A Solitary, Large Calcaneal Osteochondroma Growing Extensively After Skeletal Maturity: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Although osteochondromas are the most common benign tumors in the skeleton, calcaneal osteochondromas are very rare. New onset of pain or rapid growth of the tumor, especially after the closure of the epiphyseal growth plate, might reflect malignant transformation. However, enlargement of solitary osteochondromas reported as benign in a skeletally mature patient is present in the literature.

Vanishing solitary osteochondroma of humerus following trauma: A case report.

Osteochondromas are the most common benign tumors of the bone. Mainly these lesions affect the long-bone metaphysis and usually are asymptomatic. When complications develop from these lesions, then they become symptomatic and surgical resection may become indicated.

Solitary Extraskeletal Giant Osteochondroma of the Ankle in a Four-Year-Old Boy.

Solitary extraskeletal osteochondromas are rare benign lesions usually located close to a joint and are characterized by the absence of continuity with the adjacent bone. They are usually found in the hand and feet and are extremely rarely reported in the growing skeleton. In this paper, we describe a four-year-old boy who presented with a solitary calcified tumor in the posterior part of his ankle.

Osteochondroma of the atlas vertebra causing high grade spinal canal stenosis: a rare case report.

Osteochondromas are the most common primary benign bone tumors which can be either solitary or multiple in the form of hereditary multiple exostosis (HME). Osteochondromas are located frequently in the long bones and rarely involve the spine. Cervical spine remains the most common site for spinal osteochondroma.

Solitary osteochondromas in paleo-oncology: A case report from 4th-century BCE Pontecagnano (southern Italy).

Objective: This study presents a new case of solitary osteochondroma (SOC) identified on the proximal tibia of a 4th-century BCE individual from Pontecagnano (Salerno, Italy) with an aim to contribute to differential diagnosis of bone tumors in archeological contexts.

Materials: Paleopathological assessment of a male individual with an estimated age-at death of 45.9-62.

Fibrous Dysplasia of Temporal Bone Presented as a Solitary Osteochondroma: A Case Report.

Introduction: Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disorder of unknown etiology. It represents a disturbance of normal bone development - a defect in osteoblastic differentiation and maturation that originates in the mesenchymal precursor of the bone. It is characterized by slow progressive replacement of bone by abnormal isomorphic fibrous tissue.

Clinical Features and Surgical Outcomes of Osteochondroma of the Spine.

Introduction: Spinal osteochondroma is rare. The purpose of this study is to examine the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment outcomes of 11 patients with spinal osteochondroma.

Materials And Methods: The study included 11 patients with spinal osteochondroma.

Solitary Osteochondroma of the Scapula in a Young Male: A Case Report.

Introduction: Osteochondroma is a type of cartilaginous tumor. It is the most common benign tumor of axial skeleton usually arising around the knee, proximal humerus, and pelvis. Solitary osteochondroma of the scapula is relatively rare and usually incidental finding accompanied by pain and dysfunction.

A solitary giant osteochondroma of the femur in the shape of a devil's head pushing back the superficial femoral artery: Case report and literature review.

Introduction: The most common benign bone tumors are osteogenic exostoses or osteochondromas. They occur during growth and are rarely the cause of vascular or nervous complications.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a young 34-year-old patient who consulted for a swelling in his right thigh.

Peroneal Nerve Palsy Caused by Proximal Fibular Solitary Osteochondroma: Case Report and Literature Review.

Osteochondroma is a relatively common benign tumor of the bone, and compressive neuropathies due to osteochondroma are comparatively rare. Here, we present a rare case of osteochondroma of the fibular head that caused peroneal nerve palsy in an 8-year-old girl. Physical examination revealed 0/5 tibialis anterior, 1/5 extensor hallucis longus, and 1/5 peroneal brevis muscle power-according to the manual muscle testing grading system, as well as numbness on the lateral side of the right leg and the back of the foot.

Hemothorax caused by costal exostosis injuring diaphragm: a case report and literature review.

Background: Osteochondromas, also known as exostoses, are the most common benign tumors of bone and can be classified into isolated and multiple osteochondromas. A great majority of osteochondromas is asymptomatic, painless, slow-growing mass, and incidentally found. However, osteochondromas occurring in adolescence or in adult patients can grow in size and become symptomatic as a result of mechanical irritation of the surrounding soft tissues or peripheral nerves, spinal cord compression, or vascular injury.

Imaging Diagnosis of Primary Solitary Bone Neoplasts and Its Comparison with Tumor-like Lesions.

Objective: To explore the imaging diagnostic value of primary solitary bone tumor and tumor-like lesion of iliac crest.

Methods: A total of 156 patients with primary solitary bone tumors and tumor-like lesions of the iliac bone treated in our hospital were selected, and the patients were diagnosed by X-ray, CT, and MRI. Sexual analysis of single diagnostic and combined diagnostic value was carried out.

Hereditary multiple exostoses: A case report and literature review.

Osteochondroma is the most common bone tumor representing 20%-50% of all benign bone tumors and 10%-15% of all bone tumors. Osteochondroma has similar radiological appearance in both solitary and multiple forms; the latter is an autosomal dominant disorder termed hereditary multiple exostoses. Associated complications of osteochondroma include deformity, fracture, neurovascular compromise, bursa formation, and malignant transformation.

Rapidly Growing Solitary Osteochondroma in the Adult Finger A Case Report.

Osteochondromas are common benign bone tumors that are most commonly found in children and adolescents. They are usually slow-growing and located at the metaphysis of the long bones. When present in adults in atypical locations or with concerning features, such as thickened cartilage cap and rapid growth, osteochondromas warrant imaging to assess the risk of malignant transformation into chondrosar- coma and may require surgical excision.

Solitary Pediatric Osteochondroma of the Spine With Cord Compression.

Osteochondromas typically arise in the appendicular skeleton, with axial lesions occurring less commonly. Osteochondroma of the spine resulting in cord compression and symptomatic myelopathy is relatively rare. Most cases are reported in adolescents and adults.

[Cervicalgia and interescapular pain by cervical osteochondroma: About a case].

Background And Objective: Osteochondroma is the most frequent benign bone tumor, it can present in solitary or multiple form. Only 1 to 4% of osteochondromas are found in the spine and the most frequent of these is located at the cervical level. Of all spinal osteochondromas, only 0.

Novel techniques for solitary atlas osteochondroma: a case report and literature review.

Osteochondroma is a common benign bone tumor that is rarely seen in the spine, especially in the atlas. Although most solitary atlas osteochondromas have no symptoms, some exostosis may cause severe clinical symptoms that need treatment within the spine. Here, we report a 21-year-old male who presented with apsychia as well as numbness in his right upper and lower limbs for 2 months.
