Osteomyelitis of clavicle is rare in neonates. Acute osteomyelitis of clavicle accounts for less than 3% of all osteomyelitis cases. It may occur due to contiguous spread, due to hematogenous spread, or secondary to subclavian catheterization. Chronic osteomyelitis may occur as a complication of residual adjoining abscess due to methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) sepsis. We report a newborn female with right shoulder abscess that developed chronic clavicular osteomyelitis in follow-up period after drainage. She required multiple drainage procedures and was later successfully managed with bone curettage and debridement. We report this case to highlight that a MRSA abscess may recur due to residual infection from a chronic osteomyelitis sinus. It may be misdiagnosed as hypergranulation tissue of nonhealing wound leading to inappropriate delay in treatment. High index of suspicion, aggressive initial management, and regular follow-up are imperative to prevent this morbid complication.

Background. Conventional osteochondromas are common bone lesions developing in the metaphyseal region of growing skeleton. Marginal excision is the treatment of choice for such tumours. Extraosseous cartilaginous tumours are rare and their biological potential is poorly characterized. Case Presentation. A-52-year old woman presented with 3-year history of fullness and dull pain and inability to flex her left knee, sit cross-legged, or squat. Clinical and imaging studies revealed a nodular mineralised mass in the anterior portion of the knee displacing the patellar tendon laterally. Excision biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of extraosseous osteochondroma-like soft tissue mass. There is no recurrence at two-year followup. Conclusion. An integrated clinicopathological diagnosis helps to clarify the nature of extraosseous cartilaginous tumour that can arise at an unusual anatomic site. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice.
