“…Malignant transformation in enchondromatosis is estimated to occur in 25-30% of the patients [2,20], in a recent study up to 40% [15]. In our reported literature it was between 20% and 45.8% in pre-existing enchondromatosis, and ranged between 52% and 57.1% in patients with a Maffucci syndrome (Table 1).…”

“…Of all patients diagnosed with Ollier disease, malignant transformation is believed to occur in 10-20% [14] and a recent study recorded the development of one or more chondrosarcomas in 40% of patients with Ollier diseases and Maffucci syndrome, respectively [15].…”

“…Clinical problems caused by enchondromas include pain, fractures, and skeletal deformity. There is a potential for malignant progression to chondrosarcoma that may be greater than 50% in some cases of multiple enchondromatosis (i.e., Maffucci syndrome) (3)(4)(5)(6)(7). Many chondrosarcomas are thought to derive from enchondromas, and such sarcomas are termed central chondrosarcomas (3).…”
