Osteochondroma
Osteochondroma is the most common benign bone tumor, typically arising from the metaphysis of long bones during skeletal growth.
Osteochondroma is a cartilage-capped bony outgrowth projecting from the surface of a bone, commonly found near the growth plates of long bones. It usually presents in adolescence and may be solitary or part of multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE). Though benign, it may cause pain or neurovascular compression and rarely transform into chondrosarcoma.
