Abstract
|
|
|
|
Osteochodromas are the most common benign osseous neoplasm, covered by a distinct hyaline cartilage cap, originating from the physis. They involve typically metaphyseal or metadiaphyseal region of a long bone, while they involve the foot rarely. In the foot, the osteochondromas mostly occur in short tubular bones such as metatarsal bones and phalanges. They are seldom found in calcaneus. We report a rare case of osteochondroma involving calcaneus.
