Benign chondroid neoplasms of bone.
Benign cartilage lesions discussed in this article include osteochondroma (solitary, epiphyseal, and multiple), chondroblastoma, periosteal chondroma, and chondromyxoid fibroma. These lesions often demonstrate imaging appearances strongly suggesting the above diagnosis, particularly the "ring and arc" mineralization characteristic of cartilage lesions, which reflects their underlying pathology. This article emphasizes the imaging spectrum of these lesions with a multimodality approach.
