Intraarticular osteochondroma of shoulder: a case report

Fracture of an Osteochondroma of Humerus by Arm Tourniquet Inflated to Measure Blood Pressure in Pediatric Patient With Radial Nerve Neuropraxia

“…It is typically characterized by metaphyseal location of the long tubular bones, and it is rare on the diaphyseal or the epiphysis [2,3,5,6]. Epidemiologically 70% of affected patients occur at 20 years or younger, and the male to female ratio is 2:1 or 1:1 [2,6,8]. In our case, it was localized in metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction of humerus, and the age of patient was similar in the literature.…”

“…In the literature, for pathological fracture, bone fracture was more than pedicle fracture [2,4,6,7]. The fracture of our case was pedicle.…”

“…It accounts for 30-49% of all benign bone tumors and 10-15% of all bone tumors [3,8]. It is typically characterized by metaphyseal location of the long tubular bones, and it is rare on the diaphyseal or the epiphysis [2,3,5,6]. Epidemiologically 70% of affected patients occur at 20 years or younger, and the male to female ratio is 2:1 or 1:1 [2,6,8].…”

“…When compression, fracture, bone deformity and mechanical joint problems occur with symtoms [1,3]. In addition, surgical treatment is considered because of pain, disturbance of growth, decreased range of motion, cosmetic, symptoms secondary to compression of anybody organ, fracture and malign transformation [2][3][4][5][6][7].…”

Recurrent anteroinferior glenohumeral instability resulting from a proximal humerus osteochondroma

“…[8] Loss of glenohumeral motion has also been observed when unusual locations of osteochondromas within the shoulder joint capsule have created mechanical blocks to motion. [9,10] Joint dislocation has been described not in the shoulder joint, but in the elbow joint complex, usually as the result of a deformity or mass effect arising either on the radius or the ulna. [11,12] This does not represent a dynamic process, but rather a static progressive joint dislocation created by the mass, which was successfully reversed by excision and joint reduction in these two young pediatric patients.…”
