          Abstract

          Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) of the talus is an extremely rare lesion; less than 20 cases have been reported in PubMed till 2012. We report a primary ABC of the talus in a 20-year-old male that was managed by extended intralesional curettage with phenol as an adjuvant and autologous cancellous iliac crest bone grafting. The patient had excellent functional outcome and there was no recurrence at 2 years of follow-up.

          Giant cell tumour of talar body.

          Giant cell tumour (osteoclastoma) of talar bone is a rare entity and is seen more commonly in the third decade of life. We report this disease entity in a 17-years-old girl. The patient presented with painful swelling of the left ankle with an osteolytic lesion in the talus on conventional radiographs. Intralesional curettage and autologous bone grafting was performed following which patient's pain and swelling disappeared. Complete range of movement at the ankle joint was regained with minimal restriction at the subtalar joint. There is no evidence of relapse at six months follow up.

            Giant cell tumor of talus: a case report

            Giant cell tumor of talus is a rare entity. In contrast to GCT of long bones, most cases occur in a younger age group and tend to be multicentric. The authors report a case of GCT in a 19 year old boy which had led to extensive destruction of the talus. In view of the extensive involvement, total talectomy along with tibio – calcaneal arthrodesis was performed. At 6 months of followup, the patient had a painless and well arthrodesed ankle. There was no evidence of recurrence at 18 months of followup.

              [Tumors of the footbones- a report from the Hamburg Bone Tumor Registry].

              Aim of the present study was a systematic examination of the tumors of the foot registered in the Hamburg Bone Tumor Registry regarding age, sex, location, diagnosis and morphological characteristics. The registry files and histological specimens of 367 tumors and tumor-like lesions of the foot were reviewed. Males were more frequently affected (ratio 4 : 3). Some 20.4 % of all mass forming tumors were malignant. Cartilage tumors (146 cases), cystic (132 cases) and osteoblastic lesions (33 cases) were most common. Several tumors showed a strong predilection for certain parts of the foot. In the calcaneus a solitary bone cyst was the most common lesion. Lesions in the talus and metatarsals with a similar morphology mostly represented intraosseous ganglion cysts. Other tumors in the calcaneus were mainly cartilaginous. Besides chondroblastoma, chondrosarcoma was regularly diagnosed. Chondroma was extremely rare at this site. Contrary to that chondroma was regularly found at the metatarsal and phalangeal bones, it was 4 times more common than chondrosarcoma. An even distribution showed aneurysmal bone cysts and osteoidosteoma. Very rare lesions were fibrous dysplasia, eosinophilic granuloma and intraosseous lipoma. The knowledge of the distribution of tumors in the foot is important for an exact differential diagnosis and thereby for biopsy planning, diagnosis and therapy.
