Congenital bowing of the ulna and aggressive fibromatosis.

The association of skeletal anomalies and aggressive fibromatosis has been documented. Isolated bowing of the ulna is rare, yet its occurrence, particularly in conjunction with congenital dislocation of the radial head, has been documented. This article presents two cases of ulnar bowing in which the patients subsequently developed aggressive fibromatosis. We feel that aggressive fibromatosis may be a latent manifestation of congenital bowing of the ulna. The course of the disease appears to be of an aggressive nature, and patients who present with bowing of the ulna should be followed for the potential development of this disease.

The use of CT scan in the evaluation of non-popliteal synovial cysts about the knee.

We investigated the diagnostic approach to non-popliteal synovial cysts about the knee. Included were all cases that occurred at the Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center in the past 5 years. The five patients all presented with a mass about the knee. The history and physical exam placed synovial cyst high on all five differential lists. All patients had a CT scan, and the CT failed to identify the cystic nature of the mass in any of them. We conclude that the CT scan is not useful in the evaluation of suspected non-popliteal synovial cysts about the knee.
