How to remember the primary bone lesions:
*[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Enchondroma_-_intermed_mag.jpg Enchondroma - intermed mag. (WC)].
#''Ewing sarcoma'' is the only malignant primary bone tumour of the diaphysis.
*[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Enchondroma_-_very_high_mag.jpg Enchondroma - very high mag. (WC)].
#''Giant cell tumour of bone'' is the only primary bone lesion of the epiphysis.
#The rest of the primary bone lesions are metaphyseal.
#*''Osteochondroma'' is bone first and cartilage second. It behaves like most primary bone lesions; it is usually metaphyseal.


==Chondroblastoma==
How to remember the primary cartilaginous lesions:
===General===
#''Chondroblastoma'' is epiphyseal. The chicken wire goes around the chicken coop.
*Growth plate lesion.
#The others are diaphyseal.
*Sclerotic margin.
*"Young" = growth plates open.

Features:<ref name=Ref_WMSP_642>{{Ref WMSP|642}}</ref>
==Chondroma==
*Abundant extracellular material - pink on [[H&E stain]] - looks vaguely like cartilage.
{{Main|Chondroma}}
*Chondroblasts:
**Nuclear morphology variable: ovoid, folded or grooved.
**Moderate-abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm.
*+/-Calcifications surround cells nests ("chickenwire" appearance) - '''classic feature'''.
*+/-Giant cells.
**May lead to confusion with ''giant cell tumour''.

**Osteoid = (extracellular) organic component of bone, normally produced by osteoblasts (cells which make bone matrix).

*Cells with malignant features (e.g. nuclear membrane irregularities, marked nuclear size differences, mitoses) surrounded by delicate strands of osteoid.
**Osteoid on H&E: pink, homogenous, "glassy".
**Tumours typically very cellular - when compared to normal bone.
*Large (multinucleated) osteoclast-like giant cells may be seen.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Papalas JA, Balmer NN, Wallace C, Sangueeza OP |title=Ossifying dermatofibroma with osteoclast-like giant cells: report of a case and literature review |journal=Am J Dermatopathol |volume=31 |issue=4 |pages=379-83 |year=2009 |month=June |pmid=19461244 |doi=10.1097/DAD.0b013e3181966747 |url=}}</ref>

**If ''tumour'' is understood as a synonym for ''neoplasm'', the name is a misnomer.
*25-35 years old.
**May (clinically) mimic a true neoplasm.
*Tibia, fibula.
*Due to hyperparathyroidism - usually [[parathyroid adenoma]].
*Benign, may be locally aggressive.
*Cousin of [[ameloblastoma]]. (???)
