    Abstract Background: Total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) provides satisfactory pain relief and restores elbow range of motion and function in patients with end-stage arthritis. Due to advances in implant design and surgical techniques, the indications for surgery have expanded to include various other conditions affecting the elbow. The previous studies and systematic reviews reported satisfactory mid-term and long-term clinical outcomes after TEA with relatively stable complication and revision rates. However, there is lack of information in the literature about the results of TEA in Indian patients.
    Methods: Two reviewers performed a comprehensive literature search using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines in three online databases-Pubmed/MEDLINE, Google scholar and the Cochrane database for clinical trials. Only original studies published in the English literature reporting outcomes of primary TEA in Indian patients were included for analysis. Using pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, articles were screened and the relevant articles identified. Data were extracted with the primary objective to assess pain relief and functional outcome after TEA in Indian patients, and secondary objective to identify indications for surgery, complication rates and incidence of implant removals.
    Results: A total of 212 TEAs (210 patients) from ten articles were included in this systematic review. All the TEAs were done using Baksi's semi-constrained sloppy-hinged elbow prosthesis. The most common indication of TEA was post-traumatic sequelae (124 elbows, 58.5%), followed by comminuted intra-articular fracture distal humerus (53 elbows, 25%). At a weighted mean follow-up of 7.5 years, 80.7% cases had complete pain relief. The weighted mean flexion, extension restriction, supination and pronation were 122.6°, 20.8°, 57.3°, and 48.6°; respectively. The weighted mean Mayo Elbow Performance Score was 92.1 points with excellent outcome. Overall, a total of 68 complications were reported (32%) and the implants needed to be removed in 14 elbows (6.6%) including two revisions.
    Conclusions: This systematic review found that the functional outcome and pain relief obtained with TEA using Baksi's sloppy-hinged prosthesis in Indian patients were satisfactory overall. The complication rates and implant removal rates were lower than those reported with other patient populations.

    Abstract Introduction: Osteomyelitis is one of the most common infectious complications in people with sickle cell disease (SCD). The most common infecting organisms in SCD are the Salmonella species and Staphylococcus aureus; Streptococcus pneumoniae and Bacteroides species have also been described, however, osteomyelitis attributable to infection with hypervirulent Klebsiella spp. is a rare entity. We describe our experience with a rare presentation of multifocal bilateral symmetrical ulna and fibula osteomyelitis in a patient with SCD due to Klebsiella bacteremia with 1-year follow-up.
    Case report: A 25-year-old female known SCD since childhood who underwent treatment for dengue at our hospital had her blood cultures positive for Klebsiella, following which she was treated with appropriate antibiotics. Two weeks following the asymptomatic period patient presented with complaints of pain over the bilateral forearm and legs. The patient was evaluated for laboratory parameters and plain radiograph of the bilateral forearm and bilateral legs. The radiological features were suggestive of osteomyelitis, showing "Bilaterally symmetrical involvement." Laboratory parameters erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were found raised. The patient was planned for biopsy and debridement of the lesion from the right ulna. The culture from the biopsy showed growth of Klebsiella sp. and was sensitive to co-trimoxazole. The patient was started on co-trimoxazole for 6 weeks and had a significant clinical improvement in the form of subsidence of pain, normalization of the blood counts along with the acute phase reactants (ESR, CRP).
    Conclusion: Our case contributes to the growing awareness of the unusual manifestations of this serious disease and the rarity of bilateral symmetrical involvement. Our case highlights the importance of clinician awareness, manifestations, and management of Klebsiella sp. hypervirulent strains.

    Abstract Introduction: The recent surge in joint replacement surgeries in India, particularly total knee and hip replacements, is notable. The majority of patients undergoing these procedures suffered from knee osteoarthritis or femoral head avascular necrosis. However, this increase in joint replacements has also led to a rise in periprosthetic joint infections (PJI), a severe and costly complication. PJI is responsible for 25% of total knee arthroplasty failures and 15% of total hip arthroplasty failures. Various risk factors, such as diabetes, fractures, and arthritis, are associated with PJI development. Bacterial infections, notably Staphylococcus species, are the primary cause of PJI, but rare fungal infections are often caused by Candida and Aspergillus. There is a lack of clinical trials and limited knowledge about the prevalence and treatment of fungal PJIs.
    Case report: This report presents a unique case of delayed PJI caused by Candida albicans in an otherwise healthy patient.
    Conclusion: This case report emphasizes the need for further research and standardized treatment guidelines. Treatment typically involves a two-stage revision with extended antifungal therapy. The optimal duration of antifungal treatment remains uncertain.

