disease development
Occurs when bits of cartilage from the physis that get incorporated into the bone begin to grow, producing a stalk in the bone
potential causes
epidemiology
risk factors
Autosomal dominant disease
labimaging
Histology? Cartilage cap, bone marrow inside
XR? Benign polypoid projections from cortical bone
conventional treatment
complications
