Abstract
The paraspinal region encompasses all tissues around the spine. The regional anatomy is complex and includes the paraspinal muscles, spinal nerves, sympathetic chains, Batson's venous plexus and a rich arterial network. A wide variety of pathologies can occur in the paraspinal region, originating either from paraspinal soft tissues or the vertebral column. The most common paraspinal benign neoplasms include lipomas, fibroblastic tumours and benign peripheral nerve sheath tumours. Tumour-like masses such as haematomas, extramedullary haematopoiesis or abscesses should be considered in patients with suggestive medical histories. Malignant neoplasms are less frequent than benign processes and include liposarcomas and undifferentiated sarcomas. Secondary and primary spinal tumours may present as midline expansile soft tissue masses invading the adjacent paraspinal region. Knowledge of the anatomy of the paraspinal region is of major importance since it allows understanding of the complex locoregional tumour spread that can occur via many adipose corridors, haematogenous pathways and direct contact. Paraspinal tumours can extend into other anatomical regions, such as the retroperitoneum, pleura, posterior mediastinum, intercostal space or extradural neural axis compartment. Imaging plays a crucial role in formulating a hypothesis regarding the aetiology of the mass and tumour staging, which informs preoperative planning. Understanding the complex relationship between the different elements and the imaging features of common paraspinal masses is fundamental to achieving a correct diagnosis and adequate patient management. This review gives an overview of the anatomy of the paraspinal region and describes imaging features of the main tumours and tumour-like lesions that occur in the region.

Abstract
Benign osseocartilaginous tumors of the spine are overall uncommon, representing between 1 and 13% of all primary bone tumors and less than 10% of all spinal tumors. Tumors in this category include osteoblastic lesions such as the related osteoid osteoma and osteoblastoma, and cartilage-forming lesions including osteochondroma, chondroma, and chondroblastoma. Aneurysmal bone cysts, giant cell tumors of bone, and eosinophilic granulomas also comprise benign tumors of the spine arising from bone. There is significant heterogeneity in the epidemiology, molecular biology, imaging features, and optimal treatment of these lesions. For example, osteoid osteoma is characterized by high expression of the cyclooxygenase enzymes, making it amenable to treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs initially, whereas other lesions such as osteoblastoma may require intralesional curettage or en bloc resection sooner. Generally, en bloc resection is preferred when possible to minimize risk of recurrence. Further, some tumors may arise in the setting of syndromic conditions, such as multiple chondromas arising in Ollier disease or Maffucci syndrome, or as part of genetic disorders, such as osteochondromas in the context of hereditary multiple exostosis. These lesions may present with local pain, cause neurological compromise or be discovered incidentally on routine imaging. The Enneking classification and Weinstein-Boriani-Biagini system are routinely used to classify lesions and assist in surgical planning. More novel techniques such as radiofrequency ablation and laser photocoagulation have been applied for the treatment of osteoid osteoma and may have utility in the treatment of other lesion types. A multidisciplinary approach is critical in the management of benign lesions of the spine, and both chemotherapeutic and surgical approaches are routinely used.

Geriatr Orthop Surg Rehabil 2022; 13:21514593211073028. [PMID: 35096462 PMCID: PMC8793394 DOI: 10.1177/21514593211073028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 12/17/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Spinal osteochondromas are rare, and approximately less than 5% occur as spinal lesions. We report the case of a solitary osteochondroma of the spine and review and update the literature on spinal osteochondroma, including surgical treatment and subsequent results. Case Description A 73-year-old female patient complained of a 10-year history of back pain and a 4-year history of right-side lower extremity radiating pain with paresthesia. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a bony mass arising from the inferior articular process (IAP) of L3, presenting with features of compressive spinal stenosis at the L3–L4 level. The treatment strategy included the complete marginal excision of the lesion through the posterior approach, as well as complete decompression of the spinal canal and nerve roots. The patient’s symptoms resolved after surgery, and histopathological examination identified the lesion as an osteochondroma. Review Results This review study included 168 solitary osteochondroma cases. The most commonly involved spinal level was cervical (51.8%), and the most frequent spinal anatomic column involved was the posterior column (70.8%). Radiculopathy accounted for 30.3% of all cases, myelopathy accounted for 31.0%, and 7.7% exhibited both symptoms simultaneously. The recurrence rate was 6.0%. Conclusion Computed tomography and MRI can effectively diagnose spinal osteochondroma, and surgical treatment can effectively improve clinical outcomes. In almost all symptomatic cases, the best treatment is marginal excision of the tumor. Complete resection of the cartilaginous cap of the tumor is especially important to prevent recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteochondromas are the most common benign bone tumor, accounting for 36% of benign bone tumors. Often found within the appendicular skeleton, osteochondromas of the spine are rare, comprising 4% to 7% of primary benign spinal tumors.
CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a solitary lumbar osteochondroma in an 18-year-old male with a history of a suprasellar pineal germinoma treated with combined chemotherapy and radiation. He underwent mass excision and partial laminectomy with the ultrasonic bone scalpel (Misonix, Farmingdale, NY, United States) at the L5 Level without the use of adjuvants. The patient returned to work and full activities without back pain at 3 mo postoperatively.
CONCLUSION Osteochondromas are common tumors of the appendicular skeleton but rarely occur within the spine. This case discussion supplements current osteochondroma literature by describing an unusual presentation of this tumor.

