  • Title: [Chondromas (enchondroma, periosteal chondroma, enchondromatosis)].
    Author: Semenova LA, Bulycheva IV.
    Journal: Arkh Patol; 2007; 69(5):45-8. PubMed ID: 18074822.
    Abstract:
    Chondromas combine a group of benign cartilaginous tissue tumors with common histological manifestations. The tumors (enchondroma, periosteal chondroma, and enchondromatosis) differ in sites and clinical manifestations. Chondromas are generally hypocellular, avascular tumors with an abundance of hyaline cartilage matrix and chondrocytes located diffusely, in clones or lobules. Small bone chondromas, Ollier's disease, and Mafucci's syndrome are characterized by the tumor tissue containing a large number of cells and by greater cytological atypia. Enchondroma is successfully treated by surgical methods.
