Clinicoradiological diagnosis of benign osteoblastoma of the spine in children.
Three cases of benign osteoblastoma of the spine in children are reported, diagnosed on the basis of clinicoradiological findings and confirmed at surgery and by histopathology. The authors feel that in all cases of painful scoliosis and painful torticollis, a careful search should be made for any suspicious area of sclerosis, especially in the posterior elements of the vertebrae, and all the positive or suspected cases should undergo nuclear bone scanning. All patients whose bone scan is positive should be subjected to computed tomography for differential diagnosis between osteoid osteoma and benign osteoblastoma.

Spinal brucellosis.
Twenty-four cases of spinal brucellosis are described. We believe that it is possible to distinguish this condition from spinal tuberculosis on the basis of the clinical and radiological findings.

Clubfoot with supernumerary soleus muscle. Report of 2 cases.
In 2 cases of clubfoot with severe and rigid varus deformity, an accessory soleus muscle with attachment on the medial side of the calcaneus was found. After cutting the distal attachment of this muscle, the deformity diminished. The accessory soleus muscle is not interpreted as the primary cause of the clubfoot, but as a highly contributing cause to the rigid varus deformity.
