[ 1 ] - گلوموس تومور در اندام فوقانی؛ گزارش بیست مورد در طی بیست و یک سال تجربه با این تومور

Introduction & Objective: Glomus tumor is a rare benign lesion of the skin and subcutaneous tissue arising from glomus apparatus and accounts for 1.6% of soft tissue tumors that is mainly located in upper extremities and especially in finger and thumb tips. The tumor is clinically characterized by a triad of pain, point tenderness and cold sensitivity. The aim of this study was the evaluatio...

[ 2 ] - Recurrence rate of radial deviation following the centralization surgery of radial club hand

Background: Congenital radial club hand (RCH), as a rare congenital deformity of the upper extremity, is characterized by a wide spectrum of malformations including radial deviation. Centralization surgery is the standard treatment for severe cases that have been associated with a high rate of recurrence. This study reports the long-term results and recurrence rate of radial deviation following...

[ 3 ] - An unusual case of radial polydactyly, (tetraplication of the thumb, duplication of the radial carpal bones and bifurcation of the radius)

  Radial polydactyly, the most common digital duplication in Asian and white populations, has a wide range of manifestations. Its classification is useful for planning and assessing surgical treatment. Our patient had four thumbs, duplicated radial carpal bones, and a bifurcated radius. This presentation is not covered by any of the current classifications. To the best of our knowledge, this is...

[ 4 ] - Habitual dislocation of the hip: a rare case report

 Habitual dislocation of the hip (HDH) in children is a rare entity and can be a causative factor for popping or snapping hip which is a common problem in children with good prognosis. We report a case of HDH in a 9 year old girl who was suffering from frequent snapping hip at night, its course and treatment process. 

[ 5 ] - An unusual case of preaxial polydactyly of the hand

Preaxial polydactyly is the most common duplication pattern in white and Asian populations (1). It is a congenital anomaly with a wide range of manifestations .Current classification do not have the capacity to classify all different types of radial polydactyly. We describe here a very rare and unusual case of bilateral preaxial polydactyly (triplication) in a woman and report the operations re...

[ 6 ] - Osteoid osteoma of the hand and wrist: a report of 25 cases

  Background : The hand and wrist bones are infrequent sites for osteoid osteoma, and its diagnosis can be difficult. This paper reports 25 cases of osteoid osteoma in the hand and wrist.   Methods : Records of the 25 patients who had pathological conditions of osteoid osteoma of the hand and wrist were reviewed and analyzed.   Results : Twenty-five cases of osteoid osteoma of the hand and wris...

[ 7 ] - Axillary artery injury with proximal humerus epiphyseal separation: a rare case report

 Fracture of the proximal humerus associated with vascular injury has rarely been reported in children, and only two cases have been reported in the literature. In adults this combination has been reported more frequently. We present the case of a 14 year old boy with proximal humeral epiphyseal separation and axillary artery injury. 

[ 8 ] - Radiographic indices in one hundred fifty normal Iranian wrists

 Abstract Background: Radiography is the most widely available imaging modality. Precise evaluations of wrist x-ray can help diagnosis and evaluate the prognosis of many wrist disorders. Methods: We measured length, angles and indices in 150 posteroanterior and lateral wrist x-rays to determine normal dimensions and variations according to age and sex. All x-rays were made with standar...

[ 9 ] - Bilateral combined Monteggia and Galeazzi fractures: a case report

 We present an exceedingly rare case of left Monteggia-Galeazzi fracture-dislocation and right Monteggiadistal radius fracture occurring simultaneously in a 20-year old male patient who had fallen 13 meters from a building. The combination of Monteggia and Galeazzi fracture-dislocation in the same forearm is very rare and, to the best of our knowledge, simultaneous bilateral Monteggia and Galea...

[ 10 ] - Relationship between radiographic carpal indices and grip strength

 Abstract Background: The measurement of hand grip strength has several clinical applications to evaluate chronic hand disability, response to treatment, and work capacity after hand injury. Methods: We measured hand grip strength of 41 adults and compared their maximum strength with radiographic indices. Results: There was a significant relationship between hand grip strength and carpal height...

[ 11 ] - Enchondroma of the hand: the role of biopsy in the course of diagnosis and treatment

 Abstract Background: Enchondroma, is the most frequent bone tumor of the hand , but chondrosarcoma is rare at this location .There is a high possibility of correct diagnosis of enchondroma and differentiating from its malignant counterpart by precise clinical and radiologic assessment without biopsy, a subject of debate in the literature . At the present study we substantially investigate this...
