The question of whether an ideal network exists with global scalability in its full life cycle has always been a first-principles problem in the research of network systems and architectures.Thus far,it has not been possible to scientifically practice the design criteria of an ideal network in a unimorphic network system,making it difficult to adapt to known services with clear application scenarios while supporting the ever-growing future services with unexpected characteristics.Here,we theoretically prove that no unimorphic network system can simultaneously meet the scalability requirement in a full cycle in three dimensions—the service-level agreement(S),multiplexity(M),and variousness(V)—which we name as the“impossible SMV triangle”dilemma.It is only by transforming the current network development paradigm that the contradiction between global scalability and a unified network infrastructure can be resolved from the perspectives of thinking,methodology,and practice norms.In this paper,we propose a theoretical framework called the polymorphic network environment(PNE),the first principle of which is to separate or decouple application network systems from the infrastructure environment and,under the given resource conditions,use core technologies such as the elementization of network baselines,the dynamic aggregation of resources,and collaborative software and hardware arrangements to generate the capability of the“network of networks.”This makes it possible to construct an ideal network system that is designed for change and capable of symbiosis and coexistence with the generative network morpha in the spatiotemporal dimensions.An environment test for principle verification shows that the generated representative application network modalities can not only coexist without mutual influence but also independently match well-defined multimedia services or custom services under the constraints of technical and economic indicators.

Li-Fraumeni syndrome(LFS)is a rare hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome characterized by a heightened risk of developing various malignancies at an early age.Emerging evidence suggests a correlation between LFS and orthopedic manifestations,underscoring the importance of orthopedic screening in individuals with this syndrome.Pediatric cancer is rare.It is estimated that more than 10%-15%of tumors are secondary to a pathogenic variant in a cancer predisposition gene.More than 100 cancer predisposition genes and their association with syndromes or isolated tumors have been identified.LFS is one of those who have been most widely described.Patients with this syndrome present a high risk of developing one or more tumors.Its knowledge enables the establishment of a follow-up protocol for the patient and affected family members,facilitating early detection of new tumors and reducing tumor and treatment-related morbidity and mortality.The primary objective of this invited editorial article is to provide a thorough review of the existing knowledge of LFS and its polymorphic spectrum of related malignancies,with a focus on aspects directly linked to orthopedic manifestations.Another objective is to offer an update on the most modern prevention,treatment and follow up guidelines that could be useful for the physicians dealing with this cohort of patients.
