  • Title: Periosteal chondroma at birth.
    Author: Domson GF, Bush CH, Reith JR, Rajaram A, Scarborough MT, Gibbs CP.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2008 Jun; 37(6):559-62. PubMed ID: 18369616.
    Abstract:
    Periosteal chondroma is a slow-growing, cartilaginous, surface tumor that usually occurs in the second and third decades of life. The youngest reported age at diagnosis is 5 years. Marginal excision is the treatment of choice. We report a case of a periosteal chondroma noted at birth and treated conservatively. This report expands the age range of periosteal chondroma to include neonates and suggests a role for observation in its management.
