  • Title: Transformation of solitary osteochondroma to dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma arising in the distal radius: a case report.
    Author: Dekker AP, Grimer RJ.
    Journal: Musculoskelet Surg; 2013 Apr; 97(1):89-92. PubMed ID: 23007379.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 35-year-old patient suffering from an untreated solitary osteochondroma and subsequent rare transformation to a dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma. This case highlights the potential risk of malignant transformation and raises the question of patient and clinician responsibility in identifying changes in a premalignant condition.
