Limited Range Of Motion

Charcot arthropathy is a chronic, degenerative condition and is associated with decreased sensorial innervation. Numerous causes of this arthropathy have been described. Here we report a case of neuropathic arthropathy secondary to syringomyelia which was misdiagnosed as a soft tissue tumor and treated surgically and additionally with radiotherapy at another institution. The patient had clinical and radiological signs of syringomyelia, associated with a limited range of motion, swelling, and pain in the affected joint. Neuropathic arthropathy, although less common, should be considered in cases of unexplained joint swelling, pain, and limited range of motion of the affected joint.

Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumors

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), previously described as inflammatory pseudotumor, can occur at any age but is a recognized soft tissue tumor of childhood. Less than 10 previous cases have been described of IMT affecting the heart, in patients ranging from 5 months to 17 years of age. We present three unusual, but similar, cases of IMT in infants, which were all predominantly intravascular in location, one of which was associated with death due to angiodestructive lesions of the coronary and cerebral arteries. These cases demonstrate an apparently distinct phenotype, with a predominant intravascular location of the tumor. Furthermore, this series highlights the difficulty in categorizing such lesions as benign versus malignant on histological grounds alone. IMT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unusual pediatric intravascular spindle cell lesions.
