Overview

If left untreated, patients with osteochondroma may progress to develop overlying bursitis, and rise to malignant chondrosarcoma. Common complications of osteochondroma include fracture, skeletal deformation, and growth arrest. Prognosis is generally regarded as good after surgical excision. The recurrence rate of osteochondroma is 2%.[1]

Natural History

  • Most patients with osteochondroma are initially asymptomatic.
  • If left untreated, most of the patients with osteochondroma will develop palpable lump, overlying bursitis and malignant transformation.[1]

Complications

  • Common complications of osteochondroma include:
  • Bone fracture
  • Growth arrest
  • Skeletal deformation

Prognosis

  • Osteochondroma prognosis is generally regarded as good, after surgical excision.[2]
  • The overall recurrence rate after resection is 2%.[1]
