==[[Chondroma overview|Overview]]==


==Overview==
==[[Chondroma classification|Classification]]==
A '''[[chondroma]]''' is a ''benign cartilaginous [[tumor]]'', which is encapsulated with a lobular growing pattern.


Tumor cells ([[chondrocytes]], cartilaginous cells) resemble normal cells and produce the cartilaginous matrix (amorphous, basophilic material).
==[[Chondroma historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==


Characteristic features of this tumor include the vascular axes within the tumor, which make the distinction with normal hyaline [[cartilage]].
==[[Chondroma pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==


Chondromas are most common among [[adolescence]] when the bones are growing rapidly. They usually grow at a slow rate so take along time to become [[symptomatic]]. Chondromas does not [[infiltrate]] adjacent tissues.
==[[Chondroma epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology & Demographics]]==


==Classification==
==[[Chondroma risk factors|Risk Factors]]==
Chondromas are classified according to their location. [[Endochondromas]] are within the bone. [[Periosteal]] chondomas are on the surface of the bone and other chondromas form in soft tissues.
