Abstract:
[Objective]To report the results of treatment of enchondroma of the hand with curettage and porous bioceramic bone grafting. [Methods]Fifteen patients with digital enchondroma were reviewed.The average follow-up period was 30 months.The final function and radiographic appearance of the surgically treated digits were analyzed.[Results]At final evaluation the bony incorporation was uneventful in all patients.The mean functional Muskuloskeletal Tumor Society Score was 29.Radiographs showed apparent partial absorption of bioceramic bone in only two patients.All digits achieved full range of motion after surgery.No complication was found.[Conclusion]Porous bioceramic bone is safe and effective as a bone-filling substance after curettage of enchondroma of the hand.
