Diagnosis
The imaging findings are
- Central area of radiolucency with a surrounding thick rim of reactive bone sclerosis
- Pathognomonic tortuous parallel lucent channels extending toward the growth plate
- Variable degree of periosteal new-bone formation
- Variable associated soft-tissue swelling.
