Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) is an uncommon reactive mesenchymal lesion mainly affecting the small bones of the hands and feet. They frequently occur in young adults. It is important to understand and differentiate BPOP from other lesions, especially because of its atypical microscopic features and tendency to recur. We present a case of a recurrent lesion involving the toe and discuss management options. To our knowledge, our current case report is the first in the literature to report a recurring BPOP lesion of the toe.

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation, or Nora's lesion, is a unique bony lesion that generally originates from the small bones of the hands and feet in young adults. We report a case of a bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation originating from the medial sesamoid of the first toe that was managed surgically by en bloc excision. At 5-year follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence.

Bizzare parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation, or Nora‘s lesion is a unique bone lesion that most often arises in the small bones of hands and feet.  It is characterised by proliferation of chondroid, bony and fibrous tissue, and is occasionally misdiagnosed as a malignant process.  Our case was a 31 yr old lady, who presented with a painless swelling near the 5th metacarpal bone of right hand.  X-ray showed well marginated mineralised mass arising from the cortical surface of the metacarpal bone.  Histopathological examination revealed bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation composed of varying amounts of cartilage, bone and spindle cells. Cartilage was hypercellular and chondrocytes were enlarged. Ossification was irregular and had a peculiar blue tinctorial quality.

Every one of us has heard about tragic and sudden death of a healthy young person and which is often stated as ‘inexplicable’. The current case report focuses on a 20 year old young man with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy facing premature death with history of similar sudden premature death of his grandmother, father and brother. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the commonest cause of sudden cardiac death in young adults and is also an important substrate for heart failure disability at any age.Cardiovasc. j. 2015; 8(1): 73-77

Abstract Background: Giant cell lesion of small bones (GCLSB), also known as giant cell reparative granuloma, is a rare tumor-like condition occurring in the small bones of the hands and feet. GCLSB lacks specific clinical, radiological, and histological manifestations. There are no standardized protocols for treatment. Case presentation: Here, we report a 16-year-old male with recurrent GCLSB in the proximal phalanx of the left thumb. The lesion was successfully resected with bone grafting. Conclusions: We summarized the characteristics of 33 reported cases of GCLSB from 1983 to date, including gender, age, lesion sites, recurrence, and treatment. We conclude that resection and reconstruction with curettage is the treatment of choice.

Abstract Raynaud’s phenomenon is a paroxysmal and recurrent vasospasm phenomenon characterized by tricolour changes in extremities, commonly hands and feet, triggered by exposure to cold. When isolated it is described as primary, and secondary when associated with other medical conditions. It is usually more common in young adults and is rare in children and very rare in infants. Here, we report a case of Raynaud phenomenon in the immediate postnatal period and review the medical literature on this subject.


Pilomyxoid astrocytoma (PMA) is an atypical subtype of pilocytic astrocytoma (PA), which presents in children and young adults. The incidence of PMA is low, so there is no standardized treatment protocol for it. Here, we present a 62-year-old woman with recurrent PMA, which is important for the understanding and treatment of the disease.

Heterotopic pregnancy is the condition where both intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy are present. It rarely occurs after natural conception, but is more common with assisted reproductive techniques, when more than one embryo is transferred. Quadruplet heterotopic pregnancy is exceedingly rare. Methods: A literature review was conducted aiming to highlight the diagnosis difficulties and the management options in heterotopic quadruplet pregnancies. Results: Nine relevant studies were identified by researching PubMed up to 2021 for “heterotopic quadruplet pregnancy”, “quadruplet intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy”, “synchronous intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy”. Conclusions: In this paper, we present a case of heterotopic quadruplet pregnancy and address the difficulty in diagnosing this condition and make formal recommendations.

Submitral aneurysms are rare clinical entities occurring predominantly in young adults of African descent. A host of etiologies have been proposed for this entity. We present a unique case of submitral aneurysm which developed after pulmonary artery banding in a three-year-old girl with complex congenital heart disease. The aneurysmal sac was burrowing into the interatrial septum.

Infantile malignant osteopetrosis is a hereditary bone disease with intense positive balance of body calcium. Osteopetro-rickets is a very rare paradoxical association of infantile osteopetrosis and rickets. This is a case report of an infant with osteopetro- rickets. He presented with severe anaemia, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly and clinical signs of rickets. The clinical, biochemical and skeletal survey showed osteopetrosis and rickets. We also describe the pathophysiologic mechanism and various management options. Key words: Osteopetrosis; Osteopetro-rickets; Rickets DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jnps.v32i1.5292 J. Nepal Paediatr.

В статье описан «неклассический» случай, редко встречающаяся форма заболевания системной красной волчанкой без типичного поражения кожи с проявлением быстропрогрессирующего гломерулонефрита, с поражением тазобедренного сустава, выраженным болевым синдромом у юноши. С применением новых инновационных методов диагностики (непрямая иммунофлюоресценция на анализаторе AKLIDES), что позволило провести своевременно комплексную терапию включая в себя патогенетическую, эфферентную (гемодиализ, плазмаферез), тем самым получен хороший клинический эффект. This article describes a non- racial case of systemic lupus erythematosus with the manifestation of a rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, hip joint lesion, a pronounced painful syndrom, without dermal manifestations. By the use of new diagnostic methods (immunofluorescence), timely complex therapy: pathogenetic, efferent therapy, symptomatic therapy, it is possible to obtain a fairly good clinical - laboratory- instrumental result.
