✦ Synopsis


THE subject of tumours of tendons and tendon sheaths is of interest owing t o the rarity of the tumours. Observations have been made on them since 1860, and in studying the work of these observers one cannot help noticing that the greater part of it has been done by French and German surgeons and pathologists.

TUMOURS OF TENDONS.

Only a few words can be said of tumours of tendons. Primary tumours are very rare and possibly do not occur a t all. I can find no trace of a case reported, and in 1907 OmbrCdannel agreed with this statement. He was not satisfied that the fibromata and sarcomata described originated in the tendon, but he acknowledged the possibility of osteomata occurring. This condition he compares to myositis ossificans. Tendons, of course, are not uncommonly invaded by direct spread of malignant tumours which have commenced in the bone or connective tissue in their neighbourhood.

Our attention is thus practically confined to the tendon sheath.

Giant-celled myeloma.

Two varieties are recognized.