Abstract
Osteochondroma is described as a capped benign bony neoplasm that forms on the outer surface of bone. These tumors affect nearly 6 million people per year. Although osteochondromas most often involve the appendicular skeleton, many involve the spine, with many cases located in the cervical spine. When osteochondromas involve the spine, they can present with a variety of symptoms, including pain, radiculopathy, and myelopathy, which may necessitate surgical treatment. Spinal osteochondromas can be classified into 2 types: multiple osteochondromas in the context of patients with multiple hereditary exostosis (MHE) and solitary osteochondroma or solitary exostosis (SE). Previous reviews have captured only some of the available literature on cervical osteochondromas and have generally focused on either SE or those associated with MHE. The purpose of our review was to provide an extensive review of all previously reported cervical osteochondromas and to compare osteochondroma characteristics, clinical presentation, and outcomes in the context of MHE and SE.

Abstract
Context: Osteochondroma is the most common benign tumor of the bone, but spinal osteochondroma is rare. We report a case of cervical osteochondroma in multiple exostoses arising from the lamina of the C2 vertebra, presenting with features of compressive myelopathy in a 22-year-old male. Total resection of the tumor and atlantoaxial fixation and fusion after reconstruction of the C1 posterior arch were performed.Findings: The patient recovered significantly. He was asymptomatic and no sign of recurrence was observed after one-year follow-up.Conclusions: Osteochondroma should be considered as a rare cause of spinal cord compression. Entire removal of the tumor will result in complete decompression and can reduce the risk of recurrence. We provide a new approach to reconstruct after resection.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc calcification is rare in the pediatric population and is associated with sudden neurological manifestations. Although commonly symptomatic, conservative management yields excellent prognosis in the vast majority of cases. The following case illustrates the finding of intervertebral disc calcification in a patient with vertebral body segmentation anomaly consistent with Klippel-Feil Syndrome. As both entities are associated with potential neurological sequelae, this case of coexistent pathologies highlights the importance of recognizing the potential presence of intervertebral disc calcifications in pediatric Klippel-Feil Syndrome patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteochondromas are benign bone tumors which occur as solitary lesions or as part of the syndrome multiple hereditary exostoses. While most osteochondromas occur in the appendicular skeleton, they can also occur in the spine. Most lesions are asymptomatic however some may encroach on the spinal cord or the nerve roots causing neurological symptoms. While most patients with osteochondromas undergo laminectomy without fusion, laminectomy with fusion is indicated in appropriately selected cases of spinal decompression. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a 32-year-old male with history of multiple hereditary exostoses who presented with symptoms of bilateral upper extremity numbness and complaints of gait imbalance and multiple falls. He reported rapid progression of his symptoms during the 10 days before presentation. Computed tomography of the cervical spine revealed a lobulated bony tumor along the inner margin of the cervical 4 lamina. He underwent cervical 3 and 4 laminectomies, partial cervical 2 and 5 laminectomies and cervical 3-5 mass screw placement. Pathology was consistent with osteochondroma. The patient's symptoms had markedly improved at follow-up. CONCLUSION According to our literature review, osteochondromas most commonly occur at cervical 2 and cervical 5. We present a case of an osteochondroma at a less common level, cervical 4. While most osteochondromas are addressed with laminectomy without arthrodesis, the decision of whether arthrodesis is necessary should be considered in all patients with osteochondroma as with any cervical decompression.

Multiple osteochondromas of the cervical spine, a potential cause of radiculopathy in the elderly: A case report and review of literature. Int J Surg Case Rep 2020; 69:13-19.

Abstract
Osteochondroma is the most common type of bone tumor. It rarely arises on the cervical spine. It rarely occurs in the elderly. Although rare, it may be considered as a differential diagnosis of radiculopathy among the elderly.
Introduction Osteochondroma is the most prevalent type of bone tumour, often arising in the long bones. Most are found in the third decade of life, and rarely in the axial skeleton of elderly patients. This case report aims to highlight the possibility of this differential diagnosis in an elderly patient with symptoms of radiculopathy, aside from degenerative cause. Presentation of case A 76-years-old woman presented to the authors’ hospital with complaints of pain and numbness of the left suboccipital and preauricular region. There was hypoesthesia of left C2 and C3 dermatome without any signs of myelopathy. CT-scan and MRI showed an expansile bone lesion from the posterior arch of C1 and lamina of C2. The patient underwent laminectomy of C1 and hemilaminectomy of C2. Postoperative histopathologic examination showed the features of osteochondroma. Radiologic follow-up after nine months showed no sign of recurrence. After eighteen months, the patient was ambulatory with complaints of fingers numbness and moderate neck pain. Discussion Osteochondroma usually arises in long bone metaphysis. This lesion normally ceases to grow with growth plate closure, but other findings suggest it may continue to grow beyond skeletal maturity. About 29.5% of all osteochondroma of the spine would cause radiculopathy, and 27% would cause myelopathy. The cervical spine osteochondroma is usually treated by en bloc resection through posterior approach. Conclusion Osteochondroma of the cervical spine in the elderly is rare. However, this diagnosis could be considered as a possible cause of radiculopathy in this age group aside from other degenerative causes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this report was to describe the presentation of a patient with hereditary multiple exostoses and thoracic spinal cord compression from an osteochondroma. CLINICAL FEATURES A 31-year-old female presented to a chiropractic clinic with a history of hereditary multiple exostoses and back pain that had existed since the age of 16 years. She had a past medical history that was remarkable for 3 prior surgeries for mass removal. Examination revealed a left upper midscapular mass with decreased sensation. INTERVENTION/OUTCOME Magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and biopsy led to a diagnosis of osteochondroma. These diagnostic modalities confirmed that there was no malignant degeneration. Initial magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large expansive lesion involving the left posterior elements at the region of T3-T4. Subsequent thoracic hemilaminectomy and resection of the spinal tumor with posterior instrumentation and stabilization from T2-T5 resulted in 90% overall subjective improvement. CONCLUSIONS A detailed case history, thorough examination, guided advanced imaging, and biopsy provide important information for the diagnosis and appropriate treatment of expansive lesions in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses.
