Radiation induced fracture of the scapula.

A case of radiation induced osteonecrosis resulting in a fracture of the scapula in a 76-yr-old female patient with a history of breast carcinoma is presented. Diagnostic imaging, laboratory recommendations and clinical findings are discussed along with an algorithm for the safe management of patients with a history of cancer and musculoskeletal complaints. This case demonstrates the necessity of a thorough investigation of musculoskeletal complaints in patients with previous bone-seeking carcinomas.

Omovertebral bone.

A case of unilateral Sprengel's deformity with an associated omovertebral bone is presented. A review of proposed mechanisms of development is included in the discussion of this rare anomaly. The condition is largely one of cosmetic deformity rather than signs and symptoms. The significance of identifying it's presence lies in uncovering the many less obvious, but more potentially serious, anomalies that may be associated with it. Conservative management is discussed.
