In Perthes disease, the resultant femoral head deformity may lead to abnormal mechanical function of the hip. The morphology of the proximal femur after healed Perthes disease is the single most important factor predicting the long-term outcome. [9, 14, 20] Typically, the deformities include a high-riding greater trochanter, a short femoral neck, and an aspherical femoral head-neck junction. Complex deformities of the proximal femur can cause both intra-articular and extra-articular…

anterior ankle joint causing impingement and pain with active range of motion. The left ankle fracture is well healed by x-ray evaluation. The most likely diagnosis is post-traumatic osteoarthritis after an open fracture dislocation of the left ankle 20 years ago.

Eliot’s Journey of the Magi reiterates the hollow state of humanity, in Preludes, characterised by the covetous “silken girls bringing sherbet”, “liquor and women” and “summer places”, an indulgence and temptation lusted for by the void modern soul. The symbolic “voices singing”…
