Severe Multiple Cartilaginous Exostoses
Multiple cartilaginous exostoses (MCE) is one of the most common inherited skeletal disorders. A collection of 1124 cases was reported by Stock and Barrington (1925). Recently other large series have been published by Solomon (1963) and Sauer (1979). Different terms have been used for it such as multiple exostoses, hereditary multiple exostoses and diaphyseal aclasis. The swelling or "lump" are...
متن کاملMultiple cartilaginous exostoses and development of chondrosarcomas--a systematic review.
INTRODUCTION Hereditary multiple cartilaginous exostoses is a syndrome characterised by the development of multiple osteochondromas. The diagnosis is typically made around the age of 12 years, and the prevalence is estimated at 1:50,000. During skeletal growth, the osteochondromas are benign, but in adult life malignant transformation into chondrosarcomas can occur. METHODS This study was a l...
متن کاملOccurrence of osteochondromatosis (multiple cartilaginous exostoses) in a domestic pig (Sus scrofa domesticus).
Osteochondromatosis is a condition in which multiple benign, cartilage-capped tumors arise from the surface of bones formed by endochondral ossification. The current report describes the presence of 4 prominent exophytic masses, measuring between 4 and 13 cm in diameter, arising from the surface of the ribs, and located within the thoracic cavity, in a 2-year-old female domestic pig (Sus scrofa...
متن کاملCorrection and lengthening for deformities of the forearm in multiple cartilaginous exostoses.
BACKGROUND Multiple cartilaginous exostoses cause various deformities of the epiphysis. In exostoses of the ulna, the ulna is shortened and the radius acquires varus deformity, which may lead to dislocation of the radial head. In this study, we present the results of exostoses resection, with correction and lengthening with external fixators for functional and cosmetic improvement, and preventi...
متن کاملHereditary multiple exostoses.
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is a skeletal disorder which primarily affects enchondral bone during growth. It is characterised by multiple exostoses, usually arising in the juxtaepiphyseal region of the long bones. Exostoses that affect "almost every bone in the body" were first mentioned by John Hunter in his Lectures on the principles of surgery in 1786.1 The first family affected by H...
