Two infants on the neonatal unit aged 143 days and 47 days with difficult venous access were successfully resuscitated from episodes of coliapse using the intraosseous route. (Arch Dis Child 1993;68:324-325) Intraosseous resuscitation of babies and infants is taught to residents in North America in the paediatric advanced life support course.1 No such formal training is widely available in Grea...

Results Overall response rate was 95% (n = 19). Of the responding Danish emergency departments 74% (n = 14) have intraosseous devices. Despite this 33% (n = 6) of the departments did not use intraosseous devices at all and in 68% (n = 13) it was used infrequently. In 47% (n = 9) of the departments there had never been any training sessions in the use of intraosseous devices, and 42% (n = 8) did...

We present a case of a 65-year-old woman who developed a delayed deltoid compartment syndrome after resuscitation via humeral intraosseous access. Initially she was treated conservatively but then was taken emergently for a fasciotomy. After confirming the diagnosis with compartment pressures, a 2-incision approach was employed and a large hematoma was evacuated from the inferior margin of the ...

The Consortium on Intraosseous Vascular Access in Healthcare Practice consisted of Lynn Phillips, Infusion Nurses Society and Consortium Chair; Lucinda Brown, Society of Pediatric Nurses; Teri Campbell, Air and Transport Nurses Association; Julie Miller, American Association of CriticalCare Nurses; Jean Proehl, Emergency Nurses Association; and Barbara Youngberg, Visiting Professor of Health La...

Ameloblastoma is an odontogenic tumor of high frequency and usually occurs as an intraosseous growth. Ameloblastomas frequently recur, sometimes undergoing malignant transformation. These tumors are usually characterized as being multilocular, of the follicular type histopathologically, and invading strongly at the border region of the tumor. More than 10% p53-positive tumor cells give a progno...

We report the case of a 25-year-old woman presenting with left hip pain. A lesion was found in the proximal femoral metaphysis. Benign bone tumor, such as intraosseous lipoma or liposclerosing myxofibrous tumor, was suspected based on simple radiographs and magnetic resonance images. Curettage of the lesion and bone grafting was performed. Histologic findings reflected primary intraosseous xant...

Epithelioid sarcoma represents less than 1% of soft tissue sarcomas and has a high recurrence rate and strong ability to invade the regional lymphatic pathways. Classic epithelioid sarcoma has a predilection for young men and usually affects the distal extremities, while the proximal-type is characterized by different histological features and most commonly occurs in the proximal part of the ex...

the neurilemmoma is a benign neoplasm of schwann cell origin. one of the histopathologic subtypes of this tumor is ancient schwannoma which is characterized by degenerative alterations including cystic change, calcification, hemorrhage, and hyalinization. intraosseous schwannomas especially ancient ones are rare tumors. here we present a case of intraosseous ancient schwannoma in the lower jaw ...

A 74-year-old woman presented with a history of right leg pain. She did not have any obvious past or recent history of physical trauma. Knee radiography showed an oval hypertranslucent lesion in the right tibia (Picture 1). Computed tomography revealed an osteolytic tumor in the left ilium and the right tibia (Picture 2). The left iliac lesion appeared hyperintense on T2-weighted short-tau inve...
