Unusual solid mass in the popliteal fossa.

Katharine Anne Smurthwaite1, Edward Barnard.   

Abstract

We present a clinical case image of a 20-year-old man with a lump behind his knee. A radiograph taken in the emergency department demonstrated the classical appearance of an osteochondroma. Osteochondroma is the commonest skeletal neoplasm. Surgical excision results in symptom resolution in over 90% of patients.
