A broad spectrum of congenital anomalies, disorders, and malformations have musculoskeletal manifestations. Recognition and accurate identification of characteristic findings on plain radiographs can be challenging, especially when dealing with rare or unusual diagnoses. The purpose of this exhbit is to expose radiologists to a series of stimulating and fun cases in order to help improve the radiologist’s accuracy when facing congenital musculoskeletal lesions.
The cases will be presented in a quiz format. Key findings and pertinent differential diagnostic points will be highlighted in the discussion of each case. The list of cases includes:
Chondrodysplasia punctata
Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia
Neurofibromatosis
Nail-Patella syndrome
Sprengel's deformity
Osteopoikilosis
Club feet
Melorheostosis
Calcaneonavicular coalition
Pseudoarthrosis
Multiple hereditary exostosis
