Overview
Findings on CT scan suggestive of enchondroma include sharply defined scalloped margins, expansion of the overlying cortex may be present, no periosteal reaction and soft tissue mass.
CT Scan
- Bone CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of enchondroma. Findings on CT scan suggestive of enchondroma include:[1][2]
- Sharply defined scalloped margins
- Expansion of the overlying cortex may be present, but there should not be cortical breakthrough unless fractured
- No periosteal reaction
- No soft tissue mass
