Overview
Pathogenesis
- Enchondromas arise from rests of growth plate cartilage or chondrocytes that are normally involved in the production and maintainence of the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly of collagen and proteoglycans.[1]
- Chondromas is the result of nests of growth-plate cartilage that have become entrapped in the medullary canal of the metaphysis or in the metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction. These hamartomatous proliferations persist as islands in the bone and then develop from enchondral ossification.[2][3]
Genetics
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of enchondromas and periostal chondromas include isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) and IDH2 .[4]
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, small (usually less than 3 cm), translucent, grey blue, nodular lesions with occasional calcifications are characteristic findings of chondromas.[5][6]
Microscopic Pathology
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, characteristic findings of chondroma are as followings:[7][8]
- Cytologically benign cells is spaced nests
- Not extending into surrounding soft tissue
- Avascular, fibrous lobules of hyaline cartilagenous matrix
- Interspersed with chondrocytes and separated by normal marrow
