Iliac bone, Osteochondroma, Surgical excisionAbstract
Childhood or adolescence can see the development of a benign tumor called an osteochondroma. It is an irregular growth that appears on a bone's surface close to the growth plate. Comprising both bone and cartilage, an osteochondroma is a growth plate protrusion. There are common placements for the metaphysis of the proximal tibia, distal femur, distal fibula, proximal femur, and proximal humerus.
