    Abstract An aspiration biopsy is a commonly performed procedure for diagnostic sampling, particularly for sampling of cystic soft tissue lesions and bone marrow. The method is also useful for diagnostic sampling of bone lesions, particularly cystic and lytic osseous lesions where traditional methods of core biopsy may yield little to no material. Performing a successful aspiration biopsy involves aspiration of the lesion's contents and curettage of the walls. This requires maintaining a constant negative pressure on the syringe, which can be challenging with bone biopsies, as it requires one hand to maintain significant pressure on the plunger while the other hand manipulates the needle within the lesion. We describe a novel technique for performing aspiration biopsies of these lesions which allows maintenance of constant negative pressure on the syringe and frees up both the proceduralist's hands for better control of the needle.

    Abstract Tuberculosis (TB), an infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, accounts for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. While primary TB predominantly involves the respiratory system, approximately 10-19% patients have musculoskeletal involvement. We present a case of a 54-year-old year gentleman with insidious onset of anterior knee pain. Imaging demonstrated a soft tissue lesion involving the patellar tendon and eroding the inferior pole of the patella. The imaging features, particularly ultrasound, resembled those that are typically seen with gout. Ultrasound guided biopsy revealed this to be TB of the patella. The patient was successfully treated with antitubercular therapy. Musculoskeletal TB, while usually not a primary form of TB, is an important consideration particularly in patients with risk factors for the disease. Its imaging features can mimic other forms of arthropathy such as gout. Moreover, while the knee is a relatively common site for TB infection, isolated involvement of the patella and patellar tendon is extremely rare. The case highlights the possibility of rare musculoskeletal manifestation of TB as a well as a potential imaging pitfall of TB infection mimicking gout, which is an important consideration in clinical practice.

    Abstract Background: Mini 'C'-arm machine is an advanced medical imaging device used primarily for intraoperative imaging during surgical, orthopaedic and emergency care procedures. Since the technology is based on ionising radiation, safe usage of Mini 'C'-arm machine is mandatory to protect patients and operating personnel.
    Objective: The main objective is to describe the various components related to patients, operator and equipment to ensure safe usage of Mini 'C'-arm machine. A comprehensive search strategy using the PEO (Population, Exposure, Outcome) framework was conducted using Embase, PubMed, Google Scholar and ResearchGate databases to identify suitable literature. The keywords used for the search included 'Fluoroscopy', 'Ionising Radiation' and 'surgical safety'.
    Key findings: Safe usage of Mini 'C'-arm equipment involves components of operator training, operator safety, patient safety, radiation dose, operating room logistics, handling of images and auditing of Mini 'C'-arm use.
    Conclusion: Mini 'C'-arm provides an invaluable, portable imaging tool in a spectrum of general surgical and orthopaedic interventional procedures. However, safe usage of Mini 'C'-arm machine requires a multifaceted approach including operator responsibility and safety, patient protection, equipment maintenance, radiation dose awareness, documentation and sound reporting mechanisms.

    Abstract Background: Hip transposition surgery after surgical resection of large pelvic tumours is a well-established alternate to endoprosthetic reconstruction. The major goals of surgery are to ensure adequate resection margins with limb salvation, albeit with acceptable levels of morbidity. While surveillance is aimed at diagnosing local recurrence or distant metastasis primarily, other complications may occasionally be seen.The aim of this study was to assess incidence of avascular necrosis (AVN) in the preserved native femoral heads after hip transposition surgery for periacetabular malignancies, also known as hanging hip surgery.
    Patients and methods: Patient records and follow-up imaging of 22 patients who had undergone hanging hip surgery from 1999 to 2020 were retrospectively analysed to assess for any probable causes of AVN.
    Results: Of the 22 patients, 5 (22.7%) had developed AVN on follow-up with a mean time of onset of about 10.5 months from surgery (5 months-2 years). A review of the patient demographics, surgical notes, preoperative management did not offer any clues as to the cause of AVN in these patients. Osteopenia was the most common radiological finding (59%) in most patients, but this also did not herald AVN onset.
    Conclusions: The theory that loss of major vascular supply to the femoral head from capsular disruption during hip transposition surgery would lead to AVN in most patients did not hold true as AVN occurred in a small number of patients.

    Abstract Malignant melanoma is a common and often aggressive neoplasm of the skin arising from melanocytes. Metastatic melanoma is known for its diverse clinical manifestations, and can present with atypical features prior to diagnosis of the primary lesion, which can pose a diagnostic challenge. We report a rare case of metastatic melanoma in a 67 year-old male who presented with a painless, enlarging mass in the right axilla over a 4 week period. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans revealed a well-defined solitary, cystic appearing lesion in the right axilla with a distinct fluid-fluid level. An ultrasound guided biopsy of the lesion diagnosed a metastatic melanoma. While haemorrhagic distant metastases are a well-recognised complication of malignant melanoma, particularly in the brain and lung, soft tissue metastases presenting with fluid-fluid levels is not well described in the literature. The case highlights the importance of considering the differential of melanoma metastasis when encountered with such a lesion and importance of ultrasound guided biopsy for histopathological confirmation, as the imaging features can mimic that of a haemorrhagic soft tissue sarcoma, the management of which differs substantially from that of melanoma.

    Abstract There are myriad causes for upper thoracic and interscapular pain which include pathologies involving the thoracic spine, costovertebral joints, facet joints and muscles (rhomboids and levator scapulae). Dorsal scapular nerve entrapment and the resulting neuropathy is a rare case of upper thoracic and medial scapular pain. The symptoms of dorsal scapular nerve entrapment neuropathy can be similar to other pathologies mentioned above. We report a rare case of dorsal scapular nerve entrapment managed successfully by ultrasound-guided hydrodissection, and describe the technique for the same. Awareness of this rare entity is advised while evaluating upper thoracic and interscapular pain.
