2021年11月16日 · An enchondroma is a benign (not cancerous) tumor that develops in the cartilage in the center of your bones. Usually, an enchondroma doesn’t cause any pain. You may not know you have it unless you get an X-ray for an unrelated injury.

2024年10月6日 · Enchondromas are benign latent cartilaginous tumors composed of hyaline cartilage that typically occur in medullary cavity of the diaphysis or metaphysis. Patients typically present between the ages of 20-50 with an asymptomatic lesion, …

An enchondroma most often affects the cartilage that lines the inside of the bones. It often affects the tiny long bones of the hands and feet. It may also affect other bones such as the femur (thighbone), humerus (upper arm bone), or tibia (one of the two lower leg bones).

2024年12月1日 · Enchondromas, also known as chondromas 7, are relatively common intramedullary hyaline cartilage neoplasms with benign imaging features. They share histologic features with low-grade chondrosarcoma and are sometimes classified under the umbrella term low-grade chondral series tumors.

Enchondomas can also develop in the body's long bones, such as the femur (thighbone), tibia (shinbone), and humerus (upper arm bone). Enchondromas are most often solitary tumors. In rare cases, however, multiple tumors can appear as part of a condition such as Ollier disease or Maffucci syndrome.

Enchondroma is a type of benign bone tumor that originates from cartilage. The exact etiology of it is not known. An enchondroma most often affects the cartilage that lines the inside of the bones. The bones most often involved with this benign tumor are the …

2024年1月30日 · Enchondromas are usually solitary, central, metaphyseal tubular bone lesions, favoring the small hand and foot bones, femur, and humerus. Enchondromatous tumor growth typically begins in childhood, arising from growth plate cartilage or chondrocytes that initially proliferate but fail to develop normally and persist until adulthood.

Enchondromas and atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACT) are often located at the proximal humerus. Most lesions can be followed conservatively, but surgical resection may alleviate pain, avoid pathological fractures, and prevent transformation into higher grade chondrosarcomas.

An enchondroma most often affects the cartilage that lines the inside of the bones. It often affects the long, tiny bones of the hands and feet. It may also affect other bones such as the thighbone (femur), upper arm bone (humerus), or one of the two lower leg bones (tibia).

Enchondromatosis is a rare disorder that is not hereditary in which the patient is afflicted with multiple intraosseous cartilaginous tumors or enchondromas. Clinical Data: Enchondromas in enchondromatosis may involve the metaphysis, diaphysis, epiphysis and articular cartilage.
