Thumb proximal phalanx reconstruction with nonvascularized corticocancellous olecranon bone graft.
Large segmental bone defects of the phalanges reportedly have been treated with free vascularized grafts from the hand, foot, or knee, or with nonvascularized grafts from the iliac crest. A nonvascularized structural corticocancellous graft from a local site would be advantageous. The olecranon has been used as a source of both cancellous and corticocancellous graft. The authors describe a uniq...
متن کامل[Giant enchondroma of the thumb distal phalanx. Presentation of a case and review of the literature].
We report on a case of giant enchondroma of the distal phalanx of the thumb, with a significant degree of clinical and radiographic deformity. It is extremely rare in this location and its treatment should be surgical, with curettage of the lesional cavity and filling with autologous bone graft. In this case, we performed a differential diagnosis of a giant cell tumour and aneurysmatic bone cys...
متن کاملunusual constellation of anomalies in maternal diabetes syndrome: bifurcated distal phalanx of the thumb, cleft lip, and patent ductus ateriosus
maternal hyperglycemia during early gestation is associated with an increased incidence of congenital anomalies. a case of maternal diabetes syndrome is presented here with a rare constellation of congenital anomalies, i.e., bifurcated distal phalanx of the thumb, patent ductus arteriosus and cleft lip.
متن کاملMetacarpal Lengthening Of The Thumb Via Distraction Osteogenesis: A Case Report
Amputation of the thumb invariably causes marked functional impairment of the hand especially, pinch and grasp functions. In rural areas where highly skilled microvascular surgeries are not available, distraction osteogenesis provides an easy and safe alternative of thumb reconstruction. We report a case of crush injury of the right hand in a 37 year old gentleman in which the right thumb was a...
متن کاملChondroblastoma of the distal phalanx.
Chondroblastoma is a rare, benign primary bone tumor that usually occurs at the epiphysis of long bones. The authors present an example of the diagnosis and successful treatment of this neoplasm in an exceedingly rare location in the distal phalanx. Clinical and radiographic outcomes after 68 months of follow-up are presented. A 15-year-old, right hand-dominant, boy developed painful swelling o...
