Complicaciones de los osteocondromas

Abstract

Los osteocondromas o exostosis cartilaginosas son los tumores óseos más frecuentes, representando el 10-15 % de la totalidad. Parece ser más bien una alteración del desarrollo óseo más que un tumor verdadero. Suele tener una imagen radiográfica patognomónica. Los osteocondromas pueden ser solitarios o múltiples, estos últimos forman parte del síndrome de exostosis múltiples hereditarias, de transmisión autosómica dominante. Las complicaciones que pueden presentar, pueden ser óseas; deformidad del hueso donde asientan o fracturas del mismo, o de los tejidos que lo rodean, pudiendo provocar trastornos neurológicos, vasculares, bursitis, y la peor complicación, que es su malignización. Existen variantes de los osteocondromas como la exostosis subungueal, la displasia epifisaria hemimielica, y las exostosis en torreta y por tracción. Es importante conocer la apariencia radiológica de todos los tipos de exostosis, para diferenciarlas de sus posibles complicaciones.

Osteochondroma, also termed osteocartlaginous exostoses represents the most common bone tumors and is a developmental lesion rather than a true neoplasm. It constitutes 10-15 % of all bone tumors. Its radiologic features are often pathognomonic. Osteochondromas may be solitary or multiple, the latter being associated with the autosomal dominant syndrome, hereditary multiple exostoses. Complications associated with osteochondroma include deformity, fracture, vascular compromise, neurologic sequelae, overlying bursa formation, and malignant transformation. Variant of osteochondroma include subungueal exostosis, dysplasia epiphysealis hemimelica, turret and traction exostoses. Recognition of the radiologic spectrum of appearances of osteochondroma and its variants allow prospective diagnosis and differentiation of the numerous potential complications.
