Osteoid osteoma: two unusual case reports.
Osteoid osteoma is a relatively common bone tumor that is diagnosed easily but requires a high index of suspicion. The increasing percentage of sports-related injuries in podiatrists' offices, including stress fractures, may cause a doctor to overlook the less frequent pathologic fracture. Two case reports of runners with osteoid osteoma in anatomic areas of classic overuse syndrome are described. A review of the diagnosis and treatment follows in an effort to increase awareness that runners do suffer nonmechanical foot disorders.

Sinus tarsi syndrome: a postoperative analysis.
A more thorough understanding of sinus tarsi syndrome has been attempted by a postoperative survey of patients who have undergone sinus tarsi decompression. An analysis of 22 cases of sinus tarsi syndrome that were operated on between 1980 and 1984 at Kern Hospital was made. In each case a surgical procedure similar to that described by O'Connor and Brown was utilized. It was concluded that sinus tarsi syndrome is a distinct clinical entity--a sequela of ankle injury that is easily diagnosed. It responds well to surgical intervention and offers little chance of postoperative complication.
