Reports described clinical presentation to range from simple anterolateral bowing of tibia to frank pseudarthrosis 3 .In this series 25 out of 37(60%) presented with established pseudarthrosis, while 10 out of 37(27%) presented with bowing. [sudjms.net]

Congenital pseudoarthrosis of the clavicle is a rare condition, which typically presents as an isolated anatomical variant. Clinical presentation Usually presents as a midclavicular swelling in the neonate or young child 1. [radiopaedia.org]

All patients presented signs of neurofibromatosis as café-au-lait stains and family history. Patients with CPF affecting only the radius presented deformity similar to congenital radial club hand. [meeting.handsurgery.org]

  • Chills

    The history of the disease revealed that the child initially presented with fever and chills. He was then treated for malaria for a few days, as it is common in endemic areas. [dovepress.com]

  • Recurrent Fractures

    However, surgical intervention is required in case of non-union and recurrent fractures. The surgical therapy consists of resection of the diseased segment and bone grafting, followed by internal or external fixation [ 3 ]. [e-aps.org]

  • Long Legs

    The Ilizarov fixator was then removed and replaced by a long-leg synthetic cast for an additional 6 weeks to prevent early fracture. The consolidation of the regenerate bone was achieved after 245 days. [dovepress.com]

    The wound was closed in layers and a long leg splint was applied. Three months later, no abnormal changes were noted in X-ray imaging and no clinical wounds were observed ( Figs. 4, 5 ). [e-aps.org]

  • Flexion Contracture

    Early physiotherapy was prescribed, and the boy was monitored regularly to prevent a flexion contracture or stiff knee. [dovepress.com]

  • Withdrawn

    They may become isolated and withdrawn because they feel different from others. They may have emotional and/or social pain concerning their appearance. They may experience fear of the complications and they may even wonder whether to have children. [orthoinfo.aaos.org]

  • Walking Delay

    As the child is not operated before he reaches a certain age, wearing a protective brace before the child has begun walking delays the fracture in bowing and limits the deformity if pseudarthrosis is already present. [boneandspine.com]

This treatment avoids risking injury to the healthy contralateral leg. Additionally, for treatments that do not achieve satisfactory results, other treatment methods are not excluded. [journals.lww.com]

Intramedullary stabilization, free vascularized fibula, and Ilizarov external fixation are among the most frequently used methods of treatment. In addition, bone morphogenetic protein recently has shown promise. [experts.umich.edu]

The prognosis is good if the lesion is located only on the fibula, an extension to the tibia has a prognosis similar to type II, Type VI Associated with an intraosseous fibroma or a schwannoma. [boneandspine.com]

Type III cases have a better prognosis. The gross pathology is a bone cyst, and the microscopic findings resemble fibrous dysplasia. After surgical treatment, generally, the older the child the better the prognosis. [scienceopen.com]

The prognosis depends on the aggressiveness and treatment of the intraosseous lesion. [orthopedicnotes.blogspot.com]

Its etiology remains unclear. Although several classification systems have been proposed, none provides specific guidelines for management. Treatment remains challenging. The goal is to obtain and maintain union while minimizing deformity. [experts.umich.edu]
