Extractions: Francesco Guerreschi, MD, Lecco, ITALY Seventeen limb segments representing eight femora, six tibia and three humeri in nine patients with Ollier's disease were treated using the Ilizarov method. The mean lengthening achieved was 7.0 cm in the femur, 6.8 cm in the tibia and 7.5 cm in the humerus. The average duration of treatment was 7.5 months. Equal limb length was achieved in six of seven lower limbs. Multiplanar angular deformities were corrected in all the limb segments. With a mean follow-up of 4.3 years, the tissue transformation and corrections achieved are observed to be maintained. The corticotomy and tissue manipulation through the sites of the lesions achieved angular correction and lengthening and tissue transformation of the lesions. Moderator(s):Henry J.

Extractions: Received: 13 November 1998 Abstract Among patients with enchondromatosis, those with Ollier's disease are usually considered to be at a lower risk for extra-osseous malignancy than those with Maffucci's disease. However, several reports suggest that Ollier's disease may also be associated with gliomas. We report here the youngest patient in the literature (16 years) to be detected with a brain tumor and Ollier's disease. This is also the first case with diffuse brain stem involvement. Thus, counselling of patients with Ollier's disease may become more difficult than initially thought. Key words Article in PDF format (104 KB) Online publication: May 17, 1999

Ollier's disease (enchondromatosis) is a nonhereditary disorder of mesodermal dysplasia. It is characterized by the presence of multiple enchondromas that typically affect the metaphyseal ends of bones. The association of Ollier's disease with adjacent fibromatosis has, to our knowledge, not been previously described. We report a case of Ollier's disease in association with soft tissue fibromatosis adjacent to the involved upper arm. Key words.

References Chondrosarcoma secondary to enchondroma is a primary neoplasm of cartilaginous histogenesis arising from a pre-existing benign enchondroma. Age: 30 - 50 Site: The most common precursor is multiple enchondroma or Ollier's disease. This phenomenon is rare in solitary enchondroma or synovial chondromatosis. The patient presents with pain at the site of a previously-painless enchondroma. Slow, displacing growth is characteristic of this tumor with very late transition to a high-grade lesion and risk of metastasis. The survival rate is excellent with adequate treatment prior to transition. On radiograph, there is an expanding, radiolucent zone surrounding a calcified enchondroma with endosteal scalloping and periosteal, cortical thickening. [X-Ray] This radiograph shows the original enchondroma at first presentation. The patient was asymptomatic at this time. [X-Ray] This radiograph was made fourteen years later when the patient presented with a secondary chondrosarcoma.

Extractions: Home Shrine Shriners Hospitals Hospital Directory ... Archives January 2001 Daniel Bowen, a 22-year-old resident of League City, Texas, enjoys a normal family life after growing up with a condition called Ollier's disease, which caused a significant leg length discrepancy in his right leg. At 5 feet 6 1/2 inches, Daniel Bowen has no problem standing his ground when it comes to his Great Dane, Brutus. After observing him throughout the following day, they realized that Daniel skipped everywhere he went. Daniel's parents and grandparents finally asked him to simply walk across the room, and that's when they noticed that Daniel limped when he walked. After a closer look at his legs, they found that his right leg was shorter then his left leg. "After discovering my lower limb length discrepancy, my parents took me to several doctors before I was finally diagnosed with Ollier's Disease," explained Daniel. Ollier's disease is a non-hereditary congenital defect (present from birth) that causes tumors in the bones of usually just one extremity, affecting not only the long bones, but also those of the foot. The tumors affect the growth plates, which over time causes a lower limb length discrepancy.

Abstract Multiple enchondromatosis may cause devastating disfigurement and even adversely affect the growth and function of an extremity. Radiographs show typical changes and are generally diagnostic. Surgical intervention is usually warranted and should be sought as soon as the diagnosis is suspected. Approximately 50% of cases of untreated multiple enchondromas undergo malignant sarcomatous transformation. Int Pediatr. 2002;17(4):231-232. Full Article in PDF

Extractions: Figure 2: Corresponding macro-slice showing a lobular architecture, and endosteal cortical thinning. Cytonucle ar appearance can be more readily appreciated in figure 3 Classification Note approximately 90% of chondrosarcomas are histologically of the conventional type; in addition to conventional chondrosarcoma, some rare variants with distinctive microscopic and clinical features are discerned: clear cell chondrosarcoma (1%), mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (2%), juxtacortical chondrosarcoma (2%) and extra-skeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (5%). Furthermore, dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is a relatively rare high grade sarcoma next to a low-grade conventional malignant cartilage-forming tumor, comprising 6-10% of all chondrosarcomas. Conventional chondrosarcomas can be categorized according to their location in bone. The majority of chondrosarcomas (75%) are located centrally within the medullary cavity (central chondrosarcoma), a small percentage of which arise within a preexisting benign precursor (enchondroma). While most enchondromas are solitary, patients with Ollier's disease and Maffucci's syndrome demonstrate multiple enchondromas.A minority (15%) of chondrosarcomas develops from the surface of bone (peripheral chondrosarcoma) as a result of malignant transformation within the cartilaginous cap of a solitary or hereditary pre-existent osteochondroma.
