.El osteocondroma o exostosis cartilaginosa es el tumor óseo más frecuente, representando el 10-15% de la totalidad. Alrededor del 3% de la población lo padece. Es un tumor propio de individuos jóvenes con ligero predominio en varones. Puede ser solitario o múltiple, formando parte del síndrome de exostosis múltiple hereditaria. Suele ser un hallazgo accidental, normalmente asintomático, cuya localización más frecuente es la rodilla, aunque puede aparecer en otras localizaciones. El diagnóstico se realiza por imagen radiográfica, que suele ser patognomónica, y el tratamiento definitivo consiste en la extirpación quirúrgica.
