Reports of bowing and pseudarthrosis of the humerus and clavicle are rare. Most patients with congenital pseudoarthrosis of the clavicle involving the right side and midportion of clavicle tended to heal better than congenital pseudoarthrosis of the tibia. We experienced a patient who had special features in terms of location, pseudoarthrosis pattern, and neurofibromatosis, and report on this case here.

Acute calcific tendinitis in the hand is a very rare disease. We experienced two cases of acute calcific tendinitis of the abductor pollicis brevis in the hand. Both of the patients experienced pain, edema and erythema on radial side of metacarpophalangeal joint of thumb. We successfully treated the condition with aspiration and steroid injection under the ultrasonographic examination and subsequently, applied the casts. An improvement of the symptoms was observed with good results. In the present work, we report these cases with appropriate review of literatures.

Redislocation of bipolar hemiarthroplasty is not a simple complication. When redislocation of bipolar hemiarthroplasty occurs, open reduction must be considered. Displacement of the polished tapered femoral stem could occur through the unwanted traction force during the reduction of the dislocated cemented hip arthroplasty as a complication. We experienced displacement of the polished tapered femoral stem during closed reduction of a redislocated cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty. We suggest that preoperative analysis for the cause and status of the dislocation is essential and open reduction should be considered if closed reduction is not thought to be suitable for a polished femoral stem.

From August 1998 to June 2005, we treated 5 children (7 cases) who suffered with traumatic dislocation of hip. The mean follow-up period was 4.1 years (range: 1~8 years). Acceptable reduction was achieved in all cases by first closed reduction. The complications were 2 redislocations in 2 patients, respectively. Closed reduction is an effective method for treating traumatic dislocation of the hip in children and long term follow-up should be performed for detecting late-onset complications such as avascular necrosis, growth disturbance and traumatic osteoarthritis.
