scale and was poorly correlated with the prevalence of latent MTrPs (r = 0.2; p = 0.03) and active MTrPs (r = 0.23; p = 0.01) in the hamstrings. Disability was moderately correlated with the number of latent MTrPs in the tensor fasciae latae muscle (Barthel, r = 0.26; p = 0.01 and WOMAC, r = 0.19; p = 0.04). Conclusions: This secondary analysis found that the prevalence of the MTrPs varied from 11% to 50% in different muscles of patients with mild to moderate painful knee osteoarthritis. Pain was correlated poorly with the prevalence of latent and active MTrPs in the hamstring muscles, and disability correlated moderately with the number of latent MTrPs in tensor fasciae latae.

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology 7, no. 3 (August 19, 2022): 60. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/jfmk7030060.

Full text

Abstract:

Looped elastic bands around the thigh are commonly used during squats and result in increased hip activation. Due to the closed kinetic chain nature of the squat exercise, one may expect that placing the elastic band on distal segments, close to the floor contact, may not result in the same increase in hip muscle activation as that achieved with a looped band around the thigh. We analyzed the effects of band position (thigh, lower leg, and forefoot) and band stiffness on the myoelectric activity of the tensor fascia latae, gluteus medius, gluteus maximus, biceps femoris, vastus medialis, and vastus lateralis during squats in 35 healthy subjects (18 men and 17 women). The greatest myoelectric activity of hip muscles was observed when the stiffest band was positioned around the forefeet with an increase in 24% for the tensor fascia latae, 83% for the gluteus medius, and 68% for the gluteus maximus compared to free (without resistance band) squatting. Contrary to previous thinking, the use of elastic bands around the forefeet during squats can elicit increased myoelectric activity of hip muscles, with a magnitude often greater than when the band is placed around the thigh segments.

Abstract:

Introduction: Patients with non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) and movement control dysfunction demonstrate alternation in hip muscles flexibility and spinal movement patterns. Therapeutic modalities that augment hip muscles flexibility could help these patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of global postural reeducation (GPR) on pain and hip muscle flexibility in patients with NSLBP and movement control dysfunction. Materials and Methods: A total of 27 men with a mean age of 31.21±2.5147 years, height of 166.44±6.11 cm, and weight of 64.21±5.25 kg participated in this study. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to evaluate pain. The flexibility of hip muscles (rectus femoris, tensor fasciae latae, external rotators and hamstring) was measured using universal goniometer. All data were assessed at baseline and after the intervention. The Shapiro-Wilk test and paired t test were used for statistical analysis at significance level of P=0.05. Results: Our results revealed a decline in pain (P<0.004) and an increase in the flexibility of the hamstring muscles in the right (P<0.003) and left (P<0.003) legs. There were no statistically significant differences in the flexibility of rectus femoris muscle, external rotators, and tensor fasciae latae. Conclusion: The results suggest that GPR had a significant effect on the level of pain. Further, it affected the flexibility of hamstring muscles in legs. Using GPR is recommended for pain relief and improving the flexibility of hamstring muscles in patients with NSLBP.
