Discussion: Abnormal scarring with keloid formation after osteochondroma excision in MHE has not been previously reported.
Although this study has limited numbers, the results demonstrate a statistically significant correlation between keloid formation
and MHE. The risk for abnormal scarring and keloid formation should be discussed with all patients before surgery.
As a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon, Dr. Dormans has spent the majority of his career treating children with musculoskeletal
tumors and disorders of the spine. Over the years, one of Dr. Dormans’ goals was to conduct research that expounds the
etiology, process and optimal treatment of patients with congenital conditions, trauma, and other musculoskeletal conditions
through clinical studies and collaborative basic science research. Dr. Dormans serves on the Scientific and Medical Advisory
Board of the MHE Research Foundation. He sees about 15 children who suffer from MHE a week and 90% of these children
require surgery. Dr. Dormans’ has spent much of his career researching and studying musculoskeletal tumors and spinal
deformity conditions in children and he has published numerous publications on his life’s work.
In December 2008, Dr. Dormans moderated the first session on MHE at the 5th Annual International Pediatric Orthopaedic
Symposium. Dr. Dormans is the current president of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA). Dr.
Dormans has had a great impact on the care of children with MHE. He has brought a global awareness to Multiple Hereditary
Exostoses and its great orthopaedic presence. His commitment to MHE Research has been and continues to be profound.
On behalf of the MHE Research Foundation, every family affected by MHE, the entire Orthopaedic community, we would like to
extend our eternal gratitude for his work, leadership and service to the MHE community.
Dr. Dormans and Dr. Hosalkar co- authored the standards of care chapter in the Connection Corner Guide to MHE/MO/HME Multiple Hereditary
Exostoses/Multiple Osteochondroma book.
