BACKGROUND: Central conventional chondrosarcoma (CS) is the most common subtype of primary malignant bone tumour in adults. Treatment options are usually limited to surgery, and prognosis is challenging. These tumours are characterised by the presenc...

Background: Non-diagnostic (ND) musculoskeletal biopsies of soft tissue lesions can increase patient anxiety and delay definitive diagnosis and treatment. It is thought the specific histotype of the lesion may influence accuracy of the biopsy. This s...

Mirels’ score for upper limb metastatic lesions: do we need a different cutoff for recommending prophylactic fixation? (2022)
Journal Article
Hoban, K. A., Downie, S., Adamson, D. J., MacLean, J. G., Cool, P., & Jariwala, A. C. (2022). Mirels’ score for upper limb metastatic lesions: do we need a different cutoff for recommending prophylactic fixation?. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jseint.2022.03.006

The aim of this study was to investigate the reproducibility, reliability and accuracy of Mirels’s score in upper limb bony metastatic disease and validate its use in predicting pathological fractures. Methods 45 patients with upper limb bony metasta... Read More about Mirels’ score for upper limb metastatic lesions: do we need a different cutoff for recommending prophylactic fixation?.
