Hereditary multiple exostoses and solitary osteochondroma associated with growth hormone deficiency: to treat or not to treat? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Osteochondroma generally occurs as a single lesion and it is not a heritable disease. When two or more osteochondroma are present, this condition represents a genetic disorder named hereditary multiple exostoses (HME).

Mutations in the heparan sulfate backbone elongating enzymes EXT1 and EXT2 have no major effect on endothelial glycocalyx and the glomerular filtration barrier [PDF]
In this study, the effect of heterozygous germline mutations in the heparan sulfate (HS) glycosaminoglycan chain co-polymerases EXT1 and EXT2 on glomerular barrier function and the endothelial glycocalyx in humans is investigated.

A 40‐Year‐Old Male Presenting with Hereditary Multiple Exostosis: Management and Considerations
Hereditary multiple exostosis is a rare condition in which numerous benign osteochondromas form throughout the body, typically in areas of high bone turnover such as the metaphyseal plates of long bones. While many of these lesions remain clinically asymptomatic, other growth locations can lead to excruciating pain, limit a joint’s range of motion, and

Low‐Grade Chondrosarcoma of the Proximal Phalanx: A Rare Presentation
Case. Chondrosarcomas are the second most common primary malignant sarcoma of the bone, though it is overall a rare tumor. Our case presents a 36‐year‐old Caucasian male who complained of an enlarging mass at his third finger MCP joint. After assessing the full clinical scenario, it was determined that wide excision with ray resection would provide the

Two cases of asymptomatic rib exostosis treated by prophylactic surgical excision
Exostosis is one of the most common benign bone lesions. It could be a solitary lesion or multiple lesions presented as part of HME. This condition often affects the metaphyseal region of long bones, including femur, tibia, humerus and ribs.

Difficulties of Management of Multiple Synchronous Bone Tumors in Li‐Fraumeni Syndrome
Li‐Fraumeni syndrome is a rare inherited disease characterized by the early onset of multiple primary malignant tumors. Sarcomas account for more than 30% of all malignant tumors occurring at pediatric age. Furthermore, it was shown that the rates of second cancer were higher in childhood cancer survivors.
