Case. A clinical case of a 15-year-old cerebral palsy child with a Sandhu type 2 neglected femoral neck fracture is presented. The patient was treated using cannulated screws and cancellous bone graft augmented with mesenchymal stem cells. At 6 months after the surgery complete fracture healing was observed. Conclusion. To early diagnose this fractures, it is mandatory to perform a comprehensive clinical and radiological evaluation including also a second level imaging. The use of cannulated screws with cancellous bone graft and MSCs is a viable treatment option in these patients. Case.

- Abstract
Introduction: Long-term use of bisphosphonates (BPs) has been associated with a specific type of tensile side femoral stress fracture known as Atypical Femoral Fracture (AFF). Theoretically periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFF) should be excluded from the diagnosis of AFF. However, emerging evidence correlates prolonged BPs use with the occurrence of a type of PFF with an atypical pattern (atypical PFF, APFF). The aim of the present study is to report 3 cases of APFF treated at a single centre.Methods: Clinical and radiographic records of PFF that occurred between January 2016 and August 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients meeting the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) criteria for definition of PFF were included. Management strategies for APFF and patient outcomes, including fracture healing and hip function (assessed by the Oxford Hip Score [OHS]) were collected.Results: 3 patients in the study period were identified as APFF (1 incomplete, 2 complete). All patients were females with a mean age of 83.3?years. All patients were treated with lateral plating. The application of a contralateral strut allograft resulted in fracture healing in cases of complete fractures. Mean OHS at final follow-up was 34.3.Conclusions: Despite occurring around a hip stem like PFF, APFF had peculiar clinical and radiographic features, making them more similar to AFF. Therefore, the orthopaedic surgeon should also consider the natural history and healing problems associated with AFF prior in order to choose the most appropriate management for APFF.

Introduction: Humeral shaft is a common site of fracture non-union. Biology and bone quality represent some of the problems that the orthopaedic surgeon has to face up in the elderly. The goals of treatment of humeral shaft non-union are the achievement of mechanical stability and creation of a favourable biologic environment. Bone graft and stem cells are some of the augmentation techniques available to reach these goals. Purpose: Evaluation of the outcomes of humeral shaft non-union in elderly population treated with cortical allograft and stem cells. Material and methods: A cohort of 21 patients with humeral shaft non-union was reviewed. Inclusion criteria were patients aged more than 65 years, with a diagnosis of humeral shaft non-union treated with cortical allograft and stem cells. Primary endpoints were ‘bone healing’ and ‘time-to-union’. Secondary endpoints were shoulder and elbow function and patients’ quality of life with Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), Constant score and EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D). Results: 6 patients met the inclusion criteria. In 5 of them, the cortical allograft was opposite to a plate, whereas in the other one a “Sandwich” technique was chosen because of large osteolysis. ‘Bone healing’ occurred in all patients after a mean of 3.3 months (range 2–5). In all but two patients, the elbow range of motion was in almost normal range (15–130). The mean OSS was 35.8 (+/− 6.4), whereas the mean Constant was 53.3 (+/− 2.2). The mean EQ-5D index was 0.451 (+/− 0.21). Discussion: Bone healing occurred in all patients, with a time-to-union comparable or even better compared with other series. The use of cortical bone graft provide both stability and biological benefit, whereas stem cells improve the non-union environmental biology. Functional outcomes were lower than other series and patients’ quality of life was similar to Italian elderly women. Conclusion: The use cortical allograft with stem cells is a viable strategy to treat humeral shaft non-union in the elderly. Introduction: Humeral shaft is a common site of fracture non-union.

- Abstract
Le fratture atipiche del femore (FAF) sono delle rare fratture da stress del femore recentemente descritte e po- tenzialmente associate ad uso prolungato di bifosfonati. La loro identificazione è cruciale per la corretta gestione del paziente, considerando che presentano delle caratteristiche e dei rischi propri, che impongono un approccio multidisciplinare per il loro trattamento. La radiologia tradizionale, unita alla storia clinica, è spesso sufficiente alla diagnosi, sebbene nelle forme incomplete l’uso integrato di tecniche d’imaging più sofisticate può essere necessa - rio per una corretta diagnosi. Scopo del nostro articolo è quello di descrivere questo tipo di frattura e di proporre un algoritmo che aiuti il radiologo alla loro identificazione.
