Abstract:
A chondroma is a benign bone tumor composed of mature hyaline cartilage which is slow growing and relatively rare. Most of the chonroma are found in the hand and foot, chiefly in the phalanges but is rare in the spine. We are reporting a case with severe radicular pain of the right arm and right paravertebral muscular atrophy in the cervical region.
