Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations of the temporal region: a case report
Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations (BPOPs) are distinct clinical –pathological entities that demonstrate combinations of atypical-appearing osseous and chondromatous tissues. These lesions are usually reactive in nature. Histopathologically, ‘bizarre’ cartilage is a characteristic feature of this lesion. BPOPs usually represent slow-growing painless bony ha rd protuberances that arise from the surface of affected bone cortices, typically the metacarpals, metatarsals, and phalanges.
