Introduction
Annually 80,000 hip fractures are treated at an estimated cost of two billion pounds. The 2011 guidance from the Royal College of Pathologists recommended all specimens where there is fracture through or below the articular surface shou...

Prediction of pathological fracture in patients with metastatic disease of the lower limb (2019)
Journal Article
Cool. (in press). Prediction of pathological fracture in patients with metastatic disease of the lower limb. Scientific reports, 9, Article 14133. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-50636-9

The aim of this study was to investigate if the risk of pathological fracture can be predicted with the proportion of body weight that can be put through the affected leg in patients with metastatic bone disease of the lower limb. A prospective obser... Read More about Prediction of pathological fracture in patients with metastatic disease of the lower limb.

Synovial chondromatosis and soft tissue chondroma: extraosseous cartilaginous tumor defined by FN1 gene rearrangement (2019)
Journal Article
Amary, F., Perez-Casanova, L., Ye, H., Cottone, L., Strobl, A., Cool, P., …Flanagan, A. M. (2019). Synovial chondromatosis and soft tissue chondroma: extraosseous cartilaginous tumor defined by FN1 gene rearrangement. Modern Pathology, 32(12), 1762-1771. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41379-019-0315-8

A fusion between fibronectin 1 (FN1) and activin receptor 2A (ACVR2A) has been reported previously in isolated cases of the synovial chondromatosis. To analyze further and validate the findings, we performed FISH and demonstrated recurrent FN1–ACVR2A...
