Chondroblastoma: An Unusual Cause Of Shoulder Pain In Adolescence

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: Chondroblastoma is a rare benign bone tumor, most often localized in the epiphysis of long bones. We report a case of atraumatic shoulder pain in a 17-year old soccer player. This chondroblastoma case demonstrates the difficult differentiation of chondroblastoma from giant cell tumor and clear cell chondrosarcoma and highlights possible pitfalls and clinical importance.
