    Hereditary multiple exostoses can cause severe neurological issues like tetraplegia. Prompt surgical intervention in such cases is crucial for preventing permanent spinal cord damage.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Neurosurgery
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the development of multiple bony outgrowths.
    • Spinal involvement in HME can lead to significant neurological complications.

    Observation:

    • A 15-year-old male with HME presented with tetraplegia and a positive Babinski's sign, indicating upper motor neuron damage.
    • The patient underwent successful surgical intervention for the spinal exostoses.

    Findings:

    • Surgical decompression relieved the spinal cord compression caused by the bony outgrowths.
    • Post-operative recovery showed improvement in neurological deficits.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and surgical management of spinal HME.
