Enchondroma of the scaphoid bone

Semih Takka et al. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg. 2002 Jul.

Abstract

The scaphoid bone is a very rare location for enchondroma. The literature reports eight cases; five of them presented with pathologic fracture, and the youngest patient was 13 years old. This is a report of an 11-year-old patient with scaphoid enchondroma who presented with only mild pain in the left wrist. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the lesion clearly.
