Understanding leg function in multiple osteochondromas
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study aims to understand how multiple osteochondromas (bony growths that can form near joints) affect walking and leg function. It compares people with the condition to healthy volunteers, using motion analysis and imaging.

This research looks at surgery records from patients who had multiple osteochondromas (benign bone tumors) treated at a major orthopedic hospital. The study aims to understand what surgical approaches work best for this condition.
This study is a registry that collects information about people with multiple osteochondromas (extra bone/cartilage growths). It may help researchers better understand the condition and improve future care, even if no treatment is given.
This study watches how people with certain muscle or nerve diseases walk over time. It may help doctors understand changes in walking patterns and is open to adults who can walk and have a genetic diagnosis of a neuromuscular condition.
This study gathers information on children with leg bone or muscle problems (from birth or later) to better understand their conditions. It may help improve future care for kids with similar issues.
This study looks at how your knee joint works when you have pain or limited function. It uses MRI and electrical stimulation to learn more about cartilage and meniscus damage, which might help improve future treatments.
This observational study follows people with a specific knee cartilage injury from osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) to see how they do after standard care and rehab. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most and what changes happen over follow-up.
