Abstract
Osteochondroma is most common benign bone tumour and affects metaphyseal region. Most common location is around knee joint. Mostly these tumours are painless and present with swelling over affected region. Here we are presenting case study of 14 years old boy who presented in OPD with pain and swelling over anterior aspect of distal thigh left side. On radiological examination X-ray and MRI confirmed diagnosis as Osteochondroma with features of continuation of cartilage cap with medullary canal. Growth was excised, and diagnosis of solitary exostosis arising from diaphyseal region was confirmed on histopathology examination. This case report shows uncommon location of Osteochondroma at diaphyseal level which requires excision as it was symptomatic.
