We report a 45-year follow-up of a patient with Engelmann’s disease previously described in 1950, showing progression of the disease with unique involvement of the femoral capital epiphyses. The case is compared with others to add some information about the later stages of a disease which is not fully understood

Seven patients with osteoid osteoma of the proximal femur were treated by percutaneous excision of the nidus. The combination of preoperative localisation by tomography and intraoperative localisation by image intensifier resulted in a curative procedure with minimal bone resection in all cases, although a second operation was required in one patient.

We reviewed 53 cases of synovial chondromatosis and compared their clinical, radiological and pathological features. A radiological diagnosis is possible with increasing frequency as the disease progresses; in the early phase arthrography is helpful. Radiologically the disease may be classified as either extra-articular, or intra-articular; the intra-articular variety may be localised or generalised. Recurrence after operation was seen in 11.5% and was much the same after either synovectomy or simple removal of loose bodies. A protocol for treatment is proposed.
