Hereditary Multiple Exostoses—A Review of the Molecular Background, Diagnostics, and Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HMEs) syndrome, also known as multiple osteochondromas, represents a rare and severe human skeletal disorder. The disease is characterized by multiple benign cartilage-capped bony outgrowths, termed exostoses or ...

Osteoblastic Osteosarcoma Arising beneath an Osteochondroma in an 11‐Year‐Old Male with Multiple Hereditary Exostoses

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Introduction. Multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of multiple skeletal deformities. They are painless slow‐growing lesions. Malignant transformation tends to occur later in adulthood and has only been seen in 1–5% of patients. Objective.

The Pathophysiological Functions of Heparanases: From Evolution, Structural and Tissue‐Specific Perspectives

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 17, 15 September 2025.
Heparanase 1 (HPSE1) and Heparanase 2 (HPSE2) exhibit opposing expression patterns and functions in pathological contexts, such as cancer. Here, we describe their specific expression in immune cells and their implications in skin diseases. Although they are structurally similar and considered to be ‘cousins’, we found no common ancestor and that HPSE2 ...

Secondary Chondrosarcoma Presenting with Symptoms Similar to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is caused by heterogeneous factors that compress the brachial plexus and subclavian artery; tumor is rarely a cause of TOS. Here, we present the case of a 26‐year‐old man with secondary chondrosarcoma arising from osteochondroma of the left clavicle causing TOS, with a direct compression of the brachial plexus and ...

Minimally‐invasive excision of a scapular osteochondroma on the ventral surface: A case report and literature review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2024.
Key Clinical Message Osteochondroma on the ventral scapula is clinically rare and can incur pseudo‐winged scapula and snapping syndrome if not treated. In this regard, surgical excision is suggested, if possible, with a minimally invasive approach to accelerate physical recovery. Abstract Osteochondroma is a common benign bone tumor, characterized by a

Endoscopically Assisted Resection of a Rare Mass: Intra‐Articular Osteochondroma of Shoulder Originated from Scapula

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumors which are mostly seen in the metaphysis of distal femur, proximal tibia, and proximal humerus. As arising from flat bones such as scapula is a rare case, intra‐articular osteochondroma is also rare. When the literature is searched it appeared that the scapula and shoulder joint are an uncommon site
