Finger enchondroma treated with bone substituents – a case presentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
About 90% of the hand bone tumors are enchondromas. Treatment of choice is complete curettage and bone grafting, usually with bone autografts. We present a case of finger enchondroma in a 27-year-old female patient who was treated with curettage and synthetic bone grafting. Clinical, surgical and pathological findings in this case are presented along with a brief discussion of literature.

متن کاملRecurrence of Enchondroma in a Middle Finger after Curettage and Back-filling with Calcium Phosphate Bone Cement: a Case Report.
We report a case of recurrence of enchondroma in a middle finger after curettage and back-filling with calcium phosphate bone cement (CPC). The radiograph showed a lytic lesion around the CPC filling which showed no signs of absorption after 12 years. The tumor was curated easily, however, a steel bar was needed to remove the CPC mass in a carefully manner not to break the cortex. CPC has an ad...
متن کاملCurettage Using Soft-wire for Enchondroma in the Hand: A Technical Note
INTRODUCTION Enchondromas are benign bone cartilaginous lesions predominantly seen in the hand, possibly leading to a pathological fracture. When the lesion expands to the whole phalanx, curettage through a small fenestration is difficult. To overcome the problem, soft-wire (cerclage wire) was used as a curette. Soft-wire is commonly used for a tension band wiring method for patellar or olecran...
