Ollier disease: A case report and literature review

Abstract

Ollier disease is an uncommon disease characterized by several enchondromas and an asymmetric distribution of cartilage lesions, which can vary significantly in size, location, age, and gender. The primary symptom of this condition is a nonossifying chondrocyte mass or hamartomatous chondrocyte growth in the metaphysis of a short or long bone. Specific cases can progress to chondrosarcoma or osteosarcoma. X-ray is the most fundamental diagnostic technique for skeletal illnesses. In this article, we present a case of Ollier disease from Mother and Child Hospital IBN SINA, Rabat, Morocco.
