Periosteal chondroma, a rare benign bone tumor, was diagnosed in three children under 10. Long-term observation showed invasive diagnostic procedures are unnecessary for this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Skeletal Radiology

Background:

  • Periosteal chondroma is a rare benign cartilaginous tumor.
  • Few documented cases exist, with no prior reports in children under 10 years old.
  • Radiological features have been previously described.

Observation:

  • Three pediatric cases of periosteal chondroma are presented.
  • Lesions were located in the long bones of the upper limbs.
  • All patients were under 10 years old at the time of lesion appearance.

Findings:

  • Histological examination was performed in two cases.
  • All patients underwent follow-up, revealing the benign nature of the tumor.
  • Invasive diagnostic procedures were deemed unnecessary due to the tumor's predictable behavior.

Implications:

  • This study highlights periosteal chondroma in young children, expanding the known demographic.
  • Long-term observation is a viable and less invasive management strategy.
  • Understanding the natural history of periosteal chondroma can guide clinical decision-making.
