ABSTRACT Two cases of benign chondral tumors of the talar neck region (an osteoid osteoma and a chondroblastoma) were described. Because of their specific, unusual site they could be resected by arthroscopy. The imaging aspects, incidence in foot bones and possibilities of treatment were discussed, and a literature review is presented.

Background. Osteoid osteoma (OO) is one of the most commonly occurring benign bone tumors. It constitutes 10-12% of benign bone tumors and 2-3% of primary bone tumors. In radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment, the cells of the tumor are thermally inactivated by the help of electrodes shaped like needles. In our study, we aimed to show the major and minor complications in patients undergoing RFA and to show what should be done to prevent these complications. Methods. The study was carried out as a prospective study on the follow-up of 87 osteoid osteoma patients treated between 2015 and 2017. The youngest of the patients was 1 year old and the oldest was 42 years old. The RFA procedure lasted 10 min on average, excluding anesthesia and preparation. All lesions were ablated at 90 degrees for 7 minutes with the heat increased gradually. All patients were followed up for 1 day in the orthopedics clinic. Results. Complications were observed in 7 patients. The lesions with the most complications were observed to be in the tibia, second-degree burns were seen in 2 patients, and superficial skin infection was observed in 2 patients. In 1 patient, the probe tip was broken and remained within the bone. Intramuscular hematoma was detected in 1 lesion located in the proximal femur. A complaint of numbness in the fingers developed in a lesion located in the metacarpus. Conclusion. Preventive measures should be taken before the procedure in order to prevent minor complications, and, for major complications, close follow-up should be done after the procedure and patients should be kept away from heavy physical activities for the first 3 months.

Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor, which represents approximately 10% of all benign bone tumors. When localized to the carpus, osteoid osteomas are most often seen in the scaphoid and capitate. Rarely, these tumors can also be observed in the trapezium. Given the infrequency with which osteomas are located in the trapezium and often nonspecific presenting symptoms, diagnosis of this tumor can be challenging and requires a high index of suspicion.

Ten-year-old girl was referred to our clinic for back pain and stiffness of the spine. X-ray of the spine showed a dorsal scoliosis with no other abnormality (figure 1a). Computed Tomography (CT) showed the nidus in right pedicle of the 3rd lumbar vertebra (figure 1b). The diagnosis of Osteoid osteoma was retained and confirmed after surgical resection and pathological examination. Osteoid osteoma (O.O) accounts for 10 % to 20 % of benign bone tumors [1]. Up to 25% of all O.O are found in the spine. Two thirds of spinal O.O manifest as painful scoliosis [2]. The diagnosis of the tumor is usually delayed because easily missed on standard X-ray investigation. Systematic CT or MRI with dynamic contrast would be recommended for young patients presenting with painful scoliosis [3].

ABSTRACT Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a relatively frequent benign tumor of the bone which has seldom been described in the jaws. It was originally described by Bergstand in 1930 and recognized as a distinct clinical entity by Jaffe in 1935. It is composed of osteoid and woven bone, and surrounded by a halo of reactive sclerotic bone, with an average size of the nidus less than 1.5 cm. The lesion occurs predominantly in children, adolescents and young adults. It accounts for 3% of all primary bone tumors, and about 10% of benign bone tumors. About 80% cases of OO occur in long bones while less than 1% occurs in head and neck region. The most common site is in the skull. When affecting the facial bones, they are frequently found in the mandible, the most common location being the posterior lingual surface and the mandibular angle area. Herein, we report a rare case of OO of the mandible in a 16-year-old male patient with a brief literature review. How to cite this article Rathod SV, Patel S, Pathak J, Swain N.

Introduction. Osteochondromas are relatively common benign bone tumors often located at the metaphyseal ends of long bones; however, they are rare in the head and neck region. The objective of this study is to present a case of an osteochondroma arising from the thyroid cartilage causing insidious dysphonia and to present a literature review. Methods. The medical record of a patient treated for osteochondroma of the thyroid cartilage was reviewed. A literature search on osteochondromas was conducted using PubMed and Google Scholar. The epidemiology, presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of osteochondromas were reviewed. Results. A 50-year-old female presented with nine months of dysphonia and aphonic voice breaks. Laryngovideostroboscopy revealed a left false vocal fold fullness, glottal gap, and vibratory phase asymmetry. A CT neck demonstrated a well-circumscribed 5 × 8 × 9 mm mass arising from the left thyroid cartilage lamina with a thin calcified rim and a heterogeneous decreased attenuation center. The tumor was excised surgically. Histopathologic analysis demonstrated hyaline cartilage overlying lamellar bone with fatty bone marrow, consistent with osteochondroma. English language literature review revealed no cases of osteochondroma of the thyroid cartilage. The presenting features of osteochondroma may depend on the size and location of the lesion. It is critical to differentiate between benign and malignant bone tumors, and physicians must rely on their clinical examination, radiographic findings, and histopathologic analysis to make the correct diagnosis. Conclusions. Osteochondromas of the laryngeal framework are extremely rare, and to our knowledge, there have been no reports in the literature of this tumor arising from the thyroid cartilage. Dysphonia may be the presenting symptom in a patient with a thyroid cartilage mass causing restricted mobility of the true vocal folds.

Reticular erythematous mucinosis (REM) was first described 50 years ago, but only around 100 case reports in English have been published. Its relation with other inflammatory skin disorders is still being debated. We report a case of REM, including the clinical and histopathological findings. Also, a systematic review of 94 English-language reported cases is provided. The described criteria for clinical and histopathological diagnosis are highlighted in order to REM can be confidently diagnosed.
