Tumeurs cartilagineusesLes tumeurs cartilagineuses sont des pathologies rares, dont la découverte est souvent fortuite sur une imagerie réalisée pour une autre raison. Parfois symptomatiques (douleur, raideur arti culaire, déformation, fracture), elles doivent motiver une explo ration clinique, radiologique, et histopathologique. La prise en charge dépend des lésions identifiées et peut comporter un simple suivi clinique ou un geste chirurgical complexe, fruit d'une discus sion menée par une équipe multidisciplinaire composée de radio logues, pathologues et chirurgiens. La découverte d'une lésion cartilagineuse induit souvent une dose d'inquiétude non négli geable chez les patients atteints. Leur connaissance, par le médecin traitant et le chirurgien orthopédiste, nous semble indispensable afin de proposer une prise en charge optimale qui devra se faire dans un centre spécialisé. Cartilaginous tumoursCartilaginous tumours are rare and often incidentally discovered on imaging. They can also be responsible for osteoarticular symptoms (pain, joint stiffness, deformity or fracture) and will require a clinical, radiological and a histopathological assessment. Depending on the lesion, the management may consist of observation or a complex surgical procedure that will take place after a multidisciplinary dis cussion including the radiologist, the pathologist and the orthopaedic surgeon. The discovery of such cartilage tumours often induces a sig nificant dose of anxiety in the affected patients. A better knowledge of these lesions by the family practitioner and the orthopaedic surgeon therefore seems very useful to provide optimal care before refer ring the patient to a specialized centre.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
