Growth Diferentiation of Scapular Exostisis In Relation To Its Position
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Osteochondroma or exostosis is a benign tumor arising from the bone involving the long bones most commonly, pelvis, ribs and the scapula at rare instances. It can run in families called as multiple hereditary exostosis(MHE) which is different from solitary exostosis in terms of malignant transformation. MHE has a higher chance of malignant transformation. In our study 7 cases of solitary scapular exostosis were studied and followed up. The size of the tumor in relation to the forces acting on it were assessed. Pain was also a feature in this study without malignant transformation, but suspicion of malignancy needs needle biopsy and later complete excision as like any malignant tumour
