    Osteoblastoma esclerosante multifocal yuxtacortical (Osteoma osteoide multicéntrico): a propósito de un caso localizado en acetábulo
    (Elsevier, 1984) Pastor, F. A.; Trigueros, M.; Martínez Díaz, F.; Marsa, J.; Ortuño, G.; Oftalmología, Optometría, Otorrinolaringología y Anatomía Patológica
    A case of a multifocal sc/erosing osteob/astoma is described, localized in the base of the right hip's acetabulum. The tumor affected a 18 year o/d girl and was rather large (6 cm.). According to a previous x-ray of the patient it developed during tw_o years. The c/inica/, radiological and histological features of this case coincide with criteria for both Osteoid osteoma and osteoblastoma, so that a common denomination for this group of lesions would be desirable.

    Overview of joint tissue alterations in femoroacetabular impingement: What we know through laboratory analyses
    (2026) Michela Battistelli; Eleonora Olivotto; Giorgia Borciani; Biología Celular e Histología; Universidad de Murcia, Departamento de Biologia Celular e Histiologia
    Hip osteoarthritis (HOA) is the most common hip joint disorder, accounting for approximately 27.9% of all cases of osteoarthritis (OA), often leading to total hip replacement (THR). In the last decades, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has been addressed as a significant etiological factor in the development of early-onset HOA, especially in young adults with non-dysplastic hips. FAI has been found to cause damage to all joint tissues, cartilage, labrum, and subchondral bone, thus underlining the importance of an early diagnosis and intervention to prevent progression to end-stage disease. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the biochemical, morphological, and cellular alterations occurring in hip joint tissues in the presence of FAI. Understanding the early pathological changes is of crucial importance as they often precede radiographic signs of disease and may serve as valuable biomarkers for early detection and management of FAI and peri-arthritic conditions to delay or prevent the need for THR in younger populations.
