We report a case of A 28-years old girl presented to neurosurgery outpatient clinic of National Cancer Institute, Misurata - Libya complaining of headache, increased attacks of convulsions (she has been on anti-convulsant since childhood , valproic acid ) and unsteadiness. She walks with assistance and has a history of bowel and bladder dysfunction and right eye visual loss. Her Cranial and spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple homogenously enhancing lesions in the left parieto-temporal region ,craniometrical junction, lumbar and sacral regions..</p> <p>She underwent multiple surgeries including left side frontotemporal craniotomy, suboccipital craniotomy and spinal laminectomy in different sessions and total removal of thd tumors was achieved.</p> <p>Only about 19 cases of multiple cranial and spinal meningiomas have been reported, of which, only five cases have more than one spinal meningioma. The implication of the incidence of such multiple meningiomas in the same patient with relevance to investigations and decision making are discussed along with a brief review of literature of cases with multiple spinal and cranial meningiomas.</p> 2025-01-29T00:00:00+00:00 الحقوق الفكرية (c) 2025 Ahmed o.

E rashaelmheidi@gmail.com Albibi K asd@yahoo.com <p>This study explores the preparation and characterization of solid co-crystals of sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) and trimethoprim (TMP) to enhance their pharmaceutical properties, particularly solubility and stability. SMZ-TMP co-crystals were successfully obtained using methanol, while a salt form emerged in tetrahydrofuran (THF), demonstrating solvent-dependent behavior. Various characterization techniques, including Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD), were employed to confirm the formation and properties of the co-crystals. The SMZ-TMP co-crystal exhibited improved thermal stability and distinct molecular interactions, as evidenced by changes in FTIR hydrogen-bonding regions and thermal analysis.</p> 2025-01-29T00:00:00+00:00 الحقوق الفكرية (c) 2025 Elbakush R.

Due to comparatively variable and unexpected survival, the popularity of fat transfer surgery has fluctuated throughout the years. The outcome of autologous fat tissue grafts is influenced by numerous factors, some of which the surgeon can manage, like Aseptic procedures, low pressure suction, cautious handling of graft tissues, and the use of minimally traumatic cannulae. There is growing evidence that careful donor site selection and manipulation of specific healing mechanisms that regulate cellular recruitment, migration, and differentiation at the recipient site may improve the consistency and dependability of fat grafts.</p> <p>The purpose of this paper to investigate the improving the survivability and outcome of using transplanted fat with PRP as an alternative to soft tissue augmentation using only fat tissue transfer as the ordinary procedure</p> <p><strong>Materials and Methods:</strong></p> <p>The study here is a preliminary clinical investigation combined with a description of a novel technique.

The procedure involves drilling one or more small channels into the necrotic bone to relieve intraosseous pressure, enhance vascularization, and stimulate the formation of new bone tissue. Core decompression is most effective in the early stages of AVN (Ficat stages I and II), where joint collapse has not occurred.</p> <p>Clinical outcomes :</p> <p>suggest significant pain relief and improved function in patients with early-stage AVN. When combined with adjunct therapies, such as bone grafts, stem cells, or biologics, the success rate improves further.
