osteochondroma/headache

We reported a case of a 42-year-old man with a 3-year history of headache due to a spinal osteochondroma. Repeated neurological evaluation, including EEG studies and CT of the cerebrum, revealed no pathology. More recently the patient presented with persistent headache and a slight limitation of

A 17-year-old girl was admitted with a 1-year history of right-sided headaches and unilateral ptosis for 6 months. She was diagnosed with Horner's syndrome. Ultrasound and CT scan demonstrated an osteochondroma of the posterosuperior aspect of the medial clavicle compressing adjacent structures,

BACKGROUND Intracranial osteochondromas are uncommon. The majority of lesions arise from the base of the skull or from bones developed by endochondral ossification. A minority of cases are attached to the falxcerebri in the fronto parietal location. METHODS We report a case of a giant intracranial

A case of a huge intracranial frontoparietal osteochondroma in a 20-year-old man is reported. The presenting symptoms were headache, vomiting, and blurred vision. Apart from papilledema, no other abnormal neurological signs were present. A specific preoperative diagnosis could not be reached from

Osteochondroma is a common benign tumor of the axial skeleton, especially in the distal metaphysis of the femur and the proximal metaphysis of the tibia, that can occur on the facial skeleton (albeit rarely). Osteochondroma is differentiated from chondroma, osteochondromatosis and osteoma.

A 29-year-old man presented with a primary sellar turcica osteochondroma manifesting as intratumoral hemorrhage mimicking pituitary apoplexy. The patient suffered sudden onset of headache concomitant with vision loss in the left eye. Radiography and computed tomography detected destruction and

Intracranial chondromas are uncommon benign lesions usually attached to dura and located over the convexity of the skull. Osteochondromas are even rarer and additionally contain a benign bony component. Both lesions are reportedly difficult to distinguish from meningiomas on pre-operative

There are many temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions that can cause pain, TMJ and jaw dysfunction, and disability. The most common of these conditions include: (1) articular disk dislocation; (2) reactive arthritis; (3) adolescent internal condylar resorption; (4) condylar hyperplasia; (5)

BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to analyse a series of patients suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) chondromatosis treated in 2 departments of stomatology and maxillofacial surgery (University hospitals of the Conception in Marseille and of Caen) and to make a general review of this

OBJECTIVE Atlantoaxial tumors account for a substantial proportion of primary bone tumors in children. Before resection, surgeons must consider the complex regional anatomy, the potential for neurological compromise, craniocervical instability, and the question of tumor resectability in a growing
