[Solitary carpal osteochondroma. Apropos of a case].
A bone tumor appeared progressively on the back of the wrist of a 62-year-old woman. Clinical and radiological aspects suggested a chondroma or chondrosarcoma. However, this was a solitary carpal osteochondroma arising from the capitate bone. The authors discuss the various features of this benign tumor.
