Synovial chondromatosis is a, relativly rare disease, moreover the shoulder joint is very rarely affected. The authors report two cases of synovial chondromatosis of the glenohuneral Joint and biceps tendon sheath that were managed by arthrclscopic loose body removal and partial synovectomy. Excellent subjective and objective results were obtained.

Arthroscopic repair of an isolated teres minor tendon tear without associated shoulder joint pathology has not been reported in the literature. We report on a case of isolated teres minor tendon tear after trauma. The patient complained of severe shoulder pain and progressive limited range of motion 4 months after the injury. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a full-thickness tear of the teres minor tendon at its musculotendinous junction and arthroscopic repair was performed. At 2 years follow-up, satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes were observed with return to pre-injury level. Here, the authors report this case and provide a review of literature.

An intra-articular osteoid osteoma is a very rare cause of elbow pain, and its diagnosis and treatment remain challenging. Delayed diagnosis may lead to arthritic change of the joint. In this study, the authors present the occurrence of intra-articular osteoid osteoma in the right elbow of a 15-year-old male patient who presented with prolonged pain and limited motion owing to delayed diagnosis. After confirming the nidus of osteoid osteoma from radiographic evaluation, the lesion was completely removed arthroscopically. The patient presented a complete relief of symptoms and full range of motion. This is the first domestic report of successful arthroscopic treatment of an intra-articular osteoid osteoma of the elbow.

Pyogenic arthritis of the shoulder is very rare disease in infant. Early diagnosis and proper treatment are very important prognostic factors. We treated a 10-month-old infant who was suffering pyogenic arthritis of the shoulder by arthroscopic irrigation and synovectomy with direct inspection. Finally, satisfactory result was achieved without any major scar or complications.

The pretibial cyst is a very rare complication after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. It occurs whatever kind of graft choice or kind of graft fixation method at tibial side. It have been known such as graft necrosis at tibial side, extra-articular leakage of joint fluid through tibial tunnel, foreign body reaction due to breakdown of the bioabsorbable screw and incomplete incorporation of graft to bony tunnel as the cause of pretibial cyst. We experienced one case of pretibial cyst which had undergone ACL reconstruction with autogenous hamstring graft fixed with biodegradable interference screw. We report a rare case of pretibial cyst with literature review.

Acquired Hallux varus is defined radiographically by a negative metatarsophalangeal angle and clinically by adduction of the hallux on the first metatarsal and most commonly occurs after hallux valgus surgery. It's the prevalence has ranged from 2% to 17%. We report a case of hallux varus resulted from weakening of support of lateral soft tissue and resection of an excessive amount of the metatarsal head during a bunionectomy after initial correction of hallux valgus. We corrected the hallux varus deformity using transfer of extensor hallucis brevis tendon with reconstruction os lateral capsule.

The 4th and 5th metatarsocuboid joint arthritis causes moderate functional deficit during walking. It is difficult to obtain good results with conservative treatment. The arthrodesis of the affected joints can be a possible surgical option, but with a limited success. We report two cases of the 4th and 5th metatarsocuboid joint arthritis managed with anchovy tendon interposition arthroplaty.

Irreducible dislocation of great toe interphalangeal joint with incarcerated sesamoid is a rare condition, with only a few cases reported in literature. We describe two cases of dislocation of interphalangeal joint which were diagnosed by plain radiographs and three dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) and successfully treated with open reduction without excision of sesamoid through dorsal approach along with literature pertinent to this condition.
