We present a case of subperiosteal recurrence of chondroblastoma adjacent to the greater trochanter that was initially thought to represent septic arthritis of the hip in a 10-year-old girl. Soft-tissue recurrence of chondroblastoma is very rare, with fewer than ten cases reported in the literature. We demonstrate the recurrence on both CT and MRI....

Chondroblastoma is a rare, benign neoplasm usually located in the epiphyses and apophyses of the long bones in the immature skeleton. Radiologically, these tumors have a classic appearance of a lytic lesion with chondroid matrix surrounded by a thin sclerotic rim. Here, we describe the case of a 5-year-old male who presented with a chondroblastoma...
Background and objective:
Chondroblastoma is difficult to treat as the tumor is surrounded by both articular cartilage and the epiphyseal plate. The differences in joint shape further complicate the problem. This retrospective study evaluates the efficacy of intraregional aggressive curettage and allogeneic bone grafting for treating chondroblasto...
PurposeTo describe and analyse functional treatment of temporal bone chondroblastoma (TBCh).Methods
From January 2000 to June 2019, at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Hôpital Lariboisière, Paris, France, patients with TBCh were enrolled in this study. All cases routinely performed pre-operatory work-up including evaluation of performance sta...
Chondroblastoma is a benign epiphyseal chondromatous lesion typically seen as a small, well-defined, eccentric epiphyseal lesion with thin rim of surrounding bone sclerosis. Soft tissue extension, metaphyseal involvement, periosteal reaction, cortex breach though not pathognomonic, are reported in literature. We present a case report of a patient w...

... It mainly involves the epiphyseal region of long bones, the proximal tibia, distal femur and proximal humerus being the most common sites [2]. Unusual locations such as metaphyseal, diaphyseal and cortical based have been reported [3][4][5][6][7]. Recently, the first case of a cortical surface chondroblastoma was reported by Demertzis et al. [8] in a 47 years old male involving the midshaft of tibia. ...
... Single cases occurring in uncommon locations such as cranial bones, pelvis and soft tissue have been reported. In these, the tumor tends to occur in an older age group [3,[5][6][7]9]. ...
... Chondroblastoma has also been reported in extraosseus locations such as skin and subcutaneous tissue with a resemblance to chondroblastomalike chondroma [8,10]. Recurrences of chondroblastoma have been reported to occur in a subperiosteal location and in soft tissue [6,7]. ...
