It is thought to arise during skeletal growth when bone grows away from the [[growth plate]] instead of in line with it. Because the cause of solitary osteochondroma is unknown, doctors have not been able to find a way to prevent it.

Overview

There are no established direct causes for osteochondroma. The development of hereditary multiple osteochondroma may be the result of multiple genetic mutations.[1]

Causes

  • There are no established direct causes for osteochondroma.[2]
  • The development of hereditary multiple osteochondroma may be the result of multiple genetic mutations.[1]
  • Common genetic mutations for the development of osteochondroma can be found here.[3]
