Clubfoot, or congenital talipes equino varus (CTEV), is a birth defect where the foot is twisted inward and downward. It has 4 main deformities - adduction of the forefoot, inversion/varus of the hindfoot, equinus of the hindfoot, and cavus of the midfoot. Incidence is 1-2 per 1000 births and is more common in males. Etiology may include chromosomal, embryonic, neurological, and fetal theories. Pathoanatomy involves twisting of the talus, calcaneus, and other bones. Treatment goals are to realign the bones through serial casting or surgery. The Ponseti method uses serial plaster casts and foot manipulation to gradually

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

7. ETIOLOGY
Otogenic theory (arrest theory)
arrest of development
related to a change in genetic factor known as “cronon”
Cronon : guide the precise time of the progressive
modification every structure during development
10. Schematic illustration of the critical periods in human development. During the first two weeks development, of the embryo is
usually not susceptible to teratogens. During these pre-embryonic stages, a teratogen either damages all or most of the cells,
resulting in its death, or damages only a few cells, allowing the conceptus to recover and the embryo to develop without birth
defects. Red denotes highly sensitive periods when major defects may be produced (e.g. amelia, absence of limbs). Yellow
indicates stages that are less sensitive to teratogens when minor defects may be induced (e.g. hypoplastic thumbs)
11. Etiology

12. PATHOANATOMY
Major deformity
• Inward rotation of the whole foot on the talus
Rotation primarily takes place in :
• talocalcaneal joint
• talonavicular joint
• calcaneocuboid joint
17. Pathomechanics of talipes
equinovarus
A. Posterolateral view of the
calcaneus and talus of normal foot. B.
Lateral rotation of the talus, C. The
anterior part of the calcaneus is
pressed by the head of the talus and
forced into plantar
flexion, rotation, and varus position.
(From Carroll, N., Murphy, R, and
Leete, S.F. : The pathoanatomy of
congenital clubfoot, Orthop.Clin.N.
Amer., 9 : 227, 1978)
22. PATHOANATOMY
Calcaneo-cuboid joint:
Cuboid displaced medially on calcaneus and under navicular &
cuneiform
All ligaments : contracted
Forefoot : supination and adduction
Calcaneo-cuboid joint corrected nicely if other 2 subtalar
complex are corrected except in resistant CTEV
23. PATHOANATOMY
Muscles
Imbalance between agonist and antagonist
Muscles tonus determined by the amount of muscle
fibres type I & II
All muscle below knee in CTEV fibre Type I > II [similar
with L.M.N lesion : AMC, sacral agenesis, Charcot-
Marie, post poliomyelitis]
Some CTEV tendency to be recurrent
24. PATHOANATOMY
Vascular
By Doppler Technique :
In normal population : a.dorsalis pedis 2.2.% absent
In mild & moderate CTEV : a.dorsalis pedis = normal
In severe CTEV : a.dorsalis pedis = 6.7% absent
25. MECHANISM of the CTEV
Fetal posture abnormality :
foot in equinovarus
Muscle imbalance : tib.
post. contracted
Factors determine the
severity of the CTEV
Intrauterine position. The hips are always
flexed and externally rotated, while the knees
are usually flexed and the feet turned inward
33. Radiology : age more than (4-5) months
N : AP : talo-calcaneal angle :
(200-400), CTEV < 200
Lat : talo-calcaneal angle :
(350-500), CTEV<350
34. DIAGNOSIS
1. Non rigid type (packing syndrome)
2. Rigid type :
• Moderate
• Severe
3. Resistance rigid type :
• AMC
• Myelomeningocele
• Constriction band
42. TREATMENT
The goal of treatment :
• Realign the os calcis, scaphoid and cuboid
around the astragalus by correcting the varus,
adduction, varus and equinus
• Maintain the correction until stable
normal function, no pain, plantigrade, good
mobility, no callus formation, wearing normal

treatment : knowledge,patience andenthusiasm
52. Ponseti
Based on kinematic of the subtalar joint.
1st concept : the whole foot moves under the talus “calcaneo-
pedis block”
2nd concept : fore foot and hind foot are corrected
simultaneously by abduction
Equinus correction :
• mostly close tenotomy
• tendo achilles non stretchable collagen, thick and
stiff

2. Varus : will be corrected by 4 & 1
6 weeks
54. Abduction of fore foot in pronation the cavus becomes more severe, calcaneus
locked (jammed) under the head of talus; mid foot and forefoot are twisted eversion
Kite
Clubfoot correction
56. Calcaneo-cuboid is used as fulcrum which is pressed medial ward while fore foot
is moved lateral ward (abduction); calcaneus will not move lateral ward (no
abduction) that is why the varus will not be corrected; only naviculare and fore foot
will move lateral ward. To press the posterior part of calcaneus to correct varus is
a big mistake
Kite
57. Clubfoot correction
a. realign cavus : forefoot supinated (3,4)
b. fulcrum : caput tali – stabilisator (5)
c. forefoot in supination – abduction (6)
d. maximal abduction of forefoot (7)
e. dorso flexion of the ankle (+TAL)
Process of a,b,c,d (5-6) x each (5-7) days.
Plaster cast above knee (groin), knee
flexion 900
Ponseti
60. TAL

Ponseti success = 90%
69. Common errors
1. Forefoot still in pronation
during correction of
adduction to abduction
2. Not using head of talus
as fulcrum
3. Calcaneus is pressed
lateral ward to correct
varus
4. Equinus is corrected
before adduction and
varus are corrected
Rocker bottom foot
5. Plaster immobilisation

89. Surgical complication
1. Infection
2. Bad scar
3. Stiff joint
4. Over/under correction
5. Navicular dislocation
6. Flattening or beaking talar head
7. Talar necrosis
8. Weakening of the muscles
9. Skew foot (severe valgus of the heel and adduction
of the fore foot)
10. Main artery injury foot necrosis
