“…Therefore, patients with multiple osteochondromas should receive yearly surveillance by detailed clinical examination and radiological imaging. Early detection results in better prognosis and less aggressive surgical intervention [1,3,13]. X-ray, CT, and MR can all be used for surveillance and also for the diagnosis of the osteochondromas.…”

“…Osteochondromas are benign cartilage capped osseous tumors representing 10% of all bone tumors [1,2]. Osteochondromas usually present during the first two decades and are comparatively more prevalent in males, with male to female ratio 1.5:1 [1]. Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is an autosomal dominant heterogeneous disorder and is diagnosed radiographically by the presence of two or more than two osteochondromas and is associated with mutation of tumor suppressor genes [3].…”

Hereditary multiple osteochondromas (HMO) is an autosomal dominant disease diagnosed by the presence of two or more than two osteochondromas on radiographs. The majority of cases are asymptomatic. The presence of bony growth, pain, and compression of the surrounding structure are the usual presentations. Malignant transformation into chondrosarcoma is the most feared complication. A rapid increase in size, recurrence after the surgical excision, and infiltrating mass may suggest the conversion into chondrosarcoma. Radiological imaging helps in diagnosing malignant transformation. MRI is the investigation of choice to exclude cancer. We hereby present a case of multiple osteochondromas with suspected malignant transformation due to rapidly increasing painful osseous swelling.

Of course, in conclusion, the above are a far cry from the present mundane but documentable data!…”

Surgical therapy remains the primary and most effective intervention for the groin regional lymph node basin in melanoma. Accordingly, this study sought to present its parameters from a developing community. Of the 34 cases reviewed, the male/female ratio was equal, the 51-60 years age group preponderated as did left sided lesions. Moreover, the excised lesions varied from 2 to 13 cm (mean 7 cm). Whereas 25 patients were operated on at Enugu, the capital city of the Region, up to 9 other towns were involved, thereby indicating that a central laboratory benefits distant hospitals unlike the UK, debate on the issue..

Bunionette is a deformity that presents in a lateral prominence of the fifth metatarsal head, resulting in a callus on the plantar side or the lateral side. It has a higher frequency in female subjects than in male subjects; research has shown that it is three to six times higher in females than in males [1]. There is the absence of exostosis of the metatarsal head, just as in hallux valgus, but instead lateral migration, at times linked with a morphologic abnormality. M.J. Coughlin clearly distinguished the three types of bunionettes based on the work of H.L. Du Vries, with type 1 associated with a prominent lateral condyle and an increased fifth metatarsal head volume (16 -33%); type 2 characterized by bow deformity causing the lateral condyle to become significantly prominent (10%); while type 3 is characterized by a high fourth metatarsal-fifth metatarsal angle without any distal fifth metatarsal deformity (57 -74%) [2,3]. There may be congenital varus overlap of the fifth toe, in supraductus or infraductus. Osteochondromas are very common bone tumors with a 30 -40% incidence rate [4]. These tumors are benign and are believed to be caused by a perichondral congenital defect [4]. The lesions occur close to the growth plates of long bones and in most cases,
