Subperioseial Recurrence of Chondroblastoma
Radiology Case Reports, 11/10/09

Haygood T et al. – The authors present a case of subperiosteal recurrence of chondroblastoma adjacent to the greater trochanter that was initially thought to represent septic arthritis of the hip in a 10 year–old girl. Soft tissue recurrence of chondroblastoma is very rare with less than ten cases reported in the literature. The authors demonstrate the recurrence on both CT and MRI. The MR clearly demonstrates the soft tissue recurrence and the associated inflammatory changes, with signal characteristics not unlike the primary tumor.
