Introduction: Enchondroma protuberans (EP), a rare form of enchondroma with exophytic growth, differs radiographically from classical enchondromas and can mimic osteochondroma, periosteal chondroma, or chondrosarcoma. Proper differentiation is crucial to avoid unnecessary radical resection, as EP requires intralesional curettage rather than the surgical removal typical for osteochondromas.
Case Report: A 14-year-old male presented with a progressively enlarging, painless mass on the lateral aspect of his left hand, initially noticed 4 years ago.

Enchondroma protuberans (EP) is a rare form of enchondroma which demonstrates exophytic growth outside the margins of the bony cortex. A previously healthy 18-year-old male presented with chronic painless palpable mass of the left third finger. Radiograph showed a well-circumscribed expansile lucent lesion in the middle phalanx of the left third finger.

Background: Enchondroma protuberans (EP) is rare, benign cartilaginous bone tumor arising from the intramedullary cavity of long bones and usually protrudes beyond the cortex with an exophytic growth pattern resembling osteochondroma. This study reports on a rare case of EP arising from the transverse process of the D8 vertebra and extending to the adjacent 7th and 8th ribs and the paraspinal tissues.
Methods: A 45-year-old female patient came in with complaints of upper back pain radiating up to the left costal margin for the past 6 months.

Rationale: We report two rare cases of enchondroma protuberans originating from phalanxes.
Patient Concerns: The patients visited doctors for a palpable mass in their phalanx without any pain or discomfort.
Diagnoses: Biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of enchondroma protuberans.
