Tibial hemimelia is a rare condition. We present a variant of tibial hemimelia not reported in literature before. In this variant, we were able to successfully salvage the limb with excellent function to carry on with life.
Background: We present a case of a 35 yrs old female who presented with swelling over her forearm. This is a rare case of a giant cell tumour in a nonepiphyseal region.
Isolated fracture of the capitellum is rare. We present clinical and radiological data on a single case of a fracture of capitellum. We came across a 31 year old woman who sustained an isolated Hahn Steinthal type of fracture. It was treated operatively by open reduction and internal fixation using mini fragment screws. The elbow was immobilized for 4 weeks. The patient regained full range of movement at 12 weeks post operatively. We reiterate that anatomical reduction and fixation is the right way to treat this injury.
The Foot & Ankle Journal 1 (7): 2We report a case of a 35-year-old A bony prominence on the plantar aspect of the calcaneus at the attachment of the plantar aponeurosis is called a heel spur. Traction on the periosteum with consequent subperiosteal ossification may lead to its development. The patient complains of pain on the undersurface of heel on standing and walking and pain that is relieved by rest. It is characterized by localized tenderness and the discomfort may be increased by passive dorsiflexion of the ankle.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
