The use of free fibula-flexor hallucis longus osteomuscular flap for calcaneal reconstruction after partial calcanectomy for the chronic osteomyelitis: A case report.

Introduction: Calcaneal osteomyelitis poses a tough challenge for any reconstructive surgeon. The eradication of the infection and the reconstruction of the defect are the main goals of treatment.

Presentation Of Case: We present the case of a 53-year-old male with chronic calcaneal osteomyelitis.

Solitary Bone Plasmacytoma of the Pelvis: A Rare Tumor.

Solitary bone plasmacytomas are part of a wide range of monoclonal neoplasms that share a common progenitor in the B lymphocyte lineage. In their particular case, a single bone lesion is found, most frequently on the axial skeleton, having evidence of no other osteolytic lesions or systemic involvement. Diagnosis can sometimes prove to be difficult as they are rare tumors, occurring in 3 to 5% (up to 10% in some series) of patients with plasma cell neoplasms, with important considerations regarding the differential diagnosis.
