PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The study aimed to draw up a diagnosis and treatment guidelines for the management of the most common compression fractures of the thoracolumbar spine in children. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between 2015 and 2017, pediatric patients with a thoracolumbar injury aged 0-12 years were followed up in the University Hospital in Motol and the Thomayer University Hospital. The age and gender of the patient, injury etiology, fracture morphology, number of injured vertebrae, functional outcome (VAS and ODI modified for children), and complications were assessed. An X-ray was performed in all patients, in indicated cases also an MRI scan was done, and in more severe cases a CT scan was obtained as well. RESULTS The average vertebral body kyphosis in patients with one injured vertebra was 7.3° (range 1.1°-12.5°). The average vertebral body kyphosis in patients with two injured vertebrae was 5.5° (range 2.1°-12.2°). The average vertebral body kyphosis in patients with more than two injured vertebrae was 3.8° (range 0.2°-11.5°). All patients were treated conservatively in line with the proposed protocol. No complications were observed, no deterioration of the kyphotic shape of the vertebral body was reported, no instability occurred, and no surgical intervention had to be considered. DISCUSSION Pediatric spine injuries are in most cases treated conservatively. Surgical treatment is opted for in 7.5-18% of cases, in dependence on the evaluated group of patients, age of the patients and philosophy of the department concerned. In our group, all patients were treated conservatively. CONCLUSIONS 1. To diagnose F0 fractures, two unenhanced orthogonal view X-rays are indicated, whereas MRI examination is not routinely performed. In F1 fractures, an X-ray is indicated, and an MRI scan is considered based on the age and extent of injury. In F2 and F3 fractures, an X-ray is indicated and subsequently the diagnosis is confirmed by MRI, in F3 fractures also a CT scan is performed. 2. In young children (under 6 years of age), in whom an MRI procedure would require general anaesthesia, MRI is not routinely performed. 3. In F0 fractures, crutches or a brace are not indicated. In F1 fractures, verticalization using crutches or a brace is considered in dependence on the patient's age and extent of injury. In F2 fractures, verticalization using crutches or a brace is indicated. 4. In F3 fractures, surgical treatment is considered, followed by verticalization using crutches or a brace. In case of conservative treatment, the same procedures as in F2 fractures are applied. 5. Long-term bed rest is contraindicated. 6. Duration of spinal load reduction (restriction of sports activities, or verticalization using crutches or a brace) in F1 injuries is 3-6 weeks based on the age of the patient, it increases with the age, with the minimum being 3 weeks. 7. Duration of spinal load reduction (verticalization using crutches or a brace) in F2 and F3 injuries is 6-12 weeks based on the age of the patient, it increases with the age, with the minimum being 6 weeks. Key words: pediatric spine injury, thoracolumbar compression fractures, children trauma treatment.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Our study aimed to assess the mid-term outcomes and complications with the ICON hip resurfacing system and to carry out a detailed analysis of pitfalls and risks associated with pairing the bearing surfaces of metal-on-metal hip implants. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 52 hip joints were assessed in 43 patients who received the ICON hip resurfacing system at our department between 2009 and 2013. The cohort included 34 men and 9 women. Their age at the time of primary surgery ranged from 34 to 67 years, with the mean age of 51.8 years. The mean follow-up was 7.6 years. The evaluation focused on the position and osseointegration of both components, bone remodelling around the implant, and signs of potential aseptic loosening. The functional status of the hip was assessed by Harris Hip Score. RESULTS The primary stability of both components was always good, there were no femoral neck fractures reported in our cohort. All the acetabular components were stable, showing appropriate osseointegration, with no radiolucent zones or signs of osteolysis around them. There was not a single case of the femoral component stem being in a biomechanically disadvantageous varus position. In zone I and III according to Beaulé, cancellous bone osteolysis developed in two patients. The narrowing of the femoral neck below the end of the femoral component, compared to postoperative X-rays, achieved the mean value of 1.3% according to Grammatopolouse. The HHS increased from 64 to 95.5 points. An excellent outcome was observed in 48 joints, whereas the outcome of the remaining 4 joints was very good. The mean survival rate of the resurfacing hip implant calculated using the Kaplan-Meier analysis achieved 100%. The cobalt and chromium levels in the blood of patients did not exceed the reference physiological value. DISCUSSION The resurfacing system enables to preserve the bone tissue of the metaphysis and a part of the femoral head. The reduced mechanical endurance of the peripheral part of femoral components smaller in size caused by implant malposition resulted in fatal consequences in the ASR system. Greater range of motion conditioned by the design of the resurfacing system led to a mechanical wear, with a significant increase in the concentration of metal particles in the effective joint space. The elevated levels of cobalt and chromium ions in some patients induced delayed-type hypersensitivity with subsequent development of aseptic lymphocyte-dominated vasculitis associated lesions presented as peri-acetabular changes (pseudotumors to osteolysis) with subsequent failure of implant fixation. We have not observed this complication in the ICON system as yet. In patients suffering from hip pain after the resurfacing hip arthroplasty and simultaneous high chromium and cobalt blood levels, pelvic CT/MRI is indicated with reduction of artefacts around the metal material. Surgical treatment of soft tissue affections, bone defects and reimplantation using conventional or revisioncementless components is a possible treatment option. CONCLUSIONS The ideal patient indicated for hip resurfacing is a physically active man under 60 years of age (with a femoral head size of 54-60 mm), with primary or secondary osteoarthritis, no joint deformity, with a good quality bone tissue in the femoral neck and head region. As for the functional performance, the resurfacing system allows the patients a large range of motion with very good joint stability immediately after surgery. Despite that, the metal-on-metal tribological pairing must be approached with caution. The risk of developing lesions associated with ALVAL is unpredictable. In our cohort of patients with ICON hip resurfacing system, mostly excellent outcomes with minimum complications were reported provided the indication criteria and the correct surgical procedure had been complied with. Key words: hip resurfacing system, metal articulating surfaces, adverse reaction to metal particles, aseptic lymphocytedominated vasculitis associated lesions, pseudotumor.

