    A painless skeletal swelling or a slowly growing mass is the usual mode of presentation. HME leads to abnormalities such as palpable bony masses and limb shortening in the first or second decade of life. [emedicine.medscape.com]

    This will cause immediate pain and swelling in the area of the tumor. Because many osteochondromas do not cause any discomfort or other symptoms, they are often discovered by accident when an x-ray is done for an unrelated reason. [orthoinfo.aaos.org]

  • Gaucher Disease

    In MHE, the distal femurs develop an “Erlenmeyer flask” shapes, similar to Gaucher’s disease. CT and MRI are also useful to determine the extent of soft tissue impingement surrounding the lesion (Tarassoli, 2009). [posna.org]

  • Tingling

    For example, a tumor on the posterior aspect of the knee may result in numbness and tingling, periodic changes in blood flow, loss of pulse, or colour change in the limb secondary to nerve and blood vessel compression. [2] Symptoms Painless, palpable [physio-pedia.com]

    Numbness or tingling. An osteochondroma can be located near a nerve, such as behind the knee. If the tumor puts pressure on a nerve, there may be numbness and tingling in the associated limb. Changes in blood flow. [orthoinfo.aaos.org]

With CT scanning, radiation burden in the young may be a disadvantage, particularly when several examinations may be required in the workup of hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) or sarcomatous transformation. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Imaging Studies: Initial workup begins with history and physical examination including a detailed family history, especially in patients with two or more lesions. Radiographic imaging is the next step and can be diagnostic. [posna.org]

Nonsurgical Treatment In most cases, treatment consists of careful observation over time. Your doctor may want to take regular x-rays to keep track of any changes in the tumors. [orthoinfo.aaos.org]

[…] for continued osteochondroma growth after skeletal maturity (in which case malignancy is suspected); - definitive treatment includes marginal excision of an active exostosis, including the cartilaginous cap & overlying perichondrium; - deep bony base [wheelessonline.com]

Treatment [ edit ] No treatment is required if the diagnosis is not in doubt and if the patient is relatively asymptomatic. However, surgical resection is indicated for persistent irritation from bursitis or for neurovascular compromise. [en.wikibooks.org]

Cartilaginous Exostosis Prognosis This disease does not carry a deadly prognosis. However, the onset of cartilaginous exostosis can lead to serious health complications for the patient. [knowcancer.com]

The prognosis is favorable In most cases, with successful treatment the prognosis is favorable. Relapses usually do not occur. [medicalj-center.info]

The prognosis is usually excellent It is estimated that very small fraction of individuals may have recurrence after surgery (2% recurrence - according to Mayo Clinic). [dovemed.com]

- the cartilaginous cap should not be traumatized during its removal; - prognosis for a solitary exostosis is excellent ( 5% recurrence following marginal excision) Pseudoaneurysm of the popliteal artery with an unusual arteriographic presentation. [wheelessonline.com]

Treatment and prognosis As they represent normal growth of a growth plate in an abnormal direction, they often stop growing with the rest of the skeleton 3. In most instances, no treatment is required. [radiopaedia.org]

This happens in approximately 1% of solitay osteochondroma cases [1] [9] [12] and 5-25% in multiple osteochondromas. [1] [13] Etiology The etiology regarding the development of solitary osteochondroma is currently unknown [6]. [physio-pedia.com]

Causes of tumors in most cases are not the exact etiology. Some tumors appear to be due to genetic nature. Tumors are benign or malignant (cancer). Sometimes benign tumors are transformed into malignant ones. [medicalj-center.info]

Etiology: Osteochondromas have been historically viewed as developmental lesions, but there is evidence supporting a neoplastic origin (Biermann, 2002; Murphey, 2000; Porter, 1999). [posna.org]

Osteochondromas without a stalk are called sessile exostoses. [2] [11] Epidemiology/Etiology Epidemiology Average age of clinical presentation is between 10 and 30. [2] [7] [10] [8] These tumors account for 10%-15% of all bone tumors [3], while representing [physio-pedia.com]

Epidemiology [ edit ] Age: Present before the age of 20 in 80% of cases ( range of age 10–35 years) Sex: There is a 2:1 male to female predominance for the development of solitary osteochondromas. [en.wikibooks.org]

Epidemiology: Osteochondromas are the most common benign tumor of bone accounting for 10% of primary skeletal tumors and 40% of benign bone tumors (Dahlin, 1986). [posna.org]

Epidemiology Affects 2 per 100,000 population. [ 2 ] More frequently found in Caucasians than in other races. Risk factors Inheritance is autosomal dominant, with near-complete penetrance. [patient.info]

Epidemiology data are based on the Netherlands Committee of bone tumors database. Benign Cartilage Tumors Benign cartilage tumors arise primarily in young age groups, with a peek incidence between the second and third decade. [lumc.nl]

Pathophysiology [ edit ] Osteochondromas result from the growth of aberrant growth plate with cartilage on the bony surface. As the cartilage grows, it forms a cap over a bony mass that develops by progressive enchondral ossification. [en.wikibooks.org]

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY • Osteochondromas are developmental lesions rather than true neoplasms • These lesions result from the separation of a fragment of epiphyseal growth plate cartilage, which subsequently herniates through the periosteal bone cuff • The mechanism [slideshare.net]

Dislocation of the radial head may occur earlier than previously thought, hindering its prevention. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

How to prevent the danger? As a preventive measure to avoid injuries, fractures, to monitor the current of hereditary diseases. Also children predisposed to this disease on hereditary indicators need to undergo an annual rentgenologicheski study. [medicalj-center.info]

Typically, the cartilage cap and the perichondrium (dense connective tissue around the cartilage) are also excised in such cases to prevent lesion recurrence. [knowcancer.com]
