title: [Osteochondrosis dissecans of concave joint surfaces: roof of shoulder joint, tibial plateau, distal tibia].
abstract: Typically an osteochondrosis dissecans occurs in the region of a convex articular surface, the most frequently localisation observed being the medial femoral condyle. Only few cases of an osteochondrosis dissecans in concave articular surfaces have been reported; these involved the tibial plateau, the distal tibia and the proximal surface of the navicular bone. Two more cases with an osteochondrosis dissecans in the proximal and distal tibial epiphysis are reported and additionally a hitherto unreported localisation in the glenoid fossa of the scapula. True osteochondrosis must be differentiated from ossification variants.