    Abstract Introduction: ?Introduction: Periosteal chondromas are rare, slow-growing, benign cartilaginous tumors arising from the cortical surface of the bone, beneath the periosteal membrane. Typically affect young males, the most common site being the proximal humerus. There have been no reported cases of periosteal chondroma of the talus in the literature.
    Case report: A 9-year-old Indian boy presented with a 1.5-year history of atraumatic right ankle pain and swelling, exacerbated by walking, with limited dorsiflexion. Physical examination revealed a firm, painless swelling on the anterior ankle's talar region, accompanied by equinus deformity. Radiography displayed osseous masses on the anterior talus. Magnetic resonance imaging indicated well-defined osseous growths originating from the talus's anterior aspect, likely osteochondromas, with adjacent osseous fragments in the tibiotalar joint, suggestive of loose bodies, supporting a clinical diagnosis of synovial chondromatosis. Surgical excision revealed whitish, hard, irregular tissue, confirmed as periosteal chondroma on histopathology. After 6 months, the patient is pain-free with unrestricted movement and no clinical or radiological signs of recurrence.
    Conclusion: This case report presents a unique instance of previously unreported talus periosteal chondroma, adding novelty to medical literature. It details the diagnostic challenges and its intricacies. It provides a comprehensive overview of clinical presentation, imaging and histopathological findings, differentials and provisional diagnosis, surgical approach, and post-operative outcomes. The successful surgical management, along with the specific details of the surgical procedure (anteromedial approach, excision, and curettage), adds practical insights for orthopedic surgeons and contributes to the existing knowledge on treatment strategies for talus periosteal chondroma. This report will serve as an excellent educational resource.

    Abstract Introduction: An aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is an unusual, non-cancerous bone lesion that is characterized by its lytic (causing bone loss), hemorrhagic, and expanding nature. ABCs are relatively rare, making up only 1% of all bone tumors. These cysts are typically found in long bones and the spine but are very rarely seen in the metatarsal bones, making such occurrences quite uncommon.
    Case report: In this case report, we present a case of ABC of the 3rd metatarsal in a 26-year-old female with complaints of long-standing foot pain and gradually increasing swelling of the dorsum of the foot. After radiological evaluation, she had undergone histopathological evaluation. An en bloc resection of the metatarsal along with the tumor mass was performed and the gap was replaced with an ipsilateral fibular strut graft. Histopathological examination of the resected tissue was suggestive of ABC without any evidence of malignancy. At the end of 1 year of follow-up, she is now completely pain free with intact rom of foot and ankle.
    Conclusion: The present study aims to describe a case of ABC of the metatarsal, a condition that not only poses a diagnostic dilemma but also constitutes a challenge in the management of lesion.

    Abstract A 45-year-old woman complained of left wrist pain and swelling for two years accompanied by limited dorsiflexion. Plain X-rays revealed an abnormal bony mass in the carpal bones, further evaluated using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Upon confirmation of the benign nature surgical excisional biopsy of the lesion, the histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP). The patient has remained pain-free and actively involved in her routine for the past two years. BPOP, affecting the carpal bones of the hand, are exceptionally rare occurrence. Attentive preoperative evaluation helps in diagnosis and to initiate measures to avoid recurrence.

    Abstract Introduction: Introduction: Pellegrini-Stieda syndrome, characterized by medial collateral ligament (MCL) calcification or ossification, often follows a history of trauma. While rare, its distinct radiographic features pose diagnostic challenges. Conservative treatments are effective for many, but surgical intervention is necessary when they fail.
    Case report: A 31-year-old male with knee pain and stiffness, an inability to extend his knee, and a fixed flexion deformity. Radiological examinations confirmed heterotopic ossification along the MCL, indicating post-traumatic Pellegrini-Stieda syndrome. Despite 3 months of conservative treatment, the patient's pain persisted, leading to surgical excision. The surgical approach involved diagnostic arthroscopy, revealing arthritic changes and adhesions. Arthroscopic adhesiolysis and open excision of the ossified mass significantly improved the patient's range of motion. Histopathological examination confirmed heterotopic bone formation. Follow-up appointments at 1, 3, and 6 months showed a pain-free and mobile knee joint, with the Pellegrini-Stieda lesion disappearing from radiographs.
    Conclusion: This case underscores the effectiveness of surgical intervention for refractory Pellegrini-Stieda syndrome, offering hope for improved patient outcomes and highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and tailored treatment in managing this rare condition.

    Abstract Introduction: Coracoid fracture occurs with shoulder instability due to direct humeral head impaction. Incidence coracoid fracture with shoulder dislocation is rare amounts to 0.8-2%. We encountered clinical challenge of unique combination of both shoulder instability and coracoid fracture. This technical note will describe the treatment of the same.
    Case report: A 23-year-old male suffering from recurrent shoulder dislocation sustained coracoid fracture. Further evaluation showed glenoid defect of 25%. Magnetic resonance study showed on track lesion with Hill-Sach lesion of 9 mm, labral defect anteriorly with no associated rotator cuff tear. The patient was managed with open Latarjet procedure with fracture coracoid fragment with conjoint tendon as graft.
    Conclusion: Our purpose of reporting this technical note is to provide an option of dealing both instability and coracoid fracture in single sitting and usage of coracoid fractured fragment as an excellent graft of choice in acute presentation. However, certain limitations such as adequacy of graft in size and shape do exist operating surgeon which must be aware of the same.

    Abstract We describe the case of a 20-year-old man who presented with a bony swelling over the medial proximal tibia that caused pain along the pes anserinus tendons, and a history of multiple asymptomatic bony swellings. Wide extraperiosteal resection of the swelling relieved the symptoms with a good outcome within a year. This report describes the pictorial pathoanatomy of a relatively rare association of pes anserinus syndrome caused by osteochondroma in an adult patient. Proximal tibial osteochondromas can also present as pes anserinus syndrome in adult patients with diaphyseal aclasis. Large swellings require wide excision to relieve the stretching pain of pes tendons.
