Chondroblastoma

CT confirms the plain film appearance of the previous image, revealing a sharply demarcated epiphyseal lucent lesion but with faintly sclerotic margins. It transgresses the growth plate into the anterior part of the metaphysis. There is no periosteal reaction. The presence of a lucent lesion involving both sides of an open epiphyseal plate (as seen here) is diagnostic of chondroblastoma. Case produced with permission, courtesy of Dr. Frank Gaillard.
