“…Generally surgical therapy may become necessary if a pathological fracture occurs. Curettage of the lesion and filling of the defect with autologous bone grafting or supplementation with substitutes are regarded as the treatment of choice (10,11). Surgical therapy often can be avoided if the diagnostic imaging suggests a benign unremarkable lesion with normal follow-up.…”

Malignant transformation of solitary enchondromas of the hand to secondary chondrosarcomas is extremely rare. We report a case of a recurrent chondromatous tumor of the hand that initially presented with the typical histology of a cellular enchondroma of the small tubular bones but with clinical and radiological signs of malignancy. After development of a single pulmonary metastasis of a chondromyxoid tumor a malignant transformation of the primary enchondroma of the hand must be assumed.

“…Curettage followed by augmentation of the void defect is the mainstay of surgical treatment for enchondroma. There are numerous ways to fill the void defect, including autologous bone grafting, which has been known as the standard treatment option [6][7][8][9][10]. This is performed using bone graft substitutes such as calcium phosphate cement or plaster of Paris, etc.…”

Enchondroma is the most common benign tumor that frequently occurs in hand. Curettage followed by augmentation of the void defect is the mainstay of enchondroma treatment such as autologous bone grafting or using bone graft substitutes. In this study, we analyzed the surgical results of a hand enchondroma treated by curettage and grafting with calcium sulfate pellet (OsteoSet Ò , Wright Medical Co, USA) grafting. Eighteen patients with hand enchondroma were reviewed. There were seven male cases and eleven female cases with the mean age of 35.4 years (range, 12-55). Involved bones were metacarpal (5 cases), proximal phalanx (7 cases), middle phalanx (3 cases) and distal phalanx (3 cases). The mean follow-up period was 32 months (range, 18-48). We analyzed the clinical result and radiologic appearance of the surgically treated digits. The resorption of calcium sulfate pellet and bone remodeling were checked by serial radiographs. The mean time for complete pellet resorption was postoperative 4 weeks (range, 3-6 weeks). Bone remodeling was completed in all cases at mean postoperative 10 weeks (range, 7-11). All surgically treated digits had full range of motion except one digit that was fixed with K-wire to treat a pathologic fracture simultaneously. No other complications and local recurrence were encountered. Curettage and calcium sulfate pellet (OsteoSet Ò ) grafting proved to be a safe, promising modality for treatment for hand enchondroma. It led to excellent functional and radiologic results.
