Case Report Solitary osteochondroma of the pediatric cervical spine: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Osteochondroma of the cervical spine is rare. This is a report of an affected 9-year-old boy with no known familial predisposition for osteochondromas. Imaging revealed a sessile osteochondroma arising from the spinous process and a portion of the left lamina of the seventh cervical vertebrae. The patient was successfully treated with an en-bloc excision of the tumor. Histopathology confirmed that the tumor was an osteochondroma. A follow-up of five-year and five-month confirmed the positive outcome of the treatment with no signs of recurrence and resulting in patient satisfaction.
