slide 2 of 8
 
Comments:
The lesion is most frequent in 2nd and 3rd decades of life with male predilection. It usually involves metaphyseal region of long tubular bones. The most common location is proximal tibial metaphysis. Small bones of foot are also frequently involved. Uncommon locations include vertebra, ribs, scapula, and pelvis (shown here). Misdiagnoses of all sorts are possible and this case had originally been diagnosed as a chondrosarcoma. Image courtesy of Bulent Celasun, MD, Ankara, Turkey.
