Chondromas are benign neoplasms arising from hyaline cartilage cells or mesenchymal cells often solitary, slow-growing masses. They may grow to a size that causes clinical problems, depending on the location. These are not locally invasive. Some chondromas may undergo malignant transformation; however, most chondrosarcomas are thought to arise de novo. We present a case of a 33 years old male patient who presented with chronic swelling on the dorsal aspect of the DAP joint of right great toe. The patient underwent surgical excision of the painless lesion. Post operative period was uneventful and the swelling resolved immediately. After a follow up of 1 year the patient has no complaints of pain or swelling.

Diabetic foot infection poses a complex problem due to several interrelated issues, including rapidly spreading infection, poor vascular supply, and reduced healing ability. Management may require multiple operative procedures and prolonged treatment with a high risk of morbidity, such as amputation, and mortality. Debridement of infection commonly creates large wounds and soft tissue defects, with limited soft tissue reconstructive options due to adverse local and systemic factors. In this setting, treatment often consists of protracted periods of secondary wound healing by granulation, de-tensioning the tissues by removing bone, and minor or major amputation. Flaps and grafts may be considered but often carry unacceptable rates of failure. We present 3 cases in which DermaClose, an automated wound management system, was employed by a joint Orthopedic and Plastic Surgery team with excellent results and rapid closure of large soft tissue defects. Level of Evidence: Level IV.
