Case: This report describes a 25-year-old female professional triathlete with right external iliac artery endofibrosis (EIAE) that was definitively diagnosed on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images obtained immediately after treadmill running. The EIAE was treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. By 8 weeks after surgery, she had no symptoms of claudication or pain in the right thigh after a 1-hour running session. There has been no recurrence in 1 year postoperatively.
Conclusion: EIAE is a rare condition and difficult to diagnose in a timely manner because symptoms and radiographic imaging features appear only during intense exercise. Our patient was successfully treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty.

Objective: Limited prospective data are available on the outcomes and performance of sentinel node mapping (SNM) in patients with endometrial cancer (EC). This study aimed to describe the surgical outcomes related to laparoscopic staging and the performance of SNM in patients with apparent early-stage EC.
Methods: This is a secondary analysis of a prospective single-arm study focusing on predictors of nodal disease in apparent early-stage EC.

A 56-year-old female experienced massive pulsatile bleeding from the left ureter during routine ureteral stent exchange. She had a history of radical cystectomy and bilateral stent insertion due to uretero-intestinal strictures. Upon stent removal, sudden bleeding through the urostomy led to hypovolemic shock.

Background And Objective: Chronic osteomyelitis of long diaphyseal bones often results in extensive structural bone defects following debridement. Traditional approaches such as cancellous bone grafting, fibular transplantation, the classical Masquelet technique, and the Ilizarov method each have inherent limitations when used alone, particularly for defects exceeding 10 cm. This study aimed to evaluate a modified Masquelet technique, in which the induced membrane cavity is reconstructed using vascularized fibular grafts, for the management of ultra-long segmental bone defects.

Bipedalism is a human-defining trait. It is made possible by the familiar, bowl-shaped pelvis, whose short, wide iliac blades curve along the sides of the body to stabilize walking and support internal organs and a large-brained, broad-shouldered baby. The ilium changes compared with living primates are an evolutionary novelty.

Decisions pertaining to the management of an abdominal aortic aneurysm in combination with bilateral internal iliac aneurysms present quandaries during endovascular intervention. This report outlines an endovascular aortic repair method for endovascular aortic repair involving an abdominal aortic aneurysm with bilateral iliac aneurysms. The patient exhibited aneurysmal dilatation of the abdominal aorta, bilateral common iliac arteries, and bilateral internal iliac arteries.
