Posteromedial tibial plateau avulsion fracture caused by semimembranosus muscle is not easy to detect by X-ray. The literature regarding this issue is poor, also mechanism is extensively disputable. This lesion was often connected to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and medial meniscal horn lesion. In this work, we described a posteromedial tibial plateau avulsion fracture at the semimembranosus insertion. In particular, we referred to the surgical treatment of those transversal osteochondral fractures. Keywords: Osteochondral, Avulsion, Fracture, Tibial plateau, Posteromedial, Semimembranosus

Background and Objectives: Prostate cancer treatments paradigms are in continuous evolution, especially in metastatic setting. In this context, the Genito-Urinary (GU) Group of Italian Association of Radiotherapy and Clinical Oncology (AIRO) aimed to create a Consensus on radiotherapy indication in de novo metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer both on primary tumour and metastatic sites., Methods: A panel of experts, involved in clinical management of prostate cancer, through the estimate-talk-estimate (ETE) method, developed a list of items and correspondent statements on the identified topic., Key Findings: Seven conclusive items were identified with 12 statements about the chosen topic, radiotherapy in metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer on primary tumour and metastatic sites., Conclusions and Clinical Implications: This consensus might help clinicians in prostate cancer managing in daily clinical practice., Competing Interests: Conflict of Interest Statement BAJF reported research funding from ACCURAY, IBA, AIRC (Italian Association for Cancer Research) and Fondazione IEO-CCM (Istituto Europeo di Oncologia-Centro Cardiologico Monzino). NGL reported funds from AstraZeneca, Amgen, Janseen. AL, ARA, GP, FP, LT, EC, AM, SF, GF, AR, RDA, CS had no funds to report., (Copyright © 2024. Published by Elsevier Inc.)
