Intracortical chondromyxoid fibroma is an extremely rare benign neoplasm of cartilaginous origin that usually occurs as an eccentric lesion at the medullar metaphyseal region of long bones. We report the clinicoradiologic aspect of a new case located in the metaphyseal region of the upper tibia and discuss about the differential diagnosis.

Chondromyxoid fibroma is a rare bone tumor of cartilaginous origin, representing less than 1% of all bone tumors. It preferentially arises in the eccentric location of the metaphysis of a long tubular bone. Juxtacortical locations are reported infrequently in the long bones and even more rarely in short tubular bones, with only three cases documented.

Chondromyxoid fibromas (CMFs) are rare, benign, primary tumors of bones, and occur in the metaphyses of the medullary canals of the long bones. The occurrence of intracortical CMFs is extremely rare. Very few cases of intracortical CMFs located in the long tubular bones have been reported to date.

Chondromyxoid fibroma is a rare cartilage tumor that represents less than 1% of all bone tumors. When in a long bone, it is usually an intramedullary lesion that is eccentrically located in the metaphyseal region. Chondromyxoid fibroma may also have unusual presentations.

The clinicoradiologic and pathologic aspects of an intracortical, diaphyseal chondromyxoid fibroma of the humerus are reported. Because of the location of the lesion, the possibility of chondromyxoid fibroma was not considered radiologically. The diagnosis was made only after histologic examination of tissue obtained via an open biopsy, which led to the appropriate treatment, surgical curettage.
