Case: Bizarre parosteal osteocartilaginous proliferation (BPOP) is rare, especially in the foot. To the best of our knowledge, multifocal BPOP has yet to be reported. We are reporting a case of a 40-year-old woman who presented with 4 bumps over her midfoot and toes. After staging studies, we excised the lesions, and histopathology confirmed BPOP. No local recurrence was observed at the end of the 2-year follow-up., Conclusion: BPOP should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multiple foot bumps, whether synchronous or metachronous, which may present multifocally in the foot., Competing Interests: Disclosure: The Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest forms are provided with the online version of the article (http://links.lww.com/JBJSCC/C383)., (Copyright © 2024 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Incorporated.)

Aims: Ilium is the most common site of pelvic Ewing's sarcoma (ES). Resection of the ilium and iliosacral joint causes pelvic disruption. However, the outcomes of resection and reconstruction are not well described. In this study, we report patients' outcomes after resection of the ilium and iliosacral ES and reconstruction with a tibial strut allograft., Methods: Medical files of 43 patients with ilium and iliosacral ES who underwent surgical resection and reconstruction with a tibial strut allograft between January 2010 and October 2021 were reviewed. The lesions were classified into four resection zones: I 1 , I 2 , I 3 , and I 4 , based on the extent of resection. Functional outcomes, oncological outcomes, and surgical complications for each resection zone were of interest. Functional outcomes were assessed using a Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score and Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS)., Results: The mean age of the patients was 17 years (SD 9.1). At a mean follow-up of 70.8 months (SD 50), the mean functional outcomes were 24.2 points (SD 6.3) for MSTS and 81 points (SD 11) for TESS. The mean MSTS and TESS scores were associated with the iliac resection zone (< 0.001). Nine patients (20.9%) had local recurrence. The recurrence was not associated with the zone of iliac resection (p = 0.324). The two-year disease-free survival of the patients was 69.4%. The mean time to graft union was longer in patients with the I 4 resection zone (p < 0.001). The complication rate was 34.9%, and nerve palsy (11.6%) was the most common. The rate of surgical complications was not associated with the resection zone., Conclusion: Reconstruction using tibial strut allograft is an efficient procedure after the resection of the ilium and iliosacral ES. Functional outcomes and complications of iliac ES depend on the resection zone, and inferior outcomes could be generally expected when more segments of the pelvic ring are resected, even if it is reconstructed., Competing Interests: The authors confirm that they have no conflicts of interest to disclose., (© 2024 Mirzaei et al.)
