Obscurin is a giant protein that coordinates diverse aspects of striated muscle physiology. Obscurin immunoglobulin domains 58/59 (Ig58/59) associate with essential sarcomeric and Ca2+ cycling proteins. To explore the pathophysiological significance of Ig58/59, we generated the Obscn-ΔIg58/59 mouse model, expressing obscurin constitutively lacking Ig58/59.

Tumoral calcinosis predominantly affects young males and is typically found around major joints, such as the shoulder, elbow, hip, ankle, and wrist.

Introduction: Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) ranks among the most prevalent locally aggressive tumor lesions, displaying a diverse range of biological behaviors. Recurrence of GCTB is well-documented, often attributed to microscopic tumour remnants remaining after intralesional curettage, with increased concern when infection occurs postoperatively. Studies suggest the limited effectiveness of adjuvants in preventing giant cell tumour recurrence, emphasizing the necessity of complete removal of malignant cells.

About equal percentages of men and women are often affected, and it typically affects young individuals. The most typical sites of PVNS are the knee and ankle, making PVNS of the wrist a rare presentation.
