    Abstract Nonuremic calciphylaxis is a rare condition presenting with peripheral ischemic ulcerations. Calciphylaxis is the deposition of calcium and phosphate into arteriolar walls caused by exceeding their solubility range in the blood. It is most commonly seen in patients with end-stage renal disease; however, nonuremic calciphylaxis occurs in patients with normal or mildly impaired renal function. Risk factors for nonuremic calciphylaxis include Coumadin therapy, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. Histopathologic examination of deep skin biopsy containing subcutaneous adipose tissue reveals medial calcification of dermal and subcutaneous arterioles. This diagnosis must be managed locally with wound care and systemically by control of blood calcium solubility. Avoidance of infection is critical to survival. Here we report a case of calciphylaxis in a patient with normal renal function and serum levels of calcium and phosphorus who presented with gangrene of the extremities. Increased awareness of this debilitating disease will lead to earlier diagnosis, proper treatment and improved patient outcomes.

    Abstract Nonunion rate of first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP) joint arthrodesis is reportedly less than 6%, regardless of fixation type. Robust modern plating constructs aim to decrease incidence of nonunion while also allowing early postoperative weight-bearing. Quicker transition to weight-bearing postoperatively increases patient adherence, decreases adjacent joint stiffness, and reduces risk of deep vein thrombosis in the postoperative period. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect tibial sesamoid fixation has on first MTP joint arthrodesis.

    Abstract Direct repair of deep deltoid ruptures after traumatic ankle fracture is not commonly performed. Previous studies overlook the contributions of the medial deltoid to overall ankle stability and long-term patient satisfaction. Historically, deep deltoid injuries have been addressed indirectly through syndesmotic ligament repair. This technique fails to restore, however, the anatomic function of the primary medial stabilizing structure. The oversight of direct deltoid repair may be one contributing factor to the less than optimal outcomes after ankle fractures with syndesmotic injuries. This article reports a positive response with direct deep deltoid repair, at average 5-year follow-up, with 93% positive return to normal function.

    Abstract The majority of orthopaedic venous thromboembolism (VTE) literature involves major orthopaedic surgery, which has distinct differences in comparison with foot and ankle surgery. Despite the current evidence-based medicine advocating against routine prophylaxis, confusion remains around who should be prophylaxed and with what modality. Clearly, larger prospective studies are needed to determine those individuals who require prophylaxis for the prevention of venous thromboembolic events following foot and ankle surgery.

    Abstract Despite decades of research, the induction and maintenance of long-term allograft tolerance without immunosuppression remains an elusive goal in the field of solid organ and cell transplantation. Immunosuppressive medications frequently prevent or minimize acute cellular rejection but have failed to halt antidonor antibody production and chronic organ rejection. Past efforts aimed at promoting lasting allograft tolerance have focused primarily on peripheral T-cell depletion, augmentation of regulatory T cells, or induction via simultaneous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and facilitation of donor chimerism. So far, none of these methods have led to consistently safe, feasible and long lasting donor organ acceptance. Over the course of the past 4 decades, the study of a unique population of antigen-presenting cells known as dendritic cells has shown promise for breaking new ground in achieving indefinite allograft survival without immunosuppression and its associated adverse effects. In this review, we discuss the discovery and early investigations of dendritic cells and chronicle some of the key studies demonstrating their role in transplantation, particularly in indirect allorecognition, the immunologic pathway thought to drive chronic rejection and perhaps tolerance induction.
