Abstract:
OIiier disease is a rare nonhereditary disorder characterized by multiple enchondromas in which malignant changes may occur. We report the case of a 15-year-old male with Ollier disease who presented with a large mass in the left upper arm for several months. Radiography revealed hugelytic mass in the proximal half to two-thrids of the left humerus. Bone scan showed irregularly increased tracer uptake in the head to mid shaft of the left humerus that is suggestive of malignant disease. Pathology analysis demonstrated proximal humeral chondrosarcoma, grade 1. In Ollier disease, bone scan may be used for monitoring the lessions with suspicion for malignant transpormation.
