A 1-year-old male neutered ferret (Mustela putorius furo) was evaluated for an abnormal left cubital joint. Radiographs demonstrated a proliferative osseous lesion of the left proximal antebrachium. Computed tomography confirmed a large thin-walled expansile osseous lesion of the left proximal radius and identified multifocal proliferative lesions of the axial spine, two of which caused spinal cord compression.

Solitary osteochondromas are common, benign hyaline cartilage-capped exostoses that primarily arise from the metaphyses of long and flat bones. Diaphyseal aclasis is an autosomal dominant condition resulting from EXT1 or EXT2 gene mutations and is characterized by multifocal osteochondromas. These can result in a wide spectrum of complications, such as skeletal deformity, neurological and vascular complications, adventitial bursa formation, fracture, and rarely malignant transformation to peripheral chondrosarcoma.

Article Synopsis
  • Multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE) and enchondromatosis are rare, benign conditions that lead to skeletal deformities starting in childhood.
  • MHE is inherited and involves multiple osteochondromas growing from bones, causing pain and reduced motion due to pressure on nearby tissues.
  • Enchondromatosis features multiple asymmetrical enchondromas and can be part of Maffucci's syndrome, leading to skeletal alignment issues and increased risk of malignancy.

Tumor syndromes, including bone neoplasias, are genetic predisposing conditions characterized by the development of a pattern of malignancies within a family at an early age of onset. Occurrence of bilateral, multifocal, or metachronous neoplasias and specific histopathologic findings suggest a genetic predisposition syndrome. Additional clinical features not related to the neoplasia can be a hallmark of specific genetic syndromes.
