Chondroblastoma in distal femur
Chondroblastoma was first described in detail by codman in 1931 and so is occasionally referred to as codman’s tumor. Chondroblastoma is a rare primary benign bone tumor arising from immature cells of epiphyseal cartilage with preferential localization in the epiphysis or apophysis. Onset occur...

description | Chondroblastoma was first described in detail by
codman in 1931 and so is occasionally referred to as codman’s
tumor. Chondroblastoma is a rare primary benign bone tumor
arising from immature cells of epiphyseal cartilage with
preferential localization in the epiphysis or apophysis. Onset
occurs before obliteration of the ephiphyseal line, from 10 to
20 years of age. Males predominate with a ratio of 3 to 2.
Chondroblastomas are generally treated by curettage with or
without bone grafts. In this report, our aim was to present a
rare tumor chondroblastoma which was localized in the distal
femoral epiphysis |
