Eighty-five patients who underwent trochanteric bone graft harvest in association with foot and ankle surgery were studied retrospectively by patient questionnaire. The average follow-up was 49 months (range, 14–101 months). Ninety-five percent of the patients expressed satisfaction with the procedure, in that they would choose to accept the trochanteric bone graft again if required to make the choice. However, 31 % of the patients acknowledged some degree of hip discomfort and 4% reported some daily pain. Nineteen of 85 patients (22%) were treated for trochanteric pain. Most patients responded to strengthening/stretching and heat/ice. Four patients (5%) had failed or delayed union of the arthrodesis in which trochanteric bone graft was utilized. The greater trochanter may be considered as an alternative for major bone graft when the iliac bone is not available and when weightbearing is restricted for at least 6 weeks after surgery. As with the use of iliac bone graft, patients should be alerted to the possibility of postoperative discomfort. Surgical details should be followed to minimize the risk of peritrochanteric fracture.

Objective: This is a review of modifications made to the classic technique for harvesting bone graft from the iliac crest. Prior techniques for harvesting iliac bone often resulted in significant postoperative pain, disability, and a cosmetically unacceptable scar and contour deformity. Design: A retrospective review of patients who underwent bone graft harvest over a 7-year period was done. Interventions: The modifications described use a skin incision medial to the anterior superior iliac crest. The medial aspect of the iliac crest is elevated along the midsagital axis of the crest. The medial cap is reflected outward, exposing cancellous bone. Results: A review of 51 patients demonstrated only two minor self-limiting complications. Conclusions: This procedure provides an abundant supply of both cortical and cancellous bone, an aesthetically acceptable scar, and decreased patient discomfort.

Secondary chondrosarcomas according to malignant transformations of the solitary enchondromas were extremely rare in the hand. The aim of this study is to present a case of a 43-year-old male having rare malignant transformation of the solitary enchondroma treated with total excision and replacement with iliac bone graft.
