Overview
Natural History
- Chondroma is usually diagnosed incidentally.[1]
- Chondroma grows slowly, with a mean time of 41 months between initial diagnosis and change in lesion.
Complications
Common complications of chondroma include:[2][3][4][5]
- Malignant transformation into a low grade chondrosarcoma
- Growth disturbance
- Pathologic fracture, especially in short tubular
- Recurrence
Prognosis
- Benign chondromas have a good prognosis with aprropriate treatment.[6]
- Most patients with chondroma under treatment remain asymptomatic and recur rarely.[7]
