Through systematic analysis, convalescent plasma was found to yield some efficacy on severe COVID-19 and had almost no obvious adverse reactions.

Convalescent plasma therapy seems to yield some efficacy among patients with severe COVID-19 and almost no obvious adverse reactions were found. However, at present, the clinical evidence is insufficient, and there is an urgent need for support from high-quality clinical trial data.

Multifocal osteosarcoma (MFOS) is characterized by multicentricity of osseous osteosarcomas, either synchronous or metachronous, without visceral involvement. They account for about 1.5% of all osteosarcomas. Most synchronous MFOS has one dominant lesion with one to four and very rarely five or more secondary lesions. The distal femur followed by the proximal tibia is the most common site of dominant lesions. Its prognosis remains extremely poor even with combined chemotherapy and surgery.

We describe a rare case of MFOS in a 10-year-old boy who presented with a short history of severe aching pain in the right lower limb following a trivial fall. Initial workup and relevant investigations revealed a synchronous multicentric osteosarcoma with extensive involvement of appendicular and axial skeletal system. The dominant lesion was at the lower end of the right femur with multiple secondary lesions in the right tibia, left femur, bilateral humeri, pelvis, cervical and dorsolumbar spine, ribs, and sternum. The patient received one cycle of doxorubicin and cisplatin-based chemotherapy but unfortunately succumbed to progressive disease, a month after initiation of chemotherapy.

MFOS is a very rare presentation of osseous osteosarcoma. The non-specific clinical manifestation, despite the presence of generalized skeletal involvement, presents a diagnostic difficulty for both the clinician and the radiologist. Only biopsy and histopathological examination can confirm the diagnosis of this highly malignant disease and help in proper management.

Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is common manifestation of a degenerative disease involving tensile failure of the annulus to contain the gel like nuclear portion of the disc. Lumbar herniated discs can often cause muscle weakness, reduced motor function, and change in walking capacity and gait pattern.

We present the case of an 18-year-old obese hypertensive male, with multiple level lumbar disc herniation, with a neurological deficit and failed conservative treatment. The patient was successfully operated by minimal invasive endoscopy approach and had a marked improvement in the neurological status post-surgery. Post-surgery, his neck regained normal posture, with no back or leg pain. At present, he is walking with a normal gait pattern after a 2-year follow-up.

Here, we describe a unique gait abnormality in a patient with adolescent LDH. Transforaminal endoscopic spine surgery had good functional outcomes with minimal morbidity.

Chronic posterior dislocation is a very rare injury. Various methods have been described for its treatment. This report describes a rare case of post-traumatic chronic posterior dislocation of the shoulder. Posterior bone block procedure performed through a limited posterior deltoid splitting approach was used with good surgical outcomes. The bone block procedure for chronic posterior dislocation is rarely described in the literature.

A 30-year-old male presented with complaints of pain on movement of the left shoulder and inability to lift the arm overhead for the past 5 months, following a fall from a moving train on his left shoulder. He had been treated conservatively with no improvement in symptoms. On clinical examination, there was a loss of deltoid contour with painful and restricted abduction and external rotation. The shoulder joint could be reduced by bringing the arm in 90o of abduction in the scapular plane. The anteroposterior radiograph showed a positive light bulb sign and a malunited fracon. The limited deltoid splitting approach is a safe approach with excellent exposure of posterior glenoid rim. Posterior bone block procedure is a viable reconstructive option in treating cases of chronic posterior dislocation.

The following report describes a rare case of giant cell tumor (GCT) of the bone that presented in the distal phalanx of the thumb. GCT of the bone is a relatively rare, and typically benign condition that presents most frequently in the metaphysis of long bones in women age 30-50 years old. There are only three other instances in the literature describing GCT of the bone presenting in the distal phalanx of the thumb. Although rare, delayed or missed diagnosis can be very debilitating to the patient.

A 28-year-old male laborer who is right hand dominant and works with his hands for a living presented to the emergency department (ED) with swelling and pain at the distal aspect of his left thumb with no known injury. Irinotecan chemical structure The patient was seen 4 weeks previously and was treated for cellulitis of the hand with antibiotics. At that time, no radiographs were taken. Despite this treatment, the patient reported increased swelling and pain over the next 2 weeks. He then sought treatment in the ED where a hand surgeon want diagnosis to consider in patients presenting similarly. The patient ultimately received adequate treatment, but the delay in diagnosis in combination with the locally aggressive nature of this tumor could have led to extensive surgical intervention with impairment in hand function. As a laborer whose income relies on daily use of his hands a delayed diagnosis; in this case could have had a catastrophic impact.
