Codman Tumor
CLINICAL SUMMARY
Chondroblastoma is an uncommon bone tumor, found almost exclusively in the epiphysis of long bones or epiphyseal equivalents, such as an apophysis or the patella. Diagnosis sometimes is obscured by synovitis in the adjacent joint. Curettage (intralesional excision) is usually curative. Rarely, lung metastases are found.
