“…Pathologic fractures underwent primary treatment (conservative or operative with K-wire pinning) and tumor curettage was delayed until the fracture healed. This schedule is consistent with the literature reports showing a higher rate of complications in patients undergoing tumor excision before fracture consolidation [ 7 , 8 ]. Malignant transformation of enchondromas is uncommon, except of multiple endochondromatosis as in the case of Ollier disease and Maffucci syndrome.…”

“…This is the most common bone tumor reported in the literature, constituting about 90 % of all osteogenic lesions encountered in the hand [ 5 – 7 ]. Although commonly considered as a bony lesion, enchondroma probably arises from aberrant cartilaginous foci, thus it should be classified as a cartilage tumor [ 5 , 7 ]. In the upper extremity the lesion is most commonly located in the proximal and middle phalanges, followed by the metacarpal bones and the distal radius.…”

BackgroundTumors of the upper extremity are common and usually benign. The most commonly diagnosed are ganglion cysts: specific, non-neoplastic swellings localized mostly around the wrist.ObjectiveThe objective of this retrospective study was to determine the proportion of various types of nonganglionic hand tumors operated on at the authors’ institution in 2014.MethodsA total of 246 patients, 141 women (57 %) and 105 men (43 %), with a mean age of 53 years and with tumorsof the upper extremity, were identified and treated in the authors’ institution in 2014.ResultsAlmost half of the lesions were localized in the fingers (n = 119, 48 %), followed by the wrist (n=49, 20 %), metacarpus (n = 40, 16 %), and more proximal parts (n = 38, 16 %). The time between the patients noticing the lesion and surgery was a mean of 4 years (range, 1 month to 30 years). The most common lesion was giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath (n = 58, 23 %), followed by lipoma (n = 40, 16 %), epidermal cyst (n = 23, 9 %), enchondroma (n=16, 6 %), hemangioma (n = 14, 6 %), fibroma (n = 11, (4 %), glomus tumor (n = 10, (4 %), and rheumatoid nodule (n = 10, (4 %). Two cases of malignant fibrosarcoma were identified incidentally.ConclusionA brief review of the literature is made referring to the data presented here.

“…Предоперационная химиотерапия позволяет уменьшить размер опухоли и создает воз-можность проведения органосохраняющей операции. Для замещения удаленной костной ткани используют различные искусственные или аллотрансплантаты, приживление которых может сопровождаться различными реакциями или полным отторжением [14][15][16][17]. В нашем наблюдении донорский дефект из крыла подвздошной кости после забора трансплантата нанес минимальный ущерб и не привел к нарушению функции таза.…”

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant neoplasm of bones in children; this tumor accounts for 50 to 80% of all skeletal sarcomas. Less often, osteosarcoma affects flat bones (scapula, ribs, bones of the skull and pelvis), bones of the foot, hand and spine. Description of the observation. A 13-year-old girl, 8 months before admission to the clinic, began to complain of pain in her right hand, six months later, a swelling appeared in this area. After radiography, which revealed a bone tumor of the III metacarpal bone, a trepanobiopsy with histological examination was performed. Conclusion: subperiosteal telangiectatic osteosarcoma G II. The child was admitted to the oncology department in November 2018. Before the operation, the girl underwent 4 courses of chemotherapy, as a result of which the tumor reduced in size, which made it possible to perform organ-preserving surgical treatment extirpation of the third metacarpal bone affected by the tumor, followed by autoplasty from the wing of the right iliac bone with fixation of the graft Kirschner needles. The postoperative period passed without complications. As a result of the operation, it was not only possible to radically remove the tumor, but also to preserve 3 fingers of the right (working) hand with good functionality. After surgery, the child received 5 courses of polychemotherapy and is currently in remission. Conclusion. The above observation demonstrates the possibility of performing organ-preserving surgeries using bone autoplasty for rare tumor lesions of the metacarpal bones. This method is more physiological in comparison with the use of allo- or artificial grafts.

“…Definitive diagnosis for all bone tumors, either benign or malignant, was established by tissue biopsy and histopathological (HP) examination, dictating therapeutic strategy [ 17 ]. Surgical removal using various techniques is the treatment of choice for bone tumors, although in some cases of benign asymptomatic tumors, they can be kept under observation, with regular follow-up.…”

Benign and malignant cartilaginous bone tumors of the hand are rare findings, however representing a particular pathology due to the capacity to induce significant functional impairment. Even though a large proportion of tumors of the hand and wrist are benign, these may present destructive characteristics, deforming adjacent structures until compromising function. The most appropriate surgical approach for most benign tumors is intralesional lesion resection. Malignant tumors often require wide excision, up to segment amputation to obtain tumor control. A five-year retrospective study was performed on patients admitted in our Clinic with benign cartilaginous tumors of the hand, in which 15 patients were admitted within this period, 10 presenting with enchondroma, four presenting with osteochondroma, and lastly one with chondromatosis. After clinical and imaging evaluation, all the aforementioned tumors were surgically removed. Definitive diagnosis for all bone tumors, either benign or malignant, was established by tissue biopsy and histopathological examination, dictating therapeutic strategy.
