The bony landmark method provided a more accurate posterior tibial slope than the conventional method. However, there was no difference in coronal alignment compared with the conventional method.

We present a case of phalangeal deformity in a 17-year-old boy. The deformity was caused by a neurofibroma associated with neurofibromatosis type 1, affecting the left ring finger. The mass was surgically resected. Recurrence had not occurred at three-year follow-up.

Synovial osteochondromatosis (SOC) is a benign tumor characterized by synovial connective tissue metaplasia. SOC commonly affects major joints including the knee followed by the hip, elbow, and wrist. SOC cases in the hand are not reported as often as SOC of major joints. Particularly SOC of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is rare. We report on a 57-year-old female with primary SOC of the carpometacarpal joint of her left thumb. Surgical excision was performed and the patient had no symptoms with full range of motion of her left thumb. At 3 years of follow-up, there was no recurrence.
