Update: Incidental Osteochondroma

As mentioned in the case of the 21-year-old male with localized Ewing sarcoma of the femur - see case app.figure1.com, we also identified an osteochondroma arising from the tibia and compressing the fibula.

The patient was completely unaware of this finding and is entirely asymptomatic.

Follow-up will be performed with periodic X-rays.
