We experienced a case of soft tissue osteochondroma in the foot. The 43-years-old male was complained palpable mass and mild pain at the heel for 3 years. The plain radiograpy revealed a bony mass without connection of neighbor bone in the heel. The osteochondroma in the soft tissue is rare benign tumor. The mass was removed en bloc. The gross and histologic findings were consistent with osteochondroma. The differential diagnosis includes myositis ossificans, tumoral calcinosis, synovial chondromatosis, soft tissue osteochondroma, and true osteochondroma which arises from bone. The symptom was improved. After postoperative 1 year, recurrence was not.

Villonodular synovitis, also called pigmented villonodular synovitis, is the benign lesion with the characteristic of locally aggressive proliferation of mononuclear histiocyte and giant cell. Typically it involves single joint, especially about 80% of disease occurs in the knee joint. Villonodular synovitis of the temporomandibular joint is very rare disease. Differential diagnosis includes synovial chondromatosis and tumors of the temporomandibular joint. Optimal treatment consists of complete excision of the mass and removal of the synovium including adjacent affected bony structures. This is a case report of villonodular synovitis developed in the temporomandibular joint.

We report a case of intramuscular hemangioma in the subscapularis muscle and the resulting impairment of shoulder function in an adult patient. A nineteen-year-old female complained of shoulder pain and the development of a mass in the absence of previous trauma. Physical examinations, including lift-off and belly-press tests, showed abnormality. X-ray showed multiple calcifications in the front of the scapula. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a soft-tissue mass occupying almost the entire intramuscular portion of the subscapularis muscle. An arthroscopic examination excluded the possibility of a joint invasion, after which the entire mass was successfully removed by open excision. The displacement of the subscapularis by the mass was relieved after the surgery. Pathological diagnosis of the tissue confirmed a cavernous hemangioma. Both shoulder pain and function was improved after operation. There was no evidence of recurrence even at the 2-year follow-up. Rare forms of hemangioma adjacent to the shoulder joint could be successfully managed with surgical excision. Differential diagnosis, such as synovial chondromatosis, pigmented villo-nodular synovitis, and malignant sarcoma, should also be considered.

다발성 미립체는 만성 류마토이드 관절염이나 만성 점액낭염의 합병증으로 드물게 발생하는 질환으로 어떤 기저 질환 없이도 발생할 수 있다. 활막 연골종증과 유사하기 때문에 수술 전 정확한 진단을 위해 단순 방사선과 자기 공명 영상 소견이 필요한 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 우 견관절의 통증과 운동 제한을 주소로 내원한 37세 남자에서 견봉하 점액낭에 점액낭염을 동반한 다량의 미립체를 발견하고 관절경적으로 치료 후 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.

Nodular fasciitis (NF) is a benign myofibroblastic proliferation that grows very rapidly, mimicking a sarcoma on imaging. It is treated by local excision, and recurrence has been reported in only a few cases, even when excised incompletely. The most prevalent diagnoses of temporomandibular joint(TMJ) masses include synovial chondromatosis, pigmented villonodular synovitis, and sarcomas. Cases of NF in the TMJ are extremely rare, and only 3 cases have been reported to date. Due to its destructive features and rarity, NF has often been misdiagnosed as a more aggressive lesion, which could expose patients to unnecessary and invasive treatment approaches beyond repair. This report presents a case of NF in the TMJ, focusing on various imaging features, along with a literature review aiming to determine the hallmark features of NF in the TMJ and highlight the diagnostic challenges.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to present our clinical results after surgical treatment in tarsal tunnel syndrome due to space occupying lesions. Material and Methods: We performed surgical decompression for tarsal tunnel syndrome in 20 patients from July 2004 to February 2007. Out of them, thirteen cases were due to space occupying lesions around the tarsal tunnel. The average age at operation was 51.3 years old and the duration from symptom onset to surgery was 16.5 months. The operation included removal of space occupying lesions and tarsal tunnel decompression. The clinical parameters were pain visual analogue scale (VAS), AOFAS scale, and subjective satisfaction. Results: The ganglion cysts were the most frequent causes (ten cases) and synovial chondromatosis in 1 case, neurofibroma in 1 case, talocalcaneal coalition in 1 case. The average follow-up duration was 14.5 months. The AOFAS scale showed significant improvement from 77.8 to 92.7. The average VAS decreased from 6.4 to 2.2. Seven out of thirteen patients were satisfied with the results. The excellent results were shown in six patients, the good results in one patient, the fair result in three patients and the unsatisfactory results in three patients. Conclusion: Favorable results could be obtained in patients with known etiology. But not all cases with surgical decompression of space occupying lesions showed satisfactory results. We assume that the clinical results were related to the multiple factors, not only well performed surgery but also age, size lesions and duration of symptoms, ect.

견봉하 및 삼각근하 만성 점액낭염에 발생한 다발성 쌀소체의 치료에 대해 고찰하였다. 다발성 쌀소체의 형성은 혈청음성의 류마티스 관절염 혹은 결핵과 자주 연관된 만성 점액낭염의 합병증으로 형성된다. 또한 이것은 윤활막 뼈연골종증과 영상학적 및 임상적으로 비슷한 양상을 보인다. 저자들은 만성 삼각근하 및 견봉하 점액낭염에 발생한 다발성 쌀소체가 있어 관혈적 수술을 통해 제거한 44세 남자를 증례 보고하고자 한다. 제거술을 시행한 지 16개월 후 견관절의 운동 범위 및 근력은 정상 범위에 있었고 기능도 만족스러웠다. 일반 촬영 및 초음파 검사에서 쌀소체의 재발은 없었다. 견봉하 및 삼각근하 만성 점액낭염에 발생한 다발성 쌀소체는 점액낭을 포함한 관혈적 절제술에 의해 성공적으로 치료 될 수 있었다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the types and frequency of the various incidental findings (IFs) on magnetic resonance images (MRI) taken from the patients with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) symptoms. Materials and Methods: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) MRI taken from 1,013 patients with TMD symptoms were evaluated retrospectively. IF was defined as imaging features that were accidentally or unexpectedly found, rather than degenerative bony changes of TMJ complex or disc derangement. They were classified into two groups as TMJ site-specific findings and unexpected findings at other regions. The frequency of the sub groups was analyzed. Result: A total of 26 (2.57%) cases with IFs were classified into 13 cases with TMJ site-specific findings and 13 cases with unexpected findings at other region. TMJ site-specific findings included synovial chondromatosis in 6 cases, synovial cyst in 6 cases and osteochondroma in one case. Unexpected findings included salivary gland tumor in 3 cases, developmental cyst in 3 cases, vascular malformation in 2 cases, mastoiditis in 4 cases and sialadenitis on parotid gland in one case. Conclusion: When diagnosing TMD through TMJ MRI, clinicians should carefully read the image, considering the possibility of IFs because TMJ MRI can provide pathologic information in TMJ region and other oral and maxillofacial region.
