Hydatid disease at the proximal end of the clavicle.

We report a case of hydatid disease at the proximal end of the clavicle of a 47-year-old woman. In an open biopsy, laminated layers, characteristic of Echinococcus multilocularis larvae, were revealed by periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining. A marked foreign-body reaction was observed in the pathological findings. The patient was definitely diagnosed as having osseous hydatid disease. We performed resection of the infected part of the clavicle, and after the operation, she has been cured under medication with albendazole for 9 years, with no finding of recurrence in the clavicle.

Fixation with poly-L-lactic acid screws in hip osteotomy: 68 hips followed for 18-46 months.

This study evaluated 68 consecutive hip osteotomies in 61 patients using absorbable poly-L-lactic acid screws for fixation. 47 hips underwent a rotational acetabular osteotomy, 17 hips Chiari's pelvic osteotomy, and 4 hips transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy. Cortical screws were used to transfix the osteotomized acetabulum, and cancellous screws to reattach the intraoperatively osteotomized greater trochanter. The average age at surgery was 35 (12-49) years. The mean duration of follow-up was 32 (18-46) months. All the osteotomized acetabulums united well, but 4 of 54 trochanteric osteotomies failed to unite.
