A rare presentation of osteochondroma at the spinous process of the cervical spine: a case report
We report an unusual case of osteochondroma at the spinous process of the C4 spine of a 15-year-old patient with the chief complaint of neck discomfort on movement. The patient has previously been diagnosed and treated for multiple hereditary exostoses of other bones. The patient underwent surgery for the current lesion with complete excision to the base of the lesion. Histopathology revealed a benign osteochondroma with a thin layer of cartilaginous cap. The patient was healed uneventfully and had no recurrence of the lesion on the same site at the 1-year follow-up. Surgical resection remains the mainstay treatment of ost...

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation: an educational review
AbstractBizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) is a surface-based bone lesion belonging to the group of benign chondrogenic tumors. The aim of this review is to familiarize the readers with imaging features and differential diagnosis of BPOP, also addressing pathological presentation and treatment options. The peak of incidence of BPOP is in the third and fourth decades of life, although it can occur at any age. Hands are the most common location of BPOP (55%), followed by feet (15%) and long bones (25%). On imaging, BPOP appears as a well-marginated mass of heterotopic mineralization arising from the pe...

Osteochondroma of the coronoid process: case report
A 28-year-old male presented to the hospital with swelling of the left zygoma, severely limited mouth opening and pain. There was no history of trauma or congenital bone disorder. Computed tomography revealed an enlargement of the coronoid process of the mandible. The diagnostic hypothesis was osteochondroma so the patient was submitted to surgery under general anesthesia via naso-tracheal intubation for lesion excision. Al-Kayat and Bramley's preauricular incision was performed. After dissection, the zygomatic arch was removed to access the lesion.

Concurrent intraosseous cartilaginous lesions in patients with multiple osteochondromas identified on total-body MR imaging
ConclusionIntraosseous chondroid lesions (enchondroma and ACT) appear to occur more frequently in MO patients than in the general population. TB-MRI allows to detect these, besides the identification of OC with suspicious features. (Source: Skeletal Radiology)

Hereditary multiple exostoses caused by a chromosomal inversion removing part of EXT1 gene
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is an autosomal dominant skeletal disorder characterized by the development of multiple, circumscript and usually symmetric bony protuberances called osteochondromas. Most H... (Source: Molecular Cytogenetics)

Sacroiliac joint involvement in osteochondromatosis: identifying its prevalence and characteristics from cross-sectional imaging
CONCLUSION: Cross-sectional imaging shows frequent (73%) SIJ involvement in osteochondromatosis, which, although a rare disorder, nevertheless needs to be considered in the differential diagnosis of such SIJ anatomical variants as the accessory SIJ and iliosacral complex. Differentiating these variants from osteochondromas is challenging in patients with osteochondromatosis.PMID:36988050 | DOI:10.5152/dir.2022.211018 (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology : The Turkish Society of Radiology)
