A Huge Capital Drop with Compression of Femoral Vessels Associated with Hip Osteoarthritis by Tomoya Takasago, Tomohiro Goto, Takahiko Tsutsui, Kenji Kondo, Daisuke Hamada, Ichiro Tonogai, Keizo Wada, Koichi Sairyo

“…Capital drop itself is typically asymptomatic; however, symptoms can appear secondary to impinge against the acetabulum or to irritation of the surrounding tissues, such as nerves, vessels, and tendons. We present here a case of unilateral leg edema in a patient with hip OA, caused by a huge bone mass occurring at the inferomedial portion of the femoral head that compressed the femoral vessels. …”

A New Skeleton Model and the Motion Rhythm Analysis for Human Shoulder Complex Oriented to Rehabilitation Robotics by Song Zhibin, Ma Tianyu, Nie Chao, Niu Yijun

“…An important and difficult paradigm for motor function rehabilitation training is the movement rhythm on the shoulder, which is not a single joint but complex and ingenious combination of bones, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. The most robots for rehabilitation were designed previously considering simplified biomechanical models only, which led to misalignment between robots and human shoulder. …”
