[Processus trochlearis tibiae Hyrtl or osteochondroma?].
A case of a well developed exostosis at the medial proximal site of the left tibia from a 74 year old male is described. The interpretation of the osseous spur as an exostosis (Osteochondroma) is contrasted with Hyrtl's explanation as a trochlear process.
