Is bortezomib plus dexamethasone superior to vincristine plus doxorubicin plus dexamethasone as induction treatment prior to autologous stem-cell transplantation in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma : results of the IFM 2005-01 phase III trial?
Bortezomib plus dexamethasone significantly improved postinduction and post-transplantation CR/nCR and at least VGPR rates compared with VAD and resulted in a trend for longer PFS. Bortezomib plus dexamethasone should therefore be considered a standard of care in this setting.
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is useful for diagnosis and management of refractory musculoskeletal conditions that are commonly misdiagnosed on physical examination and translucent to radiographic imaging. Musculoskeletal ultrasound allowed us to exclude rotator cuff pathology, identify ACJ cyst as the pain generator, classify it as a type 1 ACJ cyst, and aid in needle guidance for successful aspiration leading to full resolution of our patient's pain.
