The authors studied the files of 440 patients with low back pain over a period of 8 years. The constant absence of signs of lumbar sciatica led them to study the aetiology of such a pain. Pain in the ilio-lumbar ligament is due to the development of a syndesmo-periostitis (syndesmos = ligament) from the ligamentis continual traction on the postero-medial iliac crest. This is a discrete clinical entity described by the term "ilio-lumbar syndrome".

Dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica is a rare non-hereditary epiphyseal disease that mimics synovial chondromatosis of the joints. The disease mainly targets long bones of the lower extremities and tarsal bones. We report one such case manifesting in the lateral tibia of a 13-year-old boy. He presented with a 7-month history of pain and a bony mass (3x4 cm) at the right ankle. The mass restricted ankle dorsiflexion over the lateral malleolar area. It was ossific with a lobulated appearance and reached the marrow with the underlying epiphysis and adjacent bones. The mass was excised completely from the epiphysis. The detached syndesmos was sutured anatomically.