PURPOSE: Treatment outcomes of conservative and surgical treatment of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) have been shown to be conditioned by a number of factors that may vary across different populations. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate factors affecting radiographically assessed treatment outcomes in patients treated surgically or conservatively for LCPD at Faculty Hospital Motol, Prague, Czech Republic, between the years 2006 and 2019. METHODS: Data of forty-seven children comprising 52 hips were analysed. Treatment outcomes were evaluated according to Stulberg classification. Predictors included the initial stage of fragmentation of the hip joint according to Herring classification, type of treatment (conservative or surgical), age at the time of diagnosis and sex. RESULTS: Older age and severity of LCPD according to Herring classification but not the type of treatment were the strongest factors determining treatment outcomes. Treatment outcomes were comparable in patients treated conservatively or surgically both across the whole cohort of patients and a group of young children < six years of age. CONCLUSIONS: Results strengthen the roles of severity of the LCPD at onset of treatment and age of the patient in predicting treatment outcomes in patients with LCPD. Conservative and surgical treatments appear to yield similar treatment outcomes irrespective of age of patients.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation and its surgical treatment still raises a number of questions that remain to be answered. In some types of dislocations, Rockwood type III in particular, the indication for surgical treatment as such is relative. There are numerous techniques and implants available for the reconstruction of AC joint. In our research we focused on the necessity of coracoclavicular (CC) joint reconstruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this paper, a cohort of 56 patients with Rockwood type III AC joint injury who underwent surgical treatment at our department in 2010-2016 period was retrospectively evaluated. The patients were treated with open reduction with AC joint stabilisation using hook plate or tension band. The patients were divided into 2 groups, namely group 1 with CC ligament reconstruction and group 2 without CC ligament reconstruction. The assessment was done at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after surgery. The clinical outcomes were assessed based on the absolute Constant score (CS) and coracoclavicular distance (CCD) on the X-ray. Subsequently, the outcomes were statistically processed and compared using the Student s ttest. RESULTS The least invasive surgical intervention, as to the length of incision, was the reconstruction using the hook plate without CC ligament suture, whereas the longest incision was performed in tension band with CC ligament suture. In the CC ligament suture group, the mean operative time was 10 minutes longer. When evaluating the CS of the compared groups with and without CC ligament reconstruction, no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05) was found between the two groups. Similarly, the CCD values at 2-year follow-up did not show any statistically significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The available outcomes suggest that the surgical methods used by us are adequately safe and reliable. Good clinical outcomes can be achieved by open reduction and fixation of Rockwood type III AC joint dislocation even without CC ligament reconstruction. Key words: acromioclavicular dislocation, classification, reconstruction, coracoclavicular ligament.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a significant cause of disability. Considering the increasing diffusion of the viscosupplementation (VS) with hyaluronic acid (HA), the International Symposium Intra Articular Treatment (ISIAT) appointed a Technical Expert Panel (TEP) to identify the criteria for successful VS with a specific HA in OA; this through a systematic literature review (SLR), performed following the PRISMA guidelines interrogating Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Grey Matters and American College of Rheumatology (ACR/EULAR) databases and the opinion of international experts. The research included only studies on adults and humans without limitations of language or time of publication. Researchers extracted both quantitative and qualitative data from each study. Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) was used to perform quality analysis for the level of evidence. The SLR retrieved 385 papers, 25 of which were suitable for the analysis. The TEP focused on the different formulations of the product Sinovial® [HA 0.8%, HA 1.6%, HA 2%, 800-1200 kDa, HA 3.2% (1400-2100 kDa/65-110 kDa)]. The choice was due to the vast amount of evidence available. The TEP weighed the evidence in two rounds of a Delphi survey; the results, and any disagreement, were discussed in a final session. Three domains were considered: 1) the patients' characteristics associated with the best results; 2) the contraindications and the conditions linked to increased risk of failure; 3) the clinical conditions in which VS is considered appropriate. The TEP concluded that VS with HA is safe and effective in the treatment of knee and hip OA of grades I to III and that it is possible to undertake VS in other situations (eg grade IV Kellgren-Lawrence - KL); a comprehensive examination of the patient should be performed before the procedure.
