Abstract
- Exostosis, or osteochondroma, represents the most prevalent primary benign bone tumor, often viewed as a developmental anomaly rather than a true neoplasm. This article presents 2 cases illustrating complications associated with tibial osteochondroma. The first case involves a 25-year-old patient with recurrent medial knee pain attributed to pes anserine bursitis secondary to tibial osteochondroma, managed successfully with surgical excision. The second case features a 15-year-old with similar symptoms and unsuccessful conservative management, highlighting the diagnostic challenges and therapeutic options for this condition. Discussion encompasses the clinical presentation, diagnostic modalities including MRI and ultrasound, and management strategies such as conservative measures, corticosteroid injections, and surgical excision. Recognizing and promptly managing complications like pes anserine bursitis in tibial osteochondroma is crucial to prevent chronic pain and functional impairment, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach involving orthopedic surgeons, radiologists, and physical therapists.<br /> (© 2024 The Authors.
