Overview
Natural History
- Enchndromas usually diagnosed in third and fourth decade of life.
- Periosteal chondromas are frequently diagnosed in second or third decade of life.[1]
- Synovial chondromas can occur at any age with the peak incidence at fifth decade.
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]
