*Benign thingy.
*Usual legs and feet.
*May be difficult to separate from [[chondrosarcoma]].
*Multiple chondromas = ''enchondromatosis''; three distinct syndromes:<ref name=emed_enchondroma>URL: [http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/389224-overview http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/389224-overview]. Accessed on: 25 December 2010.</ref>
**Ollier disease.
**Maffucci syndrome - with [[hemangioma]]s, increased risk of [[chondrosarcoma]].<ref name=omim166000>{{OMIM|166000}}</ref>
**Metachondromatosis - autosomal dominant.
*''Enchondroma'' = chondroma in the marrow space.

*Soft tissue component.
 
Note:
*High-grade chondroid lesions (high-grade chondrosarcoma) can usually be separated radiologically from low-grade ones.<ref name=pmid22696998>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Berber | first1 = O. | last2 = Datta | first2 = G. | last3 = Sabharwal | first3 = S. | last4 = Aston | first4 = W. | last5 = Saifuddin | first5 = A. | last6 = Briggs | first6 = T. | title = The safety of direct primary excision of low-grade chondral lesions based on radiological diagnosis alone. | journal = Acta Orthop Belg | volume = 78 | issue = 2 | pages = 254-62 | month = Apr | year = 2012 | doi =  | PMID = 22696998 }}</ref>

Features:
*Ctyologically benign cells is spaced nests.
 
DDx:
*Low-grade [[chondrosarcoma]] - should be considered, correlation with radiology essential.

====Micro====
The sections show spaced small cells in a pale matrix with a light-blue tinge. No nuclear atypia is appreciated. No mitotic activity is apparent. Degenerative changes are seen focally.
 
A small focus of cholesterol clefts with giant cells is present. Benign bone, bone marrow and skeletal muscle are present.

==Osteochondroma==
===General===
*Benign.
*Very common.
*Abnormal outgrowth of bone and cartilage - associated with growth plate.

==Notochordal tumors==
Features:
Notochordal tumors arise from notochordal remnants and thus are seen in the clivus or sacrum.

*Mushroom-like shape - with broad or narrow base.


Note:
==Osteochondroma==
*Very unusual in craniofacial bones.<ref name=pmid12873205/>
{{Main|Osteochondroma}}
 
===Microscopic===
Features:<ref name=pmid12873205/>
*Bone - forms base of "mushroom".
*Cartilage - layer usu. thinner in older individuals.
**Lobular arrangement<ref name=upmc_case341>URL: [http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html]. Accessed on: 19 September 2012.</ref> - clusters of 3-12 lacunae (separated by stroma).
**May have mild atypia.
**Nuclear enlargement - up to 5x normal.
*[[Perichondrium]] - covers the cartilage.
**Thin layer of cells - higher cellular density than cartilage.
***Bland spindle cells in a fibrous (eosinophilic) stroma.
 
Notes:
*Benign cartilage - one chondrocyte per lacuna, small and round nucleus, no binucleation.
 
DDx:
*[[Chondrosarcoma]] - esp. in older individuals.
