MYCOBACTERIUM AVIUM COMPLEX OLECRANON BURSITIS RESOLVES WITHOUT ANTIMICROBIALS OR SURGICAL INTERVENTION: A CASE REPORT AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE

Mycobacterium avium complex olecranon bursitis resolves without antimicrobials or surgical intervention: A case report and review of the literature

Introduction: Nontuberculous mycobacteria are an uncommon cause of septic olecranon bursitis, though cases have increasingly been described in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts.Guidelines recommend a combination of surgical resection and antimicrobials for treatment.This case is the first reported case of nontuberculous mycobacterial

CVT-based swarming techniques for convex and non-convex cases

In the multi-robot swarm control algorithm, the traditional rigid formation algorithm has low formation redundancy, and it is difficult to flexibly adapt to the external environment.In this study, centroidal Voronoi tessellation (CVT) was used to control a group of robots for forming the required flexible formations and increasing the structural re

Preoperative Predictors of Soft Tissue Releases Required for Femoral Exposure in Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty

Background: Sequential soft tissue releases are utilized in direct anterior approach (DAA) total hip arthroplasty (THA) as incomplete femoral exposure may lead to complications.This study identifies patient-specific parameters associated with soft tissue releases required for femoral exposure.Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on 133 pat
