A Case Report of Enchondroma on Right Ischjum

Abstract

The Enchondroma is a benign cartilage forming harmartoma arising chiefly from short tubular bones on hands and feet. If on a long tubular bone or flat bone such as femur or ilium, it is most likely to be a true neoplasm such as chondrosarcoma, not a harmartoma. A case of enchondroma was reported. It occurred over right ischium of 19 years old male and was found incidentally by roentgenogram. The lesion was biopsied and diagnos's was confirmed by histologic examination. It was treated by curretage with filling of cavity with bone chips. Post operative-course was uneventful.
