Cartilaginous lesions of bone

Cartilaginous lesions of the skeleton are very unusual. It is extremely important to correlate the roentgeno-graphic features, the clinical features, and the histological features to arrive at a definite diagnosis. Most cartilaginous lesions are benign or of low-grade malignancy. However, there are...

Summary:Cartilaginous lesions of the skeleton are very unusual. It is extremely important to correlate the roentgeno-graphic features, the clinical features, and the histological features to arrive at a definite diagnosis. Most cartilaginous lesions are benign or of low-grade malignancy. However, there are some subtypes of chondrosarcoma that behave in a highly aggressive fashion.
