Large osteochondroma excision from distal radius
Osteochondroma is a common benign bone tumor, originating within the periosteum as a small cartilaginous nodule. The distal femur, the proximal tibia, and the proximal humerus are the most common locations and the majority of these lesions cause no symptoms and are discovered incidentally. We present a rare solitary large (approx. 11 cm long) osteochondroma originating from the ventral aspect of the distal end of the radius with mechanical restriction of movement of the wrist joint in an 8-year-old female patient. The biopsy is suggestive of benign chondro-osseous neoplasm favoring the diagnosis of osteochondroma. Surgical intervention with the excision of the osteochondroma of the distal radius was performed and thereby the symptoms showed a complete resolution.
Modular custom prosthetic reconstruction of proximal tibia giant cell tumor: a case report and review of literature
Giant cell tumors (GCTs) of bone are primary bone tumors that are benign in nature. They are biologically aggressive and have metastatic potential after malignant transformation. They occur in skeletally mature individual mainly in 3rd decade of life. Here, we present a case of a 29-year-old female diagnosed with right proximal tibia GCT, managed with en bloc excision and custom mega prosthesis arthroplasty
Right recurrent patellar dislocation treated surgically via the Campbell method: an illustrative case report
Recurrent patellar dislocation is a disabling condition, particularly prevalent among adolescents and young adults, often caused by anatomical abnormalities such as trochlear dysplasia or prior trauma. Surgical intervention, including the Campbell technique, is indicated when conservative management fails. A 24 years old male with recurrent right patellar dislocation and trochlear dysplasia (Dejour type B) underwent proximal realignment via the Campbell technique. The procedure involved creating a medial capsular flap, reinforcing it with Fiber wire sutures and repositioning it to stabilize the patella. Postoperative immobilization and rehabilitation were implemented. Surgical stabilization using the Campbell technique is a viable option for recurrent patellar dislocation, offering excellent functional outcomes in anatomically predisposed patients. Comprehensive evaluation and tailored surgical planning remain essential for optimal results
