Spine localization of osteoblastoma + ABC is rare and its diagnosis and treatment are often challenging. Complete surgical excision seems to be confirmed as the gold standard of treatment, but the option of instrumented arthrodesis should be carefully evaluated. Osteochondroma is the group of benign bone tumours, which are composed of spongy bone covered by a cartilaginous cap. Patients with distal ulnar osteochondromas frequently cause forearm deformities with relative ulnar shortening, wrist joint deviation, and varus bowing. Surgical ulnar lengthening is necessary to restore the carpal balance. We report the case of multiple exostosis in a 13-year-old male with the right distal ulna osteochondroma with long-standing and progressive ulnar shortening and radial bowing treated with a limb reconstruction system. Our case is Type I Masada managed with excision of distal ulna osteochondroma and gradual ulnar lengthening without osteotomy of the radius. Progressive ulna deformity can lead to increasing pain, joint instability, limited motion, and functional decline. For Type I, Masada ulnar lengthening is necessary, but over correction is inadvisable due to possible ulnocarpal impaction syndrome. As significant remodeling effects on the radius were observed, simultaneous radial correction can be delayed.

Chondroblastoma is a rare primary benign tumor of bone with male predominance and is typically seen in an epiphyseal location. limertinib in vitro The pisiform is a carpal bone and chondroblastoma of the pisiform has not been reported in the literature to the best of our knowledge. An 18-year-old male presented with painful swelling over his right wrist with restriction of ulnar deviation. Based on magnetic resonance imaging findings, two diagnostic possibilities were entertained, namely, giant cell tumor of bone and chondroblastoma. Wide local excision was performed, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of chondroblastoma of the pisiform. After 2 years of follow-up, the patient has gained pain-free wrist movements post excision, and there are no signs of recurrence. The Modified Mayo Wrist Score of 75 (fair) improved to 100 (excellent). Surgeon should always keep in mind the possibility of the tumor at the rare site and accurately diagnose the tumor with the help of imaging modalities and biopsy.

Trochanteric fractures are common in elderly patients. Subtrochanteric fracture patterns are challenging due to the risk for non-union. We report a case of an 87-year-old woman with a subtrochanteric fracture treated with a cephalomedullary nail. A cutout of the blade occurred in the early follow-up and was treated with exchange nailing elsewhere. Late nail breakage due to non-union more than 4 years after exchange nailing was noted. The fracture healed uneventfully after revision at our institution with exchange nailing including the lateral cortical notching technique whilst applying osteoinductive supplements. From our point of view, the concept of lateral cortical notching should be taken into consideration to enhance treatment of subtrochanteric non-unions by exchange nailing.
