    Are femoroacetabular impingement tomographic angles associated with the histological assessment of labral tears? A cadaveric study
    (2018) EJNISMAN, Leandro; DOMB, Benjamin G.; SOUZA, Felipe; JUNQUEIRA, Consuelo; VICENTE, Jose Ricardo Negreiros; CROCI, Alberto Tesconi
    Purpose This study sought to investigate the association between tomographic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) angles and histologically evaluated labral tears. The authors hypothesized that cadavers presenting with cam and pincer morphologies would present a higher prevalence of acetabular labral tears. Methods Twenty fresh cadavers were submitted to computed tomography. Standard FAI angles were measured, including the alpha angle, femoral version, acetabular version, Tonnis angle and center-edge angle. A cam lesion was defined as an alpha angle greater than 50 degrees. A pincer lesion was defined as a center-edge angle greater than 40 degrees, a Tonnis angle less than 0 degrees or acetabular version less than 0 degrees. After dissection, three fragments of each acetabulum, corresponding to the antero-superior, superior and postero-superior acetabular rim, were obtained. These fragments were submitted to routine histological preparation. Each slide was evaluated for possible labral tears. Tears were classified according to their Seldes type. Results The mean age of the cadavers was 50.2 years (SD: 7.4; 13 males). Sixteen (80%) of the cadavers had a cam lesion, and eight cadavers (40%) had a pincer lesion. Histologically, 16 (80%) of the cadavers had a labral tear in at least one region. According to the Seldes classification, 60.7% and 28.6% of these labral tears were type 1 and type 2, respectively. A mixed type of labral tear (10.7%), which represented a new form of Seldes tear, was described. Cadavers with a labral tear had significantly higher alpha angles than other cadavers (53.29 degrees vs 49.33 degrees, p = 0.01). Pincer lesions were not associated with labral tears. We found no association between pincer or cam lesions and Seldes classification. Conclusion Cadavers presenting with higher alpha angles had a higher incidence of labral tears. No association was found between FAI and Seldes classification. Clinical relevance This study demonstrated a high prevalence of FAI abnormalities associated with histological alterations in a cadaveric sample. Joint damage may be present in the early stages of FAI.

    Quantitative evaluation of collagen and elastic fibers after intense pulsed light treatment of mouse skin
    (2018) FAUCZ, Luciana L.; WILL, Sonia E.; RODRIGUES, Consuelo J.; HESSE, Henrique; MORAES, Angelina C.; MARIA, Durvanei A.
    Background and ObjectiveThe aging of human skin includes intrinsic aging and photo-aging, which are characterized by a decrease in collagen and the deposition of abnormal elastic fibers. Intense pulsed light (IPL) sources are widely used in medicine to treat various cosmetic problems, including photo-damaged skin. Few studies have examined the microscopic changes produced by IPL. The objective of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the effects of IPL on collagen and elastic fibers in mice. Materials and MethodsForty female BALB/c mice were divided into four subgroups. Group 1 was the control group (n=10), and groups 2, 3, and 4 were treatment groups (n=10 in each group). Group 2 received one treatment, group 3 received two treatments, and group 4 received three treatments every 2 weeks. Skin tissue was obtained from irradiated areas 24 hours after the last treatment in each mouse. Collagen fibers were identified using the picrosirius red method. Elastic fibers were marked by Weigert-oxone stain. All samples were analyzed and quantified by a light microscope using analyzer system images. ResultsGroup 4, which received three IPL treatments, showed significant quantitative increases in both collagen fibers (P<0.05) and elastic fibers (P<0.01). Collagen fibers demonstrated a better parallel distribution in relation to the epidermis. ConclusionIPL treatment significantly increased the number of collagen and elastic fibers within the dermis and improved the parallel distribution of collagen fibers in relation to the epidermis. These results were evident after three IPL treatments. Lasers Surg. Med. 50:644-650, 2018. (c) 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
