  • Title: [Superior tibial epiphyseal osteochondroma with intra-articular development. Apropos of 2 cases in children].
    Author: Calabet A, Diard F, Ledosseur P, Collard JP, Vergnes P, Coindre JM.
    Journal: J Radiol; 1984 May; 65(5):389-92. PubMed ID: 6471012.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of intra-articular development of an osteochondroma in the proximal epiphysis of the tibia are reported. The first case, a 3 year old boy, resulted in blocking of the knee. After resection of the mass the diagnosis was confirmed by pathology. The second patient, an 8 year old boy, had no symptoms and surgery was not performed, although ablation was required of an associated astragalian osteochondroma of tibiotarsal intra-articular development. Relations between these epiphyseal osteochondromata and hemimelic epiphyseal dysplasia and metachondromatosis are discussed.
